Ezra Klein NAILS a major problem with the media and Trump here

[Quixote1818]

Around the 6:30 mark into the video they bring up all the falsehoods and insults Trump made at his campaign rally in Montana. Klein then brings up that it happened on a day when the EPA's unbelievably corrupt, scandal ridden chief resigns and on a day they name Bill Shine, corrupt FOX News executive, ousted for covering up decades of sexual assault within Fox News, to a deputy chief of staff position in the White House. Donald Trump knows on any night like that he can mount a stage and act like an ass and the media will rush to cover it. Then he is back on fertile ground of, they are against me, bla, bla, bla... Klein goes on that we need to stop Trump from being the media's assignment editor.

We the audience need to put pressure on the news to cover the important stories and NOT let Trump keep playing the media like a fucking top!

1. "Donald Trump knows on any night like that he can mount a stage and act like an ass and the media

will rush to cover it”. Oh no, finally CNN AND MSNBC DID NOT COVER THAT SHIT IN BIG SKY COUNTRY........just saying....

2. It just gets talked about non stop afterwords.

However, I do think the media is catching on an realize there is an urgency now to the threat and they need to start taking their jobs a bit more seriously or we could lose our democracy.

3. The networks are intent on repeating what is said on FOX. Sad.

4. Klein is right. The MSM helped put him in office, and

they jump the minute he starts ranting. What if he had a rally and only Faux covered it! Everyone else? Meh.

5. This is just another manifestation...

...of how the media ceaselessly fawned over Donald Trump during the campaign.

They ignored the worst FACTS about him and exaggerated the worst rumors about Hillary Clinton as hard news.

And don't you think for one second that 2020 won't be an exact rerun of 2016.

WE have to be the news nedia.

RESIST!
