Those are not "real journalists" they are false prophets. We saw in the OT The Kings surrounded by false prophets. This has been what it has been about for thousands of years, stop trying to think that things are worse now than before. This is why it is the honor of God's people to speak the truth.

Just to announce. Bro zeek will likely be offline for awhile. As the evil archangel hurricane Michael is bearing down on him. Keep him in your prayers, for reasons other than he's a heathen.

Trump would love to be able to do that. Why are the Saudi's still allies?

Really! How do you know that! Do you realize how outrageous your comments about someone else's country are?

I'm generalizing and hypothesizing, that if Trump was in charge of Saudi Arabia.... I should have said some Trump supporters who take his views too seriously, he himself would never do that. Trump hates the fake news media however.

I missed the hypothesis. Trump's accusations of "fake news" are not without merit. NYT and many media outlets were completely wrong about the election, so much so that it does smack of bias.

The NYT is "failing" and Trump's election has helped their circulation.

CNN is also failing and can attribute a virtual doubling of their ratings to Trump.

That said, he has shown an unrealistic bias against anything that is critical of him or his administration. Anyone elected president whether Obama or Trump should expect that half the country will not be happy and will be inclined to criticize.

The founders of the US were not so naive as to not realize the media is used as a mouthpiece for the rich and powerful. However, they felt the best defense was not the common practice of the "king" imprisoning and executing any and all who were critical. Rather they felt let everyone have the freedom to speak. 67% will be variations of lies, innuendo, inference and various forms of brainwashing and spin. However for the most part they will cancel each other out. Then with the remaining third you will have those who are not the mouthpiece, nor are they well paid, nor are they "elite media" but they are motivated for the truth. So whereas the elites have a top education in training how to push your agenda while appearing unbiased, these ones have the truth. Our system is based on the belief that the "darkness shall not overcome the light".

It takes a top notch education to figure out how to make Satan look like an angel of light, on the other hand speaking the truth does not require it but not being ignorant of Satan's devices does.

Why are you not "generalizing and hypothesizing" that the Australian Government is responsible for what happened in Turkey?

Millions of people hate "fake news," the staple of hypocrites and their ilk.
