Suggestion that politicians need to present their speeches for approval of the networks

[hislegacy]

The President can speak freely. In fact, he speaks freely all the time. But, unlike a dictator, he cannot order any media to broadcast his baloney.

Which is why he isn’t.

Correct. Tweet away, Mr. Trump. Don’t hold back! Tell the world what’s really rattling around in
your brain!

They no longer just report the news, now it has to be approved. Putin would be so proud.

Putin would be proud? It works the other way around in Russia...

What court has given the press the right to limit anyone’s free speech?

They didn’t call out Barack (don’t use my middle name) Obama for lying to the citizens and costing us millions and millions of dollars.

They don’t police themselves when they bold face make things up and lie to the public.


Maybe someone should censure what they say before it is printed or said on air

I don’t think you understand what “free speech” is.

Putin would be proud ... of Trump:
“President Trump on Monday suggested the government start its own television network as he voiced frustration with the way CNN in particular has covered his administration.

"Throughout the world, CNN has a powerful voice portraying the United States in an unfair and false way. Something has to be done, including the possibility of the United States starting our own Worldwide Network to show the World the way we really are, GREAT!" Trump wrote on Twitter
