Breitbart is admitted conservative media. No one cares if partisan media is partisan.

Was Brietbart media acting like an opposition party when Obama was in office? Or were they doing their job properly? Either way you answer this, Steve Bannon is being hypocritical.
No one gives a frick if Slate or Huffpo is biased.
But obstinately "professional" journalism organizations like the NYT and CNN are just exactly as Bannon described: the opposition party.

Wow what?
You disagree that the press is terrible at its job? If so, why?

HOW THE frick DO THEY KNOW IT'S FALSE?! BECAUSE THEY SAY SO?!
Could have just printed "the president’s claims". But noooooooo, had to throw that "false" in there.
Typical liberal lies in an article.

I agree it's absurd to categorically say Trump's claims are false. It's editorializing under the guise of news.
Of course, it's equally absurd for Trump to throw out unsubstantiated figures. I know why he's doing it, but that doesn't make it any less absurd.

It is very much an attribute of a facist. So is nationalim, isolationism, authoritarian declarations, white pride...etc. bannon is a threat to our democracy.

It's almost as if the NY times doesn't realize they are the media.
Case in point
The Democrats will never win another election again, as long the media is doing what media does.

quote:
During a call to discuss Sean M. Spicer, the president’s press secretary, Mr. Bannon ratcheted up the criticism, offering a broad indictment of the news media as biased against Mr. Trump and out of touch with the American public. That’s an argument familiar to readers of Breitbart and followers of Trump-friendly personalities like Sean Hannity.

A lesson in why you shouldn't act better than anyone else in life, especially when there are more of them than there are of you.
Folks of all voting backgrounds are now enjoying watching the media fail...maybe the blowback wouldn't have been so harsh if they were more humble in the beginning and treated the common folk with respect?

The rights obsession with the media is one thing, but when you're actually the President of the United States or one of his close advisors is it too much to ask that you focus more on running the country than whining about the media literally every day or every other day? You have plenty of right wing media who spent most of their time on this as it is.

And that thing is trying to get roughly fair coverage, but if not that, at least calling the media out.

Why? If the media is the opposition, it would be unilateral disarmament to back off.
And it hasn't seemed to slow Trump down at all yet.
