Baked Ham for CNN

Did anybody bother to read the memo?

1. The outlets are rotating out of physical office space within the Pentagon. Nobody is 'banned' and all outlets are free to report the same as they were before.

2. The outlets rotated out will have an opportunity to be rotated back into the physical office space in the future.

It's a convenience that the outlets being rotated out have enjoyed a monopoly on. Now, outlets will take turns with that convenience.
 
I don’t think anyone should agree with this.

If you want to add in conservative “news“ sources, that’s fine, but to remove the only people that are going to be critical of the work the government does, has been proven throughout history to be a really bad idea.

Does anyone think any of those news organizations that are now in are going to be critical of Donald Trump, Pete, Hegseth, or anything regarding the administration? The purpose of the media is to report about what government is doing at the every day citizen doesn’t see.
Sure does not seem like any of those organizations leaving have been critical of the government the last four years. But I am good with a mix. Honestly, what I would really love is just news. Not conservative news. Not liberal news. Just present the facts. Let the people forn their own opinion. But that was America of many years ago when the press was important to hold government accountable. Now the press mostly attacks conservatives and protects liberals.

And I am pretty conservative, but I am not a fan of echo chambers.

But Fox News has never had anyone lie on air?

How much did they pay out again for spewing nonsense about a stolen 2020 election?

It’s a free country, but I would recommend being concerned with the truth, rather than “owning the other side”.

That is a common comeback from the lefties here. I always find it funny. I am not saying you are a lefty. They all lie on air. The lawsuit payout had way less to do with what they lied about, and more to do with no wanting to expose internal emails and text messages. Because the next comeback is always. No way. Ole stephanopolis and his group had to payout money and apologize for lies about trump. They didn’t settle because of the lie, but for the same reason. They didn’t want to have anyone see their internal communications. Rachel madcow has been sued for this several times as has Anderson cooper.

Dominion ironically was proven to be very hackable. Not by pubs. But by a democrat lawsuit headed by a group backing Killary.

Thank you moose. That makes more sense.

Makes sense. Haven’t seen MSM whining, so must not be a big deal
Those being moved did and the memo is an update/response....basically said dozens (80?) of other media orgs are able to report without the space, so deal with it. But, they are allowing secure storage space for cameras and other equipment....basically trying to make it as easy and equal for all.

Clearly, very dictator-y

Nice deflection.
 
Page one of The Dictator’s Playbook.

Control the news to the masses.

It is working quite well for Trump’s buddies, Vlad and Kim Jun Un.
Is that why the Biden admin had all left wing and military industry press in there? Possible exception for The Hill, which is close to center.

All still have the same access, just not permanent office space. Use of that space to be rotated among news agencies.

Oh no, sir. Trump is a dictator because (*checks notes*) Trump is providing a temporary/rotating physical desk for Newsmax & creating a secure storage space so that CNN & others can store their equipment, for ease of use.

I guess he'll ban Jim Acosta...wait...no, that was CNN. What about Chuck Todd?!?!? Wait, no. Again...he left on his own.

Damn it. When is Trump going to start sending journalists to internment camps like I was promised, if he won?!?!?

This supposed facism I was promised is a great big dud. All he's doing is reducing government waste, within the bounds of executive power. I will not be satisfied until he is actually threatening democracy!

/sigh

I will be unable to sleep until I am convinced that Ugandan Trans Theatre Groups are protected from climate change and misgendering.

it's $64.8M well-spent, right?

Practically Hitler™
 
Exactly. Let them report on the Trump presidency and if people don’t like it, they’ll vote the republicans out. Sounds fair.

But to be banning the only media that would be critical is 1) completely unethical, 2) stupid, and 3) goes against what our founders stood for. It’s simply in-American.
They are not “Banned” they are rotated annually. Have to say that this process is better. They can report all they want, but their ability to ‘control” the narrative the way the have - has now been substantially reduced imo.

Tivoli sounds awfully like a certain poster I used to banter with (and like) who I haven’t seen here in months. Hhhmmmm.

So frustrating watching so called MSM push agendas and flat out lie. Christen Welker on Face the Nation claimed Trump said he wanted to “permanently remove Palestinians from Gaza”. There should consequences for harmful innacurate statements like these.
