Summary
Donald Trump, the president-elect and convicted felon, has escalated his legal attacks on media outlets critical of him, sparking fears for press freedom under his second term.
His lawyer recently demanded $10 billion in damages from The New York Times and Penguin Random House over alleged “defamatory” content.
Similar lawsuits target the Daily Beast, CBS News, and others, accusing them of “malicious” reporting and election interference.
Media groups and watchdogs, including the Committee to Protect Journalists and Reporters Without Borders, warn these actions threaten press freedom and the public’s right to information.
This is on par with “the capitalist will sell you the rope to hang himself.”
Media should of been asking “what does deporting millions of illegals looks like logistically.” But they softballed him for the ratings and scandalous stories.
They brought this onto themselves.
They absolutely coddled and voiced all his insane rantings while never refuting any of them.
I hope their 30 pieces of silver are heavy in their pockets as the rope is put around their necks.
