For instance, one official was having a conversation with a Daily Beast reporter on Friday morning when the reporter interrupted the official to inform them that Trump was on Twitter again.
After a brief pause to check Twitter, the senior Trump aide informed of the unfolding rant, responded, “Jesus.”
Multiple White House sources confirmed to The Daily Beast earlier reports that the president was “furious” in the aftermath—causing aides to spend the rest of the week drawing as little attention to themselves as possible.

“People are keeping their heads down,” another official said, describing the White House comms shop as dispirited and fearful of Trump’s ire.

White House sources told The Daily Beast this week that Trump was not accepting excuses from staffers that they were kept in the dark and therefore didn’t have sufficient time on Tuesday to come up with a coherent strategy and messaging.

Officials spoke to The Daily Beast on the condition of anonymity so as to speak freely.
The White House press shop did not respond to multiple requests for comment.

This is the reason more and more people are ignoring the MSM and their continued "anonymous sources" fiction!
How in the hell do we KNOW that this is truly an "anonymous source"?

With the MSM continuing this "gotcha", "anonymous source" "reporting" they are performing a gross
disserve to the public.

There is truly nothing that can be done about this except more and more people are growing more and
more distrustful of the MSM and their "anonymous sources"!
30% of the "Independents" polled trusted the media
51% of Democrats and
14% of GOP.
Think about it. We have the MSM doing everything under the sun to protect Obama/Hillary and the Democrats and only 51% Trust them!
That speaks volumes of how badly the MSM has performed over the last 4 presidents!

Poll: Mainstream media continues to lose the public's trust

Anonymous sources are a legitimate practice. The reason you don't like them is because they tell the truth about Trump.
Another poll from Quinnipiac. I am using only independents since the Republican and Democrats are predictable.

Do you approve or disapprove of the way the news media has covered President Trump?
Approve 36%
Disapprove 61%

Do you approve or disapprove of the way President Trump talks about the media?
Approve 29%
Disapprove 69%

Who do you trust more to tell you the truth about important issues: President Trump or the news media?
Trump 27%
Media 57%

The fact is that independents who have no horse in this race disapprove of the media's conduct but they disapprove of Trump's attitude even more and they trust the news media than they do Trump.

QU Poll Release Detail

When the dinosaur communist left wing media says "anonymous sources".......

any time they say anonymous sources you have to immediately know it is the shadow deep government in some factions of the CIA.

In other words the globalists scum inside the CIA.

I am amazed that they let you out of the looney asylum as you are a real looney tune. The only shadow deep government is the one in your head.

These same polls that Hillary would win in a landslide...


Those polls?

You idiot.

Quinnipiac correctly predicted that Clinton would win the popular vote. You IDIOT.

 

[AsianTrumpSupporter]

It's complete bullshit and shows that liberals got nothing on Trump.

 

[healthmyths]

The media has used anonymous sources since the media has existed. I'll go out on a limb and guess that you had no complaints when a Democrat was in office.

the only time its appropriate is when dealing with whistle blowers.

it's just another symptom that the media no longer functions as a free press, but as a political party and propagandists...OSING as journalists.

Why are the trump supporters and trump himself constantly demanding changes in traditions, rules, and practices that have served America for decades and even centuries? Do your dispute that Thomas Paine wrote and published "Common Sense" to promote the Revolutionary War as an anonymous publication? The United States was actually started with anonymous sources in what was the media of that time period.

Again NONE of your comments have any substantiating attributions. Why? Too lazy or are there NONE?

Primarily because over the years the MSM through liberal education have become less objective and more biased.
As I pointed out WHY did the MSM NOT alter Clinton's "Liberation of IRAQ Act" until GWB a GOP when they changed one word ... to "INVASION"!
Advertising works. Why else would billions of dollars be spent to alter perceptions?
So to has the MSM. Altering perceptions that GOP bad...Democrats Good. It is that simple!
FACT: and don't say it isn't true because YOU have done NO substantiation for your observations...just subjective biased opinion!

As first 100 days in office approaches, media coverage of Trump is 89% negative:
“As President Trump approaches the end of his first 100 days in office, he has received by far the most hostile press treatment of any incoming American president, with the broadcast networks punishing him with coverage that has been 89 percent negative,” wrote Rich Noyes and Mike Ciandella, both analysts for Newsbusters.org, a conservative press watchdog. In a new study, the pair pored over evening news coverage on ABC, CBS and NBC from Jan. 20 through April 9 — over 1,000 stories focused on Mr. Trump and his new administration. That amounted to 1,900 minutes of total airtime. Only 186 minutes were positive in content or tone.
Donald Trump media coverage is 89 percent negative, as first 100 days in office approaches: Study

Yet this SAME MSM treatment of Obama treatment in his election and first 100 days?
AGAIN FACTS...not guesses, not biased JUST the facts!!

Comparatively, seventy-one percent (71%) of the coverage of Mr. Obama during the 2008 campaign was positive or neutral,
with only 29 percent (29%) negative, according to a Pew Research Center study.
Media double standard revealed in Trump ‘16 vs. Obama ‘08 coverage

And this was just the election!
So how about Obama's cushy first 100 days compared to Trump!
As he marks his 100th day in office, President Barack Obama has enjoyed substantially more positive media coverage than either Bill Clinton or George Bush during their first months in the White House, according to a new study of press coverage.
Overall, roughly four out of ten stories, editorials and op ed columns about Obama have been clearly positive in tone, compared with 22% for Bush and 27% for Clinton in the same mix of seven national media outlets during the same first two months in office, according to a study by the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism.
The study found positive stories about Obama have outweighed negative by two-to-one (42% vs. 20%) while 38% of stories have been neutral or mixed.
Pew: Media treatment of Obama much more positive than Bush, Clinton - Hot Air
Almost 9 of 10 stories are negative regarding Trump BUT
Less then 6 of 10 stories were negative regarding Obama... probably because the MSM was afraid they'd be called RACIST!!!

Are you serious?
Substantiating attributions? The writings of Thomas Paine were used by the founders. including George Washington to promote the Revolution. "Common Sense" was read in public squares and taverns, churches and community gatherings. If you can not find Thomas Paine and his published work "Common Sense" there is something drastically wrong with you. It is a historical fact he printed his works anonymously. These are facts found in history books and online histories of the American Revolution. Substantiating attributions, if Thomas Paine and his publication Common Sense is not a substantiating attribution to your way of think, nothing is.

Anonymous source is double dimwit speak for fake.

Like Trump's 'stories' about what 'Lots of people are saying.?"
