Enjoy.)After two years of bogus news coverage and blatant lies, the liberal media has become enemy number one to President Donald Trump and his supporters. Yet these entitled liberal elitists still expect to be treated like VIPs at the White House. This year, Trump is putting a damper on their holiday plans. Jim Acosta and his buddies at CNN will be in tears when they hear this news.
Since Donald Trump announced his candidacy for president, you could count on one thing: negative news coverage by the mainstream media. Major news outlets have slammed Trump since day one. It hasn’t changed since he’s entered
It’s no wonder why Trump called them “fake news” and why he calls CNN “very fake news.” Reporters don’t do anything to present themselves as unbiased, objective, and fair. News programs launch into tirades against the man. They invite guests that frequently talk of impeachment. The idea that our media is accurate and reliable is a dream.
Yet, to our utter shock, the media still thinks it deserves our praise and adoration. They continue to carry themselves with an attitude that demands we believe every word they say. What’s even more disgusting is how they expect this from the president himself. The media is so arrogant, they refuse to acknowledge how their bias is eroding the Free Press in America.
President Trump is here to let them know how much their behavior has cost them. He is axing a decades-old White House tradition. One that pampered the media like royalty with rich foods, a tour of the White House, and one-on-one photos.
President Trump has canceled the White House holiday party for the media, making the decades-old tradition a victim of his increasingly contentious relationship with major news organizations.
The annual Christmas-season gathering was a significant perk for those covering the White House, as well as other Washington reporters, anchors and commentators, and New York media executives would regularly fly in for the occasion. At its peak, the invitation-only soirees grew so large that there were two back-to-back events, one for broadcast outlets and one for print organizations.
Journalists who attended the events, which featured a catered buffet of lamb chops, crab claws and elaborate desserts, got to roam the decorated mansion with a spouse or other family member, a friend or a colleague, adding to the invitation’s allure.
But the biggest fringe-benefit was the picture-taking sessions, in which the president and first lady would patiently pose with guests and briefly chat with them in front of a Christmas tree, with the White House sending out the photos — copies of which were invariably sent home to mom. This would take a couple of hours, with long lines snaking across the building’s first floor. Bill Clinton even posed for pictures with journalists days after he was impeached. [Source: Fox News]
Wow, it must have been really good to be a journalist, once upon a time. You could spend all your time attacking the president and he’d still invite you to the White House to wine and dine you? No wonder the media is full of itself!
These entitled jerks live like the rich and fabulous while doing a miserably poor job of covering the news. Journalists have long ago abandoned the idea of an objective and fair news landscape. They attack conservatives in the hopes of influencing the public. Their treatment of Trump and the First Family has been particularly despicable.
It comes as no surprise that Trump is refusing to spend tax dollars on a glitzy Christmas celebration that rewards these people.
He’s called them the “enemy of the people,” after all. Why would he treat them to such a dinner?
Here’s an idea: instead of spending the thousands (or millions) of dollars on this party, the president invites Gold Star families or veterans to the White House. Show true heroes the kind of elegant party the media wanted for themselves! The men and women who served us in the Armed Forces deserve at least that.
You better believe the elite in our media are grumbling over this. Their fancy party — paid for by you and me — has been canceled. That’s one less gala event they’ll be going to this year.
SHARE if you support Trump’s decision to cancel the media’s fancy Christmas party.
