AMEN. Fox hates Trump. Just look at the daily reportage in the Wall Street Journal.

Maybe FOX has a little less fake news , but remains controlled by the same media conglomerate that hates TRUMP.

Not only honest reporting of the facts and exact quotes, but these reporters and journalists must behave respectfully and civil. Many are very rude and nasty. Horrible behavior. The President has the power to ban them and any person who behaves in an uncivil and crude manner.

Had Trump attempted to shut down CNN and MSxxx, that would be a violation of the First Amendment, but he did no such thing. They are still free to operate. Many other news organizations have no access to the White House, so why are they entitled to such access? This seems like a no-brainer to me, but it is alarming how confused so many are about what Freedom of Speech actually means.

A press credential doesn’t give its holder unrestricted access to the president. Government control of the premises doesn’t 100% settle how officials may distribute access, but the Leftist press won't tell you that it MOSTLY covers these issues. Why? Because their opponent is TRUMP. The Sherrill specifically addresses White House credentials and prohibits ARBITRARY or content-based criteria. That is not present here. There are real, TRUE AND FALSE, reasons for the expulsion of several outlets. Here is a devastating short list:

-Trump–Russia reporting: Coverage of alleged collusion as promoting a “Russia hoax.”

-Hunter Biden’s laptop: Coverage presenting the laptop controversy as Russian disinformation.

-COVID-19 origins: Outlets helped to suppress scrutiny of the laboratory-origin hypothesis and Anthony Fauci.

-Trump’s impeachments: Networks acted as participants against Trump rather than independent observers.

-Negative coverage overall: Media Research Center reported that 92% of evaluative statements about Trump’s second administration were negative during its first 100 days.

Precedent also requires notice, an opportunity to respond, and a written decision explaining the denial. No one took away the outlets' right to appeal. They can. And if they show us that COVID actually began in a wet market, then they can get their press passes back!

Free speech does not mean I am required to speak to anyone I do not care to converse with !

The White House press should be moved across the street on the White House Campus… The pool for Kennedy’s victims should be re-established or turned int valueable office space… Similarly the press should be kicked off Air Force 1…

Why give the anti-Nixon, anti-Reagan, anti-Bushes, anti-Trump; Brinkley’s and Acosta’s biased propagandist license and gravitas to indoctrinate from the White House pulpit… Local affiliates can cover the President in Omaha or a reporter can sent ahead to Athens… We create these arrogant omniscient fools, why give an alter for them to preach their cancer to consume half the nations only news message

Any rotating pools should give ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, WAPO, NYTimes their fair turn amongst podcasters, utubers, Christian networks, Conservative networks, conservative radio, conservative print… When you treat networks violating FCC law and license obligations, special, they are forever considered the U.S. sources of news… Daily Wire, Joe Rogan, Trish Regan, Washington Post, Dan Bongino, Breit Beir, Blaze should get equal opportunities in rotation to determine topics and make news… The message Big Tech trumpets… Many of the listed have larger audiences then dinosaur networks… New media and conservative media must have equal opportunity to make the White House News… Kaitlyn reigns supreme, her topics and questions making news, until she only gets a question every two weeks in a fair distribution… OAN, Newsmax, Larry Elder might break a story

Stop aggrandizing these low life vermin hacks with invites to White House dinners, balls, concerts… The White House and Air Force One should be invitation only, a rare, sought after treat…

The President can ride a golf cart through a tunnel under the street to the new beautiful press pool facility… Presidential Press conferences in a state of art conference room… Reporters can cross the street in the rain for White House appointments only, then empty their pockets and be scanned

FNC must back CNN, MSNBC… The next Democratic Administration will toss FNC the only conservative TV channel with mass audience… FNC will need CNN and MSNBC to show similar support

Tossing them all and controlling access and message is much more elegant… Playing perpetual defense, question after question, follow up after follow up, in your own home is insane… Notice the immediate difference in Ukraine, the moment permitted after years, to fire back into Russia… Why sit under shells, only only you and your country or party being ruined
