Why are you celebrating this? It goes to defy everything that the conservatives have stood for. Let the press kill the messenger not the government.

The sad thing is the President probably thinks these childish antics will make the press stop.

CNN's spot should be given to conservativetreehouse.com. Replace the NYT with World Net Daily.

There was no briefing today, since the President was out in public making a Speech.

How bout the president not be such a thin skinned pussy.

Its laughable, with his shittastic record of lies and falsehoods to think he has any moral high ground to take against the media

Keep the fake news out. They already have their narratives and their stories are already written. They don't need access, they are so prescient.

Typical rightwing bullying and censorship of any free press that doesn't suck lying Donald's dick. Censorship of the press is how fascist dictatorships get started. Obviously, Donald doesn't like a free and independent media, just like his butt-buddy, Putin, who controls the media in Russia.

Who was the last president to bar major news outlets from a press briefing?

Oh right. No one.

Anyone who thinks this is a good thing or a smart move is a fool.

I disagree 100%. They know exactly what they are doing and know that CNN isn't going to stop. That's not what they want.

It's kinda funny and fricked up at the same time. If CNN wasn't all shills then I'd be more upset about this.

Besides, I'm not sure if you've noticed or not, there are plenty of liberal outlets to fill in any gaps left by CNN being left out today.

Say with a straight face that Breitbart is a more accurate and honest news outlet than the three that were banned.

Surely this is bait. No freedom loving American can honestly believe this and have an IQ over 50.

Impulsive move, classic Trump.

His base will love it though.

No.

But I also dont want a press corp that writes serious news articles about demonic activity at a Tump event on the same day they do a Twitter campaign accusing a Jewish White House Staffer of throwing white supremacist gang signs.

In other words, I want a press corps willing to report truthfully and without any bias, pro or con, towards the POTUS.
