During Press conference Trump told CNN reporter they were biased fake news. I LOVE IT!

Since the election, when I get up in the morning, rather than instanty getting angry over the constant Liberal bias from most of our media, I get a smile on my face watching Trump show them up for their blatant bias.

Republicans never had the guts to speak out against the power of the biased Liberal media. They feared the bully pulpit of the media ruining their political careers.

Trump has no such fears. He says it like it is no matter the fallout. It's such a breath of fresh air to see such candor. Americans elected him because of this, no matter how coarse he can sound at times. We want a leader who put's America first, not an apologist to the world.

Americans are crying out for leaders who will be honest to them and simply say it like it is and not be beholden to the big money lobbyists that got them elected.

I'm still smiling from this election :)

What is your opinion of leaders in places like the UAE that have government-controlled press?

I hate government controlled press. It is what dictators do.

Arabs Governments are very controlling, much like this Obama regime.

Obama tried to exclude Fox news from interviews with certain people, but was stopped by other news organizations.

UAE makes homosexuality a crime.

Obama would fine a pubic school if they refuse to allow boys in the girls bathrooms.

There are many ways to be a controlling Government.

Before Obama, America allowed freedom of our pubic schools and States to keep their own sovereign laws and policies.

Liberalism is a very dangerous ideology to our freedoms. Free speech is only afforded the right kind of speech. Conservative speakers and speech in Colleges today are being censored.

And you see no double standard in the way you are pleased with Trump doing exactly what you 'hate?'

First and foremost I believe this whole thing about Trump destroying America is overrated and I presonally dont like trump. However, it was clearly obvious during the election campaign that the media threw their support behind Hillary Clinton. CNN is not the only one, but they are certainly one of the biggest. Their handling of many issues prior to this have also been a hot topic, I remember one of their hosts called a muslim professor a terrorist or something. Freedom of speech is critical to our society, but when the media tries to influence events they should certainly be blasted and even criminally held responsible. Once again I am not a Trump supporter, only a realist.

Difference between "biased" and "fake".

How can Trump and his supporters bash a news source for being biased whilst simultaneously supporting Breitbart and Fox?

When you show me news stoires that ANY group puts out as fact with no evidence, I will agree with you.

You see, Conservatives and Christians are secure people who try to live by a moral code of honesty and integrity. We have no problem admitting how it is wrong to lie and deceive people with fake news.

If Fox news purposely put out stories about Obama that are known to have no evidence behind them, I would not expect Obama to answer their questions on the subject as well.

Once again, there's a difference between "biased" and "fake" which many of the alt-right seem to not grasp.

I'm loving it, too. It's about time they "put baby in its place" and call it like like it is.
