    Free means politically unaligned; but today the vast bulk of the mainstream media pretty much openly works for the DNC and thus they have become a bought and paid for collective propaganda outfit. WERE the MSM politically neutral then they would have used logic and facts to expose Hillary Clinton's involvement in the false Trump dossier and HOW it filtered through the anti-Trump RINO and Leftist hands of the upper levels of government and then ILLEGALLY used as a basis of a FISA warrant even though everyone but the judges knew that it was a false dossier. A truly free press would have done just that but not one working for the DNC.

    As a Republican, you fear the Democrats.

    As an independent, I hold both in contempt.

    What does the media intend to do about itself ?? That is the real question. Their conduct in the bogus "Trump is an agent of Putin" matter has been disgusting.

    In the first of the three photos the press was controlled by those totalitarians. In the US today the press has attempted to convey a false narrative about an elected President of the US in order to remove him from office. They truly are an enemy of the people.

    Why do you hold the Republicans in contempt for their conduct in the Mueller Investigation time period ??

    I hold the Republicans in contempt for much more than that. I hold them in contempt for their votes to give us the USA Patriot Act, and I hold the Democrats who voted for it in contempt too.

    I hold them both in contempt for the sophistry known as AUMF. I hold them in contempt for their assault on Habeas Corpus and other attacks upon the US Constitution that they have brought.

    The Mueller investigation was pure political theater from the start. I knew it when it commenced, and I know it now.

    I could go on, but I won't.

    Republicans defend the Constitution whilst the Democrats want to rewrite it on a daily basis. The Patriot Act process was abused by the Democrats. And it was the Democrats who gave the victory in Iraq away resulting in ISIS.

    neither called the press the enemy of the people, being unhappy with the press is different then labeling them the enemy of the people

    If the press will not report the truth and lie about evidence then they are the enemy of the people.

    It was the Democrats who pushed for civil rights in the 60's too. The SOUTHERN Democrats opposed them, but the Northern Democrats were their biggest supporters. The Republicans ran a Presidential candidate in 1064 who opposed civil rights.

    The media is the first 3.

    They just spent 2 years telling us they knew Trump was an agent of Russia.

    How's that working out?

    Trump WANTS to control the press, but he can't.

    He has called for reporters and news media to be stilled of their licenses and permits over nto supporting him (and did actually strip Jim Acosta of his, but it was overturned by a federal judge)

    He attempted to ban all news media except Fox (which has become nothing more than his personal propaganda machine, and the pseudo-state press) from being shown in federal buildings. This actually happened for several months in more than one federal agency, but was stopped when the workers complained that the President didn't have the authority to force prohibit them from watching other news sources, or control what they watched while on break.
