The Media Has Had Enough Of Donald Trump As The First Amendment Strikes Back

http://www.politicususa.com/2016/05/31/media-donald-trump-amendment-strikes.html

After Donald Trump attacked the media at his press conference, the media attacked back.

At his press conference, Trump said, “I have to tell you. The press is so dishonest and so unfair.” Trump whined, “I sent people checks of a lot of money, and we’re going to give you the names right now, which is what you want, and instead of being like thank you very much, Mr. Trump or Trump, did a good job. Everyone’s saying who got it, who got it, and you make me look vert bad I have never received such bad publicity for doing such a good job, so I will give you the names if that’s what you want. ”...

The media hit Trump hard with legitimate questions, and stripped the glossy image off of the Republican nominee:

Some in the press are beginning to change their tune on Trump after the Republican nominee said at his press conference that he will continue to attack the media if he elected president. The Trump press conference was a complete debacle, and it is clear that there is a growing consensus among the media that they are sick of Trump’s demands for special treatment, and failure to understand the job of a journalist.
