It is difficult to equate a “free press” with the dishonest Mainstream
Media that produces negative propaganda round-the-clock. Legal Insurrection has
the latest anti-Trump strategy:
Since election day in 2016, various media outlets have attacked
Trump and his supporters on a near daily basis. Yet when Trump refers to fake
news as an enemy of the people, they become outraged and claim he is attacking
the free press.
The Boston Globe has decided to organize
a protest in print, proving once again that the media thinks it is part of the
resistance. Brian
Stelter of CNN is pretty excited about this:
More than 100 newspapers will publish editorials decrying
Trump’s anti-press rhetoric
“The dirty war on the free press must
end.”
That’s the idea behind an unusual
editorial-writing initiative that has enlisted scores of newspapers across
America.
The Boston Globe has been contacting
newspaper editorial boards and proposing a “coordinated response” to President
Trump’s escalating “enemy of the people” rhetoric.
“We propose to publish an editorial on
August 16 on the dangers of the administration’s assault on the press and ask
others to commit to publishing their own editorials on the same date,” The
Globe said in its pitch to fellow papers.
The effort began just a few days ago.
As of Saturday, “we have more than 100
publications signed up, and I expect that number to grow in the coming days,”
Marjorie Pritchard, the Globe’s deputy editorial page editor, told CNN.
The rest of the report is here. Sad to see that cleveland.com
is on board the anti-Trump Train, such as here. Let's see if it runs an editorial tomorrow.
