The Media has a job to do...If you keep repeating a lie, it becomes the truth...


Either they will go along with Cheeto's lies, and contribute to building his own version of his own reality

or they need to do their job, fact check, and confront him

Media needs to just stop any coverage of DJT tweets. Need to act as if they dont exist.

WCPT radio station in Chicago can always use the love. Tune in on your device of choice and also call their advertisers. They ask us to do that even if we don't live in Illinois. Just tell them that you're from out of town and grateful that they have their ads on the station.

Same goes for other stations and support Free Speech TV and Democracy Now!, too.

Newspaper Subscriptions take a whack,Electronic Media,Radio and TV Demographic numbers tank. Infotainment will change once their Profitability Model goes in the toilet. Example,NFL and their Profit model,which has taken a Southward plunge in numbers do to bad programming and their quest for profits doing the same old crap over and over.

Notice how all the Comcast Entities have joined Fox Entertainment spewing the same verbiage and story lines. It sure is not by accident,they are all in with the Corporate Coup placing this POS in the White House.
