Fox news supports CNN

“Fox News supports CNN in its legal effort to regain its White House reporter’s press credential,” Fox News President Jay Wallace said in a statement. “Secret Service passes for working White House journalists should never be weaponized. While we don’t condone the growing antagonistic tone by both the President and the press at recent media avails, we do support a free press, access and open exchanges for the American people.”

Fox isn't wrong. They shouldn't revoke any press member's credentials. Quite frankly, live outbursts between Trump and the press only strengthens his base. Kind of strange Trump doesn't use that to his advantage more.

FYI Fox is the statist/corporate rent seeking arm of that part of the electorate. Most of the criticisms you have of it/ the section of the GOP it appeals to are probably shared by the portion of people who would call it "Left or liberal leaning". I won't pretend there aren't just also a bunch of nutters with this opinion though.

CNN needed to do something to compete with Nickelodean Channel during primetime vieiwing.

How will CNN respond when White House lawyers request they preserve all eamils containing the words Trump, Donald, Hope Hicks, Ivanka, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, etc. for discovery?

Fun times.

Bob Woodward says CNN is wrong

Now that the Walter Cronkites are gone, I'm so unsure, I can't believe it.

I see your Bob Woodward and raise you a Pat Buchanan therefore I "win" this argument.

One reporter berated the president and refused to surrender the microphone. Others shouted support for his antics. A third demanded to know whether Trump’s admission that he’s a “nationalist” would give aid and comfort to “white nationalists.”

By picking up the credentials of CNN’s Jim Acosta and booting him out of the White House, Trump has set a good precedent.

Freedom of the press does not mean guaranteed immunity of the press from the same kind of abuse the press directs at the president.

This is the reason Fox supports CNN. They need the Accosta clown show to make them look good.

How is denying a press pass to one news outlet while you grant 5 other press passes to that very same news outlet a violation of 1st Amendment Hondo?

I wasn't aware of the Jim Acosta clause in the Constitution.

Acosta is infringing on the ability, not the right, of other outlets to get a word in while he grandstands and makes speeches

The government is not infringing on his right to speak. They can control how a kick ass presser is held and those that break the rules can in fact be kicked out
