News Outlets Banned

[Islay]

From Whitehouse news conference BBC, CNN, New York Times and LA Times. Is this the correct way for the white house to behave?

No answer to my question then I take it Sam ?

[mikey4444]

Still no answer then it would appear Sam !

You either support free speech or you don't....it isn't rocket science you know !

[Islay]

Mikey, don't respond to the click bait please.

[mikey4444]

Islay....yes, you are probably right....I will just have to presume that as Sam is a Trump supporter, then he must also support the suppression of free speech !

[naomi24]

No news outlet should be banned, but that said there is without doubt an enormous witch hunt going on around Trump, and that, in my opinion, is shameful. Some of his critics here are just as dishonest as the media for clinging to minutiae and gnawing it to the bone.

[naomi24]

Samjenko, who, me? I wouldn't dream of censoring Mikey. What he posts says far more about him than it says about Trump. ;o)

[Jackdaw33]

A good job both Trump and UKIP are alive and well, otherwise Mikey would have nothing to post about.

[Islay]

Jackdaw, did you come on to make a reasonable point or just to have a dig at Mikey?

[mikey4444]

I was wondering at 08:29 this morning, where all the members of the AB Trump glee club were....it seems that they have surfaced at last and are supporting him in his attempt to censor the free press after all.

No surprise there of course !

[Jackdaw33]

Both, petal.

[anneasquith]

Here we go. A question about trump but the usual abers using the thread to trade insults !!!!!!

[anotheoldgit]

I apologise for the introduction of 'Godwin’s Law'.

But back then, wouldn't it had been in order to ban Joseph Goebbels and Lord Haw Haw from allied news conferences or would that have also been the suppression of free speech?

[mikey4444]

Empty vessels Islay, just empty vessels.

People who can't and/or won't defend Trump. always start attacking the messengers.

[Samjenko]

Two and half billion, yes billion, dollars are spent on lobbying politicians in Washington every year. Global companies no longer want government to stay out of their business, they expect them to be partners.
There are going to be major prosecutions coming shortly. The corrupt swamp-dwellers have co-opted the corrupt press to smear Trump at every opportunity. Anyone who 'buys into it' will be left with egg on their faces, big time.

[Islay]

It was a simple question Trump was not mentioned yet it has turned into a slagging match again. Is it because I posted or is it the subject?

[naomi24]

Mikey, you can't possibly be referring to me. I said "No news outlet should be banned" - but then I know you rarely read other people's posts properly.

[mikey4444]

AOG....are you feeling OK this morning ?

I don't recall Hitler ever giving press conferences...he was far too busy committing genocide and conquering Europe at the time !

[naomi24]

Mikey, //People who can't and/or won't defend Trump. always start attacking the messengers. //

Would they be the members of the glee club you mentioned? Oh, the irony!
