Don Jr. says father has discussed banning mainstream news outlets from White House briefing room

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Donald Trump Jr., President-elect Trump’s eldest son, says his dad has discussed keeping some mainstream media outlets from the White House press briefing room.

Trump Jr., speaking on his podcast this week, said they discussed opening the briefing room to more independent journalists and social media influencers.

“We had the conversation about opening up the press room to a lot of these independent journalists,” he said.

“If The New York Times has lied, they’ve been averse to everything, they’re functioning as the marketing arm to the Democrat party,” Trump Jr. continued, asking, “Why not open it up to people who have larger viewerships, stronger followings?”

[Dem2theMax]

23. Coke Zero. That's his name forevermore.

[Omnipresent]

3. Tough questions keep felon up at nights, rage tweeting.

If he can’t stand the heat, he needs to stay out of the kitchen!

[Dennis Donovan]

4. They're setting up a Ministry of Propaganda to be run from the WH press office

If only "approved" journalists are there, it's nothing more than state-run media.

[underpants]

14. They were screaming about "State run media"

Every accusation is an admission

[NameAlreadyTaken]

5. The rules were no fact-checking!!!!!

[kimbutgar]

6. I have no problem with that I'd be happy for the networks to not report on his breathlessly!

[Takket]

7. i think deep down inside, despite ripping them for red meat for the MAGA base, he knows the the M$M has

bent over backwards sanewashing, and "both-siding" to help him get elected. So he will not "ban" them.

[RockRaven]

8. Oh no!

Anyway...

[jls4561]

9. Among the many contradictions of Donnie Drumph...

He craves attention and respect from the legitimate legacy media, but thrives off the sycophantic fawning from the Douchies and square headed steroid freaks at outlets who operate in a fact free zone.

[brettdale]

10. So in the WH Press Briefing room

Andrew Tate, Matt Walsh, Joe Rogan and just to show
he is fair and balance, Peter Doocy.

[LSparkle]

11. I vow to watch any mainstream news org that gets banned

Badge of honor for real journalists.

[GreenWave]

12. And still they will grovel over him.

[republianmushroom]

13. That may not be that bad, considering the lying he and is spoke persons do.

Remember

17. NASCAR did this with ESPN when they signed with Fox/NBC

ESPN had to do interviews outside the track. Eventually they just stopped covering it and for most sports fans it disappeared from the radar. NASCAR still makes money but at least Richmond has cut the number of seats substantially. The hardcore fans still are there but no new eyes are seeing it.

18. Oh, boy, I can't wait for all the fringe nutcase "news" organizations: OANN, RSBN, ...

...NewsMax, and let's not forget the radtrads and fundies from EWTN, Relevant Radio, CBN, etc.

Maybe we'll be lucky and OANN will bring back Chanel Rion as their White House spokesmodel...er...I mean reporter. I've missed her bold, unorthodox sartorial choices when it comes to work attire...haven't you?

21. "President Trump, President Trump...

Are you the best President or the bestest President?"

[allegorical oracle]

22. Zippy's rattling his cage, again. Nobody except Kimberly is listening. And

the day he goes broke, she'll vanish like a smoke ring.

Of course, Uncle Elon could buy out all the MSM. Otherwise, we'll still be here.

[IcyPeas]

24. MSM outlets should just say 'fuck it. We're not going to show up anyway."

Donald would cry if he wasn't the number 1 story every day in the MSM.

So I call bullshit on don Jr. MSM should call their bluff and not even show up. Better yet make a public statement about your organization not attending the press briefings because it's 99% lies anyway.

[sakabatou]

25. Echo chambers! Echo chambers everywhere!

[FakeNoose]

26. So now we live in a country where UNELECTED OFFSPRING are making Presidential policy?

[CrispyQ]

27. We'll see. Trump loves to see himself on TV. -nt

28. Dotard cannot get Melania to live with him as man and wife. Watch for a Jeff Gannon.

[Hugin]

29. Eh, I take it as the High Maintenance Mussolini waggling the access carrot...

Looking for the highest bidders. It would be a blessing if the MSM walked away. They won’t.

Instead, they will supplicate themselves even further up his backside.
