What the real issue is with the continuing criticsm about Michelle Wolf is ALL about....

[marble falls]

The press is keeping this alive, not us or the deplorables.

[dalton99a]

1. She really hit a raw nerve

[Cha]

2. Journalists are still defending the administration that wants to throw them in jail, rather than..

Link to tweet

Mahalo, marble falls

[marble falls]

4. How you been, cha, we haven't bumped into one another in a while....

good tweet. From a good authority who knows how the press "operates".

[Cha]

6. Ok, marble falls.. just

hanging in there like everyone else living through this Global nightmare.

You?

[True Blue American]

23. Perfect, Cha!

They also need to give credit to the real Journalists out in the field reporting the real news.
Instead of the inbred, over paid toads sitting in offices.

[Cha]

36. Excellent point,

True Blue American.

[marble falls]

3. The camera pan of the audience should be posted. The press looked like they were caught hands....

in the cookie jar.

[oberliner]

5. It hasn't even been 24 hours since the event

[marble falls]

7. Closer to 48 than 24. And the RW crap keeps flowing. This is something that needed to die Saturday..

night or 24 hours ago Sunday morning.

[oberliner]

8. I think it will be off the radar as a story within a few days

Which seems reasonable.

[marble falls]

11. Reasonable? All depends on whether we need to apply more ink on the WHCD or cheetolini.

[oberliner]

12. CNN and MSNBC are essentially all Trump all the time

There was a massive suicide attack in Afghanistan - killing many innocent people including journalists and children.

Barely even makes the news shows (and leads to next to no discussion on DU).

[Blue_Adept]

15. It got the first ten+ minutes on Morning Joe this morning

I was surprised by that as I expected it to go right into the WHCD and the way Joe and Mika got tagged on it. I actually came out of that part a bit more respectful of Joe in how he's handle things slung at him by Trump and others over the years in relation to dealing with it and his kid.

But they did spend a good deal of time on the events in Afghanistan with David Ignatius talking about his time spent on that very road and the trouble while both he and Joe talked about how this has been going on for seventeen years and there seems to be no real solutions.

[LanternWaste]

22. I s'pose a lot of people aren't thrilled when the water-cooler discussions allow for the benign.

"and leads to next to no discussion on DU..."

I s'pose a lot of people aren't thrilled when the water-cooler discussions allow for the benign; but it certainly allows us the opportunity to pat ourselves on the back for being conversationally more evolved.

[kag]

10. Could not agree more.

Move on, already!

[dumdrum]

13. Thank you

For 36 hours the talk is about a few minutes a few days ago.
The RW has achieved it's goal, we're devided.
You hire someone to do a job
They do it
You don't like the way that they do it
Your vetting process is no better than the administration's

[FSogol]

20. Crappy comparision. What office was Wolf elected for?

[True Blue American]

25. Not to mention showing the Trump rant

About that filthy comedienne over and over.

[marble falls]

31. Where are you finding all the outrage to waste on a comedienne who wasn't anywhere near the ....

line that other comedians have crossed at this same event many, many times.

I think this one is Rip Taylor. You want to hear some outrageous crap and at an educational fundraiser for Al Smith Foundation?

[True Blue American]

33. I am not outraged at Michell Wolf

As David Axelrod said about calling names, but that is enough about POTUS!

I am thrilled she told the truth about Sanders and the elite media! They gave us Trump and constantly attacked Hillary.pompoue,over paid hacks!

Good news today. Richard Painter is running as a Democrat for Franken’s old seat.

And Kelly often calls Trump an idiot!

[marble falls]

30. Here's the big 800# gorrilla in the room of a tell: How much coverage of the cheetolini sieg heil...

meet and greet in Michigan did you see? How much outrage over a legitimate roast did you see? Why are the press all over thier imagined outrage for the relatively mild roasting of Huckleberry when there's a half-assed President running for tin pot dictator?

Seriously: how many Mexicans in the room tonight? (I'm only asking for the alleged leader of the western world.)

[bucolic_frolic]

9. Jugular

We all knew it long ago, but Washington won't admit it.

[greatlaurel]

14. Michelle Wolf is a brave woman and a true patriot.

The "journalists" attacking her are neither brave, patriots or true journalists.

[iluvtennis]

19. ++++++ Agree

[RockRaven]

16. Yup

The WHCD is supposed to remind the press how smart, important, virtuous, and brave they are. Not what she did.

[certainot]

17. i disagree - she attacked republicans, trump, the teabag dittohead talk radio base

the chorus of 1500 talk radio stations attacking wolf in unison are a lot louder than the MSM doing random discussions on this

more important than wolf going after the MSM, she went after trump and attacked everything limbaugh and spawn have been spewing for many years

this is how the real political correctness works, those radio stations are constantly attacking people who stick their necks out and she 's just getting it worse

[Texin]

18. The media know they're hugely responsible for making the shameless monstrosity called tRump.

I think they've been more critical of him in the last year and now feel that the public should be more supportive of them in light of the mis-administration's efforts to brand them as purveyors of phony information.

That said, I think Wolf was hard-hitting, but it certainly wasn't unfair or without merit. They deserve to be ripped for their non-stop coverage of this idiot during the run-up to the nomination and election. Wolf isn't the only stand-up comedy person dishing up scathing criticisms of them. Bill Mahr is, by far, much more biting and profane. They are partly at fault for allowing this cretin to have equal footing with the other candidates, but the public has supported this dolt far longer by watching his worthless so-called *realilty* shows. Without eyeballs on their televisions, tRump wouldn't have made it out of Manhattan.

[get the red out]

28. Exactly

And it goes back even farther with their culpability to when all they could air on all stations and the nightly news during the Obama administration was TEA PARTY TEA PARTY TEA PARTY! Which was the biggest astro-turf job ever done, but they played along as if it was just "the people" rising up. I will never forgive the media in this country for their 24/7 ass kissing of that bunch of Fox News choreographed racist ignoramuses as long as I live.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

21. Yes, the media are keeping this alive. For profit, not for journalism. . . . . nt

[BobTheSubgenius]

24. What do you think the media thinks it's doing?

Protecting its access? It SURELY cannot be genuine agreement with the WH and its adoring hordes.

[True Blue American]

26. Turn them off

I did.

[Rabrrrrrr]

27. But let us not also forget that Michelle's larger crime is saying those WHILE BEING FEMALE.

Imagine if she were also black and Muslim.

[SomethingNew]

29. Pretty ironic statement.

She just used her spotlight last night to hype herself and her Netflix special using Trump. It was a shrewd move and it took chutzpah to use Trump for self-promotion while calling people out for using Trump for self-promotion.

[marble falls]

32. Seriously? Self promoting what? She's a comedian.

[EffieBlack]

35. You forgot to include the sarcasm thingy

[b]Pretty ironic statement.

There. I fixed it. You’re welcome.

[EffieBlack]

34. That was the whole shebang
