Trump Labels Certain Media Outlets Enemies Of The American People

THE BOOM ALARMED PEOPLE LIVING
NEARBY.
THE PRESIDENT ARRIVED EARLIER
TODAY FOR A
NEW
DONALD TRUMP WHO HAS BEEN NO
STRANGER TO CONTROVERSY DURING
HIS FIRST FOUR WEEKS IN OFFICE.
LEYNA: HE TREATED STATED THE
FAKE NEWS MEDIA IS THE ENEMY OF
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
KCAL 9 DAVE BRYAN JOINS US WITH
A BLOWBACK FROM THE PRESIDENT'S
LATEST SOCIAL MEDIA RANTS.
THE PRESIDENT WAS IN THE
CAROLINA SAY WHERE HE ATTENDED
A BOEING PLANT AND TALKED ABOUT
JOBS BUT IT WAS NOT THE SPEECH
THAT CAUSED THE CONTROVERSY.
ONE OF THE FOUNDATIONS OF
DEMOCRACY IS A FREE AND STRONG
NEWS MEDIA.
THAT DOESN'T MEAN THE MEDIA
SHOULD BE CRITICIZED.
SOME CRITICS CHARGE THIS TIME
MR. TRUMP WENT TOO FAR.
AND WHILE DONALD TRUMP IS NEVER
SHIED AWAY FROM CRITICIZING THE
PRESS, TWO DAYS TO REPRESENT A
MAJOR ESCALATION IN HIS WAR OF
WORDS WITH THE NEWS MEDIA.
UNFORTUNATELY, MUCH OF THE
MEDIA IN WASHINGTON D.C. ALONG
WITH NEW YORK, LOS ANGELES IN
PARTICULAR SPEAKS NOT FOR THE
PEOPLE.
BUT FOR THE SPECIAL INTERESTS
BECAUSE THE PRESS HONESTLY IS
OUT OF CONTROL.
THE LEVEL OF DISHONESTY IS OUT
OF CONTROL.
REPORTER: IF YOU THOUGHT
PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS A LITTLE
OVER-THE-TOP IN HIS HARSH
CRITICISM OF THE DISHONEST AND
OUT-OF-CONTROL NEWS MEDIA, AND
HIS NEWS CONFERENCE THIS WEEK,
IT WAS JUST A WARM-UP ACT FOR
THE SMACK DOWN THAT CAME ON
FRIDAY.
WHEN HE RESPONDED TO MAINSTREAM
COVERAGE OF HIS THURSDAY NEWS
CONFERENCE WITH A TWITTER
TIRADE.
AFTER COMPLEMENTING
CONSERVATIVE RADIO TALKSHOW
HOST RUSH LIMBAUGH'S COVERAGE.
THE FAKE NEWS MEDIA TREATED,
FAILING NEW YORK TIMES, NBC
NEWS, ABC, CBS, CNN IS NOT MY
ENEMY.
IT IS THE ENEMY OF THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE.
TO LEAVE OFFICE BEFORE TERM
IS COMPLETED IS A HARM TO EVERY
INSTINCT IN MY BODY.
REPORTER: WHILE OTHER
PRESIDENTS LIKE RICHARD NIXON
HAVE HAD THEIR ENEMIES LISTS
AND CLASSES WITH NEWS MEDIA,
NONE OF THEM IN THE MODERN ERA
PUBLICLY ACCUSED THE MEDIA OF
BEING AN ENEMY OF THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE.
HE IS USING ENEMY, A WORD
RICHARD NIXON USED BUT IN
PRIVATE.
REPORTER: JOHN DICKERSON IS
A CBS NEWS POLITICAL DIRECTOR.
MEDIA IS A GOOD PUNCHING BAG
BUT ALSO PROTECTED AMERICAN
INSTITUTION AND IT WAS THE FREE
PRESS THAT REPORTED THAT THE
NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR
MICHAEL FLYNN HADN'T TOLD THE
TRUTH.
REPORTER: THIS IS A BOARD
MEMBER OF THE LA CHAPTER OF THE
SOCIETY OF PROFESSIONAL
JOURNALISTS.
IT IS NOT SOMETHING WE'VE
EVER SEEN THIS COUNTRY AT THIS
EXTENT.
AND FRANKLY IT IS NOT SOMETHING
I THINK MOST OF US EVER WOULD
HAVE DREAMED |
REPORTER: HE SAYS PRESIDENT
TRUMP'S DEMONIZATION OF THE
NEWS MEDIA CAN BE DANGEROUS.
THE WHOLE NATION OF A FREE
PRESS HAS BEEN DASHED OF
DEMOCRATIC VALUES IN THE DAESH
IS WRONG AND POTENTIALLY
DANGEROUS AND CERTAINLY DOES
FALL INTO LINE WITH WHAT WE
HAVE SEEN FROM AUTHORITARIAN
REGIMES AND DICTATORS AND
DEMIGODS THROUGHOUT HISTORY.
I'M NOT A GREAT FAN OF A
DAILY TWEET.
REPORTER: MITCH McCONNELL
SAYS HE WOULD PREFER TO SEE THE
PRESIDENT TRUMP STAND MESSAGE.
I LIKE WHAT HE IS DOING.
I'M NOT A FAN OF THE EXTRA
DISCUSSION.
THAT HE LIKES TO
BUT WE WILL SOLDIER ON.
REPORTER: US
PROFESSOR SAYS DONALD TRUMP IS
APPEALING TO HIS CORE
SUPPORTERS.
MUST PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR
HIM DON'T LIKE THE MAINSTREAM
NEWS MEDIA.
AND THEY CHAIRED HIM ALL
CAMPAIGN LONG.
WHEN HE CRITICIZED THE PRESS.
SO NOW HE IS DEFENSIVE, NO HE
IS BEEN FACING A STEADY STREAM
OF BAD STORIES, PRESIDENT TRUMP
IS GOING BACK TO THE APPROACH
THAT WORKS SO WELL FOR
CANDIDATE TRUMP.
REPORTER: BY THE WAY IT WAS
1972 WHEN THEN-PRESIDENT NIXON
TOLD HENRY KISSINGER THAT THE
PRESS WAS THE ENEMY.
HE DID IT IN PRIVATE THE.
TODAY ONE OF THE JOURNALISTS
WHO BROKE THE WATERGATE SCANDAL
WAS LED TO NIXON'S DEMISE, CARL
