Trump Puts the Media in its Place

by Robert Carbery

Donald Trump and the mainstream media are at war and have been since the start of his presidential campaign two Junes ago. Whatever shred of objectivity the media maintained in its reporting is long gone. The Left long ago infiltrated our major media companies and that is why today Americans’ trust in mass media is at all-time lows.  
 
With the Donald in the driver’s seat, the media still does not know how to deal with this new, unprecedented reality.
 
Last Saturday, the White House Correspondents Association dinner was without the presence of the president at last. In snubbing the liberal reporters who cover him, Trump revealed how out of touch our mainstream media elite is with the rest of Middle America. Even Press Secretary Sean Spicer didn’t feel the need to show up.
 
C-SPAN did not bother covering the coveted event, instead electing to show Trump’s raucous rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, a throwback to the enthusiasm surrounding his campaign that is still very much intact today after his first 100 days in office.
 
“A large group of Hollywood actors and Washington media are consoling each other in a hotel ballroom,” Trump began in his speech to thousands of Pennsylvanians, “I could not possibly be more thrilled than to be more than 100 miles away from Washington’s swamp … with a much, much larger crowd and much better people.”
Back at the DC Hilton, the press continued to prove how impartial they are. In a scripted remark, White House Correspondents Association President Jeff Mason said, “We are not fake news. We are not failing news organizations. We are not the enemy of the American people.” And yet, Americans continue to tune them out and look to other sources for their news. The people are sick and tired of the media spinning any story in an attempt to show Trump in a negative light. We are over it. Cover the facts and let the people decide for themselves.
But they have still not learned their lesson…
Conservative commentator and former adviser to multiple Republican presidents, Pat Buchanan, wrote recently: “Whatever happens to Trump, the respect and regard the mainstream media once enjoyed are gone. Public opinion of the national press puts them down beside the politicians they cover — and for good reason.”
The media and ruling political class in Washington have become one and the same. Each channel has its own ideology and agenda. Every news article masquerades as an opinion piece to feed a narrative detached from reality. This has led to the rise of alternative news sites following the many accusations of fake news throughout the presidential campaign.
Trump is under attack by the media as no other president has before. The mainstream media despises him and would love to see him ousted from office, as they assisted in helping boot Nixon.
The war on the media could result in a resounding victory for Mr. Trump. But it could very well end up in Trump’s departure from Pennsylvania Avenue. However this pans out, it will be an ugly road to get to the conclusion of this simmering conflict, which will likely not end entirely until Trump is no longer in the White House.
Donald is upending the status quo and putting the media in its place… at the bottom rung of relevancy.

    • If you want to write something positive about Trump right now about the only topic you can write about, that you can mention with a straight face, is that he stood up to the media.

    • I tend to agree – but that doesn’t make the corrupted media any better. They still lied about Iraq’s WMDs. They still lie about Assad allegedly using Sarin gas. They still use every opportunity they get to claim we need to bomb Iran or North Korea or obliterate Syria.
      The corrupted corporate media largely ARE fake news, and the fact that it’s Trump calling them out on it doesn’t change the fact.
      There’s exactly 0 issues on which I agree with the likes of Bush, McCain, Graham or Hitlery. There’s exactly 1 issue on which I agree with Trump, and that’s “the corporate media lies”. Sadly, other than calling them out on it, he doesn’t seem to be willing to do anything about it.
      Jail the warmongers who invent stories about WMDs and Sarin gas for accessory to murder!

  2. White’s letter he wrote to a close friend on August 31, 1960 during the Kennedy-Nixon campaign:
    “…it is all fraudulent, all of it, everywhere, up and down, East and West. The movies, radio and state and books and TV — all of them are fraudulent; and the foundations and universities and scholars, they are all fraudulent too; and the executives and the financiers … and the Commissars and the Krushchevs and the Mao Tze-tungs, they are fraudulent equally; it is all a great game; and there are two dangers in this great game: first, the fraudulent people come to believe their own lies, they come to have faith in their fraud; and second, underneath it all, because people are fundamentally good, they come to realize that we live in lies and the people get angrier and angrier and they may explode.
    The scenery of politics is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. Yet I must report all this as serious. This is the strain on me. That I must be serious, and I must exhaust myself trying to find out what is true and what is fraud and yet, even after I know, I must take them both seriously and write of them both as if I did not know the true distinctions between them.”
    The[se] remarks were apparently made by Swinton, then the preeminent New York journalist (Contributor – Editor NYT), probably one night in 1880. Swinton was the guest of honour at a banquet given him by the leaders of his craft. Someone who knew neither the press nor Swinton offered a toast to the independent press. Swinton outraged his colleagues by replying:
    “There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.
    There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone.
    The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press?
    We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”
    Unknown source :
    “The most effectual engines for [pacifying a nation] are the public papers… [A despotic] government always [keeps] a kind of standing army of newswriters who, without any regard to truth or to what should be like truth, [invent] and put into the papers whatever might serve the ministers. This suffices with the mass of the people who have no means of distinguishing the false from the true paragraphs of a newspaper.”

