Trump SCORCHES Liberal Media for Purposely ‘Creating Fear,’ ‘Panic’
At the start of what would become a true tour de force, President Trump began Saturday’s White House Coronavirus Task Force daily briefing with a lengthy opening warning of mass death and a tough week ahead for the country as we fight this pandemic. As part of that, he spent roughly a minute excoriating some in the liberal media for “spreading false rumors and creating fear and even panic with…

Friday Night (Briefing Room) Fights: Trump Spars with Acosta, Jiang
With the grave coronavirus pandemic worsening this week, the White House Coronavirus Task Force briefings have been far more sobering and less combative than past episodes.

CNN LIES, Chooses Snarky Punditry Over Coronavirus Briefing
Naturally, CNN has been unable to resist their impulse to depart from solely informing the public about the coronavirus pandemic to insteadblame everything on President Trump as the death toll passes 4,000 Americans.

MSNBC: ‘Crazy,’ ‘Dangerous’ to Continue Airing Trump’s Corona Briefing
It used to be that liberals in the media complained that there weren’t enough White House press briefings. Now, there are too many. According to MSNBC host Chris Hayes, it’s both “crazy” and “dangerous” to simply air Donald Trump’s coronavirus updates. He complained, "But I personally can’t help but feel these daily sessions are bad for the country, even dangerous from a public health perspective…

Who Runs America? The Media or the American People?
Call me crazy. But I had this strange idea that Americans ran America. I was under the apparently mistaken impression that every four years Americans elected a president. And that when times of crisis hit, as they occasionally do, the American people turn on their televisions, radios or, in today’s world, their computers - and listen to their freely elected leader update them on the crisis.

Birx Provides Reality Check on Doomsday Model, Worst Case Scenarios
In comments that drew an onslaught of lefties hurling sexist venom, Dr. Deborah Birx used Thursday’s daily briefing to implore the liberal media to stop with their breathless and seemingly eager use of worst case scenarios, such as astronomical claims about how over two million Americans will die from the coronavirus and asserting that we’re already at a point where hospitals must decide who…

Column: Press Briefings and Ego Bruisings
One of the more tiresome partisan polkas we’ve witnessed in the Trump years is the herky-jerky dancing around the White House briefing. First, journalists insist it’s a dangerously undemocratic practice to avoid a daily briefing. Then when suddenly there are daily briefings for a public-health crisis, journalists insist it’s a dangerous practice to air these briefings live because the president…

Thirsty to Divide: Nets Mislead in Trying to Split Trump, Task Force
It’s like some of this is fun and games for the press. On Tuesday night, the “big three” broadcast networks used their flagship evening newscasts to erect walls between President Donald Trump and his Coronovirus Task Force, falsely treating the President’s “hope” to reopen the economy by Easter (April 12) as a red line. In other words, it was an attempt to sow dissent and further scare Americans.
WashPost's Sullivan: Stop Showing Live Trump Coronavirus Briefings
Washington Post media columnist, Margaret Sullivan, launched a tirade against the media live broadcasting President Trump's coronavirus briefings in "The media must stop live-broadcasting Trump’s dangerous, destructive coronavirus briefings."
Media’s Negativity Won’t Dampen the American Spirit
Silver linings accompany most catastrophic events, and one major one with the coronavirus is the remarkable way Americans (and people throughout the world) have come together to fight this outbreak. Though the stock market has reflected a nation in panic, in other respects Americans, for the most part, have reacted responsibly, unselfishly and cooperatively, and I pray we are making substantial…
