Trump will 'will go directly to the American people, right over the top of the mainstream media'

The concept of a free press and its position as the Fourth Estate is history.

They are bought and paid for.

Liars for Hire.

Ben Hecht once said "Socially, a journalist ranks somewhere between the madam of a whorehouse and a bartender. but spiritually he ranks with Galileo, for he knows the world is round.”

While this was once true, now the graduate of a "Media Studies" program is ideologically programmed.

A whorehouse worker ready to satisfy the dollar.

News is a commodity. We get what someone else pays for.

Correct, with the $$$ the real owners paid for the media, they are pissed. You and I are in a vast sea of ignorance. But with the Trump election win the real power of the country took it on the chin.
Everyone thought HRC had this, it was just an inconvenience for her to faint all over the US and have to talk to us little people.
I honestly believe she has a true disdain for us, and her 1,500,000,000 that her handlers spent is coming due. And where is their usual back door access?

Why do you think they are pissed he uses Twitter?

Because they fail to understand that Trump is the President. He doesn't take orders from them. They're control freaks that want to shape the masses opinions. They can't censor Trump either.

Maybe Trump should open up his own forum. Then his followers could go there instead of the censored Twitter, Face book etc etc. They could also possibly inform him of things, or offer ideas. Instead of the 3 letter agencies.

Thank you for undermining America's faith in the First Amendment. Trump's masters will no doubt reward you.
