I disagree. When the press engages in nothing more than propaganda for a political party, they are no longer the press and should not be held as such. There is no reason for them to even hold a press pass, they aren't the press. This goes for anyone that purposefully spreads disinformation to specifically sway public opinion.
I see CNN, WSJ, NYT MSM NBC ABC and such as nothing more than propaganda for the left. I know there are a lot more but those are off the top of my head. And I know there are a few on the right as well.
I have a hard time finding honest journalism and refuse to pay for any of it. So far I've been impressed with Newsy, but even they are reporting things with a left slant.
Bill, they have a right to be propagandists. Are they entitled to have access to the White House press room? No. Do they have a right to publish what they want (in print, on the airwaves, or online)? Yes. Can't shut them down.
