Trump Admin needs to stop censoring media

NAZI PROPAGANDA AND CENSORSHIP
Once they succeeded in ending democracy and turning Germany into a one-party dictatorship, the Nazis orchestrated a massive propaganda campaign to win the loyalty and cooperation of Germans. The Nazi Propaganda Ministry, directed by Dr. Joseph Goebbels, took control of all forms of communication in Germany: newspapers, magazines, books, public meetings, and rallies, art, music, movies, and radio. Viewpoints in any way threatening to Nazi beliefs or to the regime were censored or eliminated from all media.
During the spring of 1933, Nazi student organizations, professors, and librarians made up long lists of books they thought should not be read by Germans. Then, on the night of May 10, 1933, Nazis raided libraries and bookstores across Germany. They marched by torchlight in nighttime parades, sang chants, and threw books into huge bonfires. On that night more than 25,000 books were burned. Some were works of Jewish writers, including Albert Einstein and Sigmund Freud. Most of the books were by non-Jewish writers, including such famous Americans as Jack London, Ernest Hemingway, and Sinclair Lewis, whose ideas the Nazis viewed as different from their own and therefore not to be read.
The Nazi censors also burned the books of Helen Keller, who had overcome her deafness and blindness to become a respected writer; told of the book burnings, she responded: "Tyranny cannot defeat the power of ideas." Hundreds of thousands of people in the United States protested the book burnings, a clear violation of freedom of speech, in public rallies in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, and St. Louis.
Schools also played an important role in spreading Nazi ideas. While some books were removed from classrooms by censors, other textbooks, newly written, were brought in to teach students blind obedience to the party, love for Hitler, and antisemitism. After-school meetings of the Hitler Youth and the League of German Girls trained children to be faithful to the Nazi party. In school and out, young people celebrated such occasions as Adolf Hitler's birthday and the anniversary of his taking power.

Take a look at the ratings of cable news networks for any indication.
Note who leads and who doesn't lead. THEN pay special attention to the 18-49 demographic. They don't even watch the news.

Denying one of 1000 press companies into an event is not censorship. Last I heard they can still write whatever lying piece of crap they still want. No do I see where he has made the media state run although it might as well be dnc run like it is now

So why isn't child molester magazine

Let in?
Yes, this is to make a point.
CNN was caught lying once again on the previous FBI stuff. They need to be banned for good IMO. What make them above ethics?

I can understand that cnn has has been less than friendly, but banning them from briefings is a little more than disturbing on the surface.

Haven't checked Breitbart so they can show me how CNN lied

Maybe there is proof that emerged.
Last I heard the White House just pointed fingers and yelled "Liars!" Then again, CNN probably didn't give a source.
And of course if sources always had to be specified then no one would speak up. And that is probably the end game. Works for Putin.

It's not one, it's several. NYT, CNN, Politico, BBC, LA Times, the Daily Mail, The Hill, New York Daily News. AP and Time are also now boycotting and not attending. Comparing this to the Nazis is an exaggeration, but this is very wrong and very alarming.

AP and Time are boycotting on the basis of the BAN of the preceding publications, is what I meant.

This is an unprecedented event and I think a lot of people are going to sweep this under the rug. It's a DIRECT attack on media, since the right loves to compare Obama with Trump, Obama was attacked relentlessly by Fox News for 8 years straight and not once were they banned from any briefing whatsoever. Cause he's, you know, an adult.

No, he just does not like trump. At least he has the balls as a conservative to speak out, regardless of what you think.

this. It's like you have no foresight whatsoever. Of course it's not an all out ban of media. It's one or two. But where does it go? Let's test it out. Oh, didn't cause that big of a ruckus? Let's ban a few more. Pay no attention to the boiling frog, but that's how you put media under your control. You don't jump off the high-dive into authoritarianism. Hitler didn't do that. Nobody can do that. It's a very slow, subtle, gradual shift. You are 100% convinced that there is no harm in little white lies about terrorist attacks that never happened in Bowling Green, Atlanta, and Sweden, right? But why do those harmless little lies keep happening? Is it to create fear? Is it to create a need for more protection, from the military, and the police, and the government? It doesn't happen instantaneously, but in tiny increments. We're seeing it already.
But yes, we know...you're far too smart to fall for that, aren't you?

I honestly think history books will look back on this event and say it started here. I hope I'm wrong, but nothing good has ever come from censoring of the press.
