If you don't like them, lock them up Kim Jong-un. Imagine Trump could do much of the same if he ever becomes President.

"Good news is Melania's speech got more publicity than any in the history of politics especially if you believe that all press is good press!". I guess that doesn't apply if it's negative reports about His Lordship. His attitude toward a free press speaks volumes on how he would govern if he were elected POTUS (God forbid).

He's a one-man Banana Republic.

not get any coverage at all. Too bad for him.

He made some comment I heard last night that he hardly spent any money on ads, blah blah blah...and all I could think was that he didn't need to, because the media gave him hours and hours of free air time all through the primary.

Ratings are obviously more important than journalistic integrity.
