The fake news. The anti Trump news. The Deranged syndrome media...
The so-called news media has nothing to with reporting real honest news they are as Martha McSally said a bunch of left wing political hacks.
Don't forget who the few are that own the majority of news outlets.
When Media lies, like in most cases of reporting now, the byline author should be jailed and sued.
