They've been cut some slack for years, and not covered themselves in much glory. If Team Trump aren't playing ball, then whose fault is that? I wouldn't give a friendly pat to a dog with its teeth in my ankle either.

^ Oh, agreed...

But also don't run around with your weiner out shouting "Look everyone I've got the biggest one going!" and not expect the dog to latch on to it either!

When someone in any political office is offering up policies that can be deemed controversial or devisive in any way, would you want or expect any less from your media than Trump is getting atm?

Information is power - the dissemination of it a big key to retaining that power. Is it any wonder that he is trying to discredit the media in his position? Trump knows that he (and his policies) are vunerable to their opinion peices, message and investigative digging.in a way he is not in any other arena.
