Breitbart, OANN, Washington Times are all in White House briefing. CNN and NY Times (and LA Times) not allowed in.


Lying Donald and his fascist henchman Steve Bannon would have fit in quite well with the Nazis, who also put out lying propaganda and didn't believe in a free press.

I want a press corp that is not actively working for one party for the last half a century. But maybe that's too much to ask. Breitbart was allowed in though.


Hey, if Breitbart is right wing for 30 more years then President Kaepernick can ban them.

This is just trolling

I have no issue with CNN being trolled

I do have an issue with the WH making up shite all the time and then wasting time intentionally creating drama with the press

it's just not that amusing anymore because there will never be a payoff

CNN will never stop being shitty, MSM will never learn their lesson

This WH will never stop making shite up out of thin air and making dumb decisions

Why would you let a tabloid like CNN in?

Exactly. It seems counterintuitive to allow someone access when you know they will painfully twist any and all narratives about you to the negative.

It is wearing a little thin, isn't it. It's clear CNN doubles down no matter how foolish they look, and Trump can't seem to help himself.

Does the admin really have a need to get its message out to the people who consume Breitbart, OAN, and WT?


The only cohesive, animating feature of the conservative base is actual trolling. If a statement, action, or policy position (policy, how quaint) makes people they perceive as the enemy upset, they will be for it, no matter how much it conflicts with their previously held values or our historical values.

I'm sure you can appreciate the difference in occasionally granting exclusives and limited access to different news organizations (Fox got several, including a few one-on-one interviews with O'Reilly) and this petty bullshite that the president is pulling.

From your very article...

According to a source who saw the group leaving the Roosevelt Room, where the meeting was held, those present included John Harwood of CNBC and The New York Times, Juan Williams of The Hill and Fox News, and Washington Post columnists Eugene Robinson and Jonathan Capehart.

Whose job is it to troll the fricking media? Is that what people are paid for in this admin?

And if you have a problem with

then you have a problem with the trolling.

Ah censorship of the press. Goes against everything America stands for. And I'm tired of people saying,"Well Obama did it so it justifies Trump doing it too." No it doesn't, a wrong is a wrong period

Please. I am RELENTLESSLY honest. I also, unlike you, cede points and admit when I'm wrong. And while I am occasionally wrong,and often caustic, I am never intentionally dishonest (parody and spoof obviously not included).

It's kind of like watching Rubio in the primary. Ran really strong, starting playing with Trump, ended up looking really stupid.

Now Trump started strong, started playing really stupid games (not that this shocked anyone), and I'm not seeing the big victory on the horizon
