Trump Wants to Start a State-Run TV Network That Makes Him Look Good | TV Guide

it was about this tweet

"While CNN doesn't do great in the United States based on ratings, outside of the U.S. they have very little competition. Throughout the world, CNN has a powerful voice portraying the United States in an unfair and false way," Trump wrote. "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!"

The goal of this hypothetical network would be to give international audiences a more positive look at the United States government — and, presumably, its commander-in-chief. Trump didn't elaborate on what sort of programming a hypothetical government network would include. And while it's doubtful he'd allow unfiltered access to the Oval Office (if his track record with transparency is any indication), we can't deny that the former host of The Apprentice would keep things interesting.

no problem if private businesses wanted to expand internationally.... Murdoch or whomever....

BUT NOT STATE TV, not a government propaganda network.

When you turn a private industry into a partisan and anti-American propaganda network, you provide all the moral and ethical justification for a government alternative.


The ethical balance is obvious. What part of it do you not understand?


Oh, wait, Are you just saying shit to oppose something you know would be a huge benefit to the Nation, because you hate the country?

This is a bad idea. No. We don't need a state ran propaganda machine for Trump.

the fairness doctrine would solve the problem... news networks would be required to give all sides of the issue being reported on.

AND NO our founders did NOT WANT a government run press.... we have a FREE FROM GOVERNMENT press, a free press.... in this Nation, NOT a government run propaganda press like Russia, North Korea, Saudi Arabia and many other NON-FREE countries....

what is wrong with you?

 

[Care4all]

it would no longer be A FREE PRESS, where they can report on whatever they want, whenever they want....

it would be spitting in the face of our founders who knew the need for a FREE from GOVERNMENT PRESS, so much so that they gave constitutional protection to them...

we would be like Russia, or Saudi Arabia, or North Korea where the gvt controls the press and only tells us government propaganda and not the truth....

THAT'S WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT.

jimminee cricket, this abomination in the oval office needs to go somewhere else.... get out of the USA....

Moscow has plenty of fans of his, where he could live happily ever after!!!

The Obama administration has launched a new Web site to battle what it calls "wild rumors" about the health care reform plans being pushed through Congress -- including an invitation for the public to tattle on any other "myths" they come across.

It comes a week after the White House asked the public to send in "fishy" information about health care reform.


The Web site, activated Monday, uses the same set-up as the "Fight the Smears" page the Obama campaign maintained last year to battle rumors seen as potentially damaging to his candidacy.

do you have a link, pretty please.... I keep getting an error message from FOX when I click on the red highlighted spots....

1. Fairness doctrine? Your support of censorship is noted.

2. It is funny when liberals cite the Founding Fathers. If the Founding Fathers had to deal with liberals like we have today, they would have challenged you to a duel and fucking killed you. If not just bullwhipped you out of town as a degenerate.


3. Nothing in wrong with me. Trump raised a valid point about the effect the anti-Americanism of the American press is having on our international standing. You have not addressed it, because you cannot. It is self evident.

uhhhh, NO.... that isn't how it works.....

And President Trump would not need any of this if he would simply answer the press when they ask him for his comment on the news stories they do....

Every single news article written, he or his staff or someone in the admin press office is shown their article BEFORE IT GOES TO PRINT and asked if they want to comment or clarify their news story and THE Trump Team NEVER DO COMMENT..... the only administration that I know of that never gives their take?? It's baffling that they do not want their side or view be shown to all of the American people????

The only reason I can think of is if they do give comment like all other administrations, Trump thinks he then can't call it FAKE NEWS...... how petty and immature can you get?

 

[EvilCat Breath]

When democrats hear the word apparently, to those ignorant hemorrhoids it means cut in stone.