    “We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.” -David Rockefeller, Bilderberg 1991 (Baden-Baden Germany)
    http://www.activistpost.com/2017/03/american-corporate-msm-is-merged-with-cia-and-has-been-since-the-1950s.html connections between American mainstream outlets and the CIA are more than mere conjecture, they are well known and have been documented for some time. For instance, back in the late 1940s and early 1950s, Operation Mockingbird, a plan known to many researchers today but known to virtually no one at the time it was originally being implemented, was a secret CIA effort to influence and control the American media and, thus, to influence and control the information received (as well as the opinions) of the American people. The first report of the program came in 1979 in the biography of Katharine Graham, the owner of the Washington Post, written by Deborah Davis.[1]
    “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” William Casey CIA Director (from 1st staff meeting 1981)

    • You do realize that you will get some flack over this. Every time I speak the truth, I get bombarded with comments. They make me laugh when I get called anti-semitic, racist, and so on, just for stating true facts that people don’t WANT to believe.

      • If “they” are not mad I am not trying …………
        (no such thing as “antisemitism” because jews are not semites and semites is not a “religion” ………. but there IS PROGENTILISM)

        • Bonanza! It’s so nice to communicate with someone as informed as yourself.
          If the sheeple would just stop and think about it, it’s the people who they are afraid of offending that are the ones who are in control.

          • PROsemitic ——- what is it?
            If there is an “antisemitism” you must ask: “What is PROsemitism?”
            PROsemitism must be a supporter of “semitism”, which really means Judaism (though most Moslems are SEMITIC and most JEWS are NOT). So what are you supporting if you are a PROsemite? Well first of all we must define Judaism:
            Judaism is neither a race or a religion, it is Xenophobic Tribalism.
            XENOPHOBIC: n.
            A person unduly fearful or contemptuous of that which is foreign, especially of strangers or foreign peoples.
            TRIBALISM: n.
            1. The organization, culture, or beliefs of a tribe.
            2. A strong feeling of identity with and loyalty to one’s tribe or group.
            So right off the get-go you hate all NON-Jews, NON-members of YOUR group(TRIBE).
            THAT means, that if I am not one of the TRIBE, you do not like me.
            Since Jews BRAND all NON-Jews “gentile” automatically denigrating them, to be PROsemitic one must by definition be ANTI-GENTILE.
            They hate all NON-Jews so fundamentally, that they have to SPECIFICALLY name “RIGHTEOUS GENTILES”.
            Those are NON-Jewish HUMANS that went so far out of their way to help/save Jews that the Jews were FORCED to ACKNOWLEDGE the humanity of that specific ‘gentile”. You see, PROsemites do not acknowledge the EQUALITY of spirituality and humanity of “gentiles”
            According to the SPLC & ADL an organization is a “HATE GROUP” if it has
            “beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people”.
            Jews have HATED Egypt for 3,500 years.
            Jews have HATED Babylon for 2,500 years.
            Jews have HATED CHRIST and his followers for 2,000 years.
            David Ben-Gurion, one of the father founders of Israel, described Zionist aims in 1948: “A Christian state should be established [in Lebanon], with its southern border on the Litani river. We will make an alliance with it. When we smash the Arab Legion’s strength and bomb Amman, we will eliminate Transjordan too, and then Syria will fall. If Egypt still dares to fight on, we shall bomb Port Said, Alexandria and Cairo… And in this fashion, we will end the war and settle our forefathers’ account with Egypt, Assyria, and Aram “………….. read that again
            “and settle our forefathers’ account with Egypt, Assyria, and Aram”
            They are STILL HATING and planning deadly attacks after 3,500+ YEARS .
            How do you think they feel about JESUS CHRIST whom they HATE most of ALL.
            Israel’s MOTTOES:
            (1) NEVER forgive & NEVER forget.
            (2) By Way of Deception you will Do War.
            Their ONLY(monotheistic) “god” is a WAR god
            PROsemitism is ANTI-HUMANism

          • I have read that the Talmud states that the Goyim, and Jesus Christ should be boiled in semen, and punished forever.

  4. Pleassse, we are onto what is going on, please stop writing headlines that make it seem as though we are still back there in the dark struggling with our new Presidential reality. Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice shame on me, fool me three times, well, it does get old. Let’s just say, we aren’t fooled anymore and we do know full well, Hillary Clinton was never an option, she was always and will be forever just another goyim useless wannabe. Someday the truth will smack her upside her head, the truth is, even her husband, old Bill, was snickering as she “ran for office.” Not that I wanted Hillary the hag to be president, just like you folks I was all in on the Trump play, and hey we won, right? Trump and the Main Stream Media, including Alex Jones and others we think of as Alt Right Media, are in place, are in play, are just exactly what the Player’s really running the world want. So, please stop the ruse and let’s just call it like it is, everybody is and nothing really is, what you think it is.
