You seem a bit unhinged this morning comrade. In the case of Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Castro, Putin and Kim they all had or have state controlled media organizations that controlled the narrative. Nixon And Trump lived and live in a country without state controlled media. Certainly Trump constantly attacked the media and 80-90% of the coverage he received was negative. To compare dictator controlled countries with state run and controlled media isn’t accurate in comparison to the United States.

But Robert you don't distinguish between any MSM! Is all fake and an enemy of the people. Right? LOL

I do like your self portrait you posted above. It is a pretty good representation of yourself and your contribution.

Trump and the Republicans purposely undermines the media coverage. It's their go to defense. Fortunately the US has a relatively free press.

You just admitted the US has a relatively free press which undermines your whole argument. In the above 6 countries run by dictators there is no free press.

You've got 6 tyrants who owned the press and two that got run out by the press.
What are you trying to say?

But most Republicans including you think it isn't. Its all fake news right. LOL Trump clearly called the media the enemy for attacking him and his record. That's the point.

Trump is using the same techniques as his admired dictators. Undermine the media. Doesn't have to control it all to have an impact on supporters.

Fox for one acts like an arm of the Rerpublican party.

So I am a republican now? That is quite funny, you haven’t a clue. And in Canada the CBC acts like an arm of the Liberal party! Ideologically charged media reports on both sides of the spectrum are to an extent fake news!!
