“We actually believe that there is a colony on Mars that is populated by children who were kidnapped and sent into space on a 20-year ride,” said Steele. “So that once they get to Mars they have no alternative but to be slaves on the Mars colony.”
Jones echoed Steele, saying “clearly they don’t want us looking into what is happening” because “every time probes go over they turn them off.”
“Look, I know that 90 percent of the NASA missions are secret and I’ve been told by high level NASA engineers that you have no idea. There is so much stuff going on,” Jones said.

In the sixth month of Donald Trump’s presidency, we are witnessing an unprecedented meltdown of much of the media. Standards have been tossed overboard in a frenzy to bring down the president.

Trump, like all presidents, deserves coverage that is skeptical and tough, but also fair. That’s not what he’s getting.

What started as bias against him has become a cancer that is consuming the best and brightest. In rough biblical justice, media attempts to destroy the president are boomeranging and leaving their reputations in tatters.

He accuses them of publishing fake news, and they respond with such blind hatred that they end up publishing fake news. That’ll show him.

Agreed. Teenage pussy grabbing, cyber-bullying, selfish, vindictive, lying, Trump has really thrown the standards of the presidency overboard.

Is that reason for the press to throw their standards overboard? What's next? Physicians throwing their standards overboard because, well, Trump?

Did you just type "minor media transgressions" and not immediately punch yourself in the face?
 
Meh. You act like a lunatic you get covered as one.

CNN’s Latest Retraction Is Just The Tip Of The Fake News Iceberg

But taking responsibility for just one of the many flawed stories CNN has been pushing is nowhere near sufficient a response to the institutional problems plaguing the media outlet. The serious problems with CNN’s approach to the Russia-Trump collusion conspiracy are much deeper than just one story, go back many months, and involve several stories and larger themes that no one at CNN has bothered to sufficiently explain.

What’s Going On?

CNN’s hostility to Trump is off the charts. Harvard Kennedy School’s Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy calculated that 93 percent of CNN’s coverage of Trump in his first 100 days in office was negative. This media outlet has the most negative coverage of Trump by far. I recently watched a panel stacked with seven Trump opponents against one Trump supporter. The outlet’s leadership reportedly open discusses “war” with the president.
CNN has also been hit by undercover activists who have caught two employees making statements that contradict the media outlet’s Russia conspiracy focus. One senior producer said the Russia story is “mostly bulls***,” and that Trump is right to say he’s a victim of a “witch hunt.” He also said that the Russia story is being pushed at the outlet simply for ratings. Van Jones, a CNN analyst, was revealed in a snippet of video to call the Russia story a big “nothingburger.”
Both of these employees are saying obvious things that are only surprising because they don’t match what is being said on air. But employees are said to be struggling with how the network is handling itself.

But whether it’s the embarrassingly false Comey story, the discredited dossier hit job, the retracted collusion story, or any of the other thinly sourced and overhyped collusion stories, all of these problems are similar. The journalists are getting bad information from anonymous sources, not being transparent about what has gone wrong when sourcing fails, and generally being too credulous with anonymous — always anonymous — sources.
Yes, letting three employees go is a good first step. But more needs to be done to restore credibility.

Simply stated, CNN has been on a continuous witch hunt against Donald Trump since the day he was elected. I've never seen anything comparable to it from a major supposedly neutral news network in my lifetime.

Simply put, the MSM are not used to having a Republican president telling the leftist MSM to shove it.  Aside from Newt Gingrich calling out the debate questioners during the 2012 campaign and George H.W. Bush calling out Dan Rather in 1988, the Republicans usually act like a punching bag. 

President Trump knows how to communicate directly with his supporters by using Twitter and having campaign-style rallies.  His supporters like this because they see President Trump fight the MSM.  The MSM keep "advising" President Trump that he stop the Twitter messages and the replies to the MSM because, in their opinion, it is not "presidential."  The plain truth, though, is that the MSM are afraid that President Trump is making them irrelevant, because Trump can communicate directly with his supporters, and because Trump fights back.  The MSM no longer own the playing field.

The Opposition Party is desperate.  It has no real congressional leaders.  The Dems are turning on Pelosi, and Schumer is a lightweight, as stated by President Trump, who knows Schumer from New York City.  The Opposition Party is now led by angry "comics" like Kathy Griffin, Colbert, and the "journalists" at CNN and MSNBC, and the Times and Post.

Trump, and America, is winning.  He appointed Gorsuch to  the Supreme Court, won the travel ban in the Supreme Court, reduced illegal immigration, rescinded the Paris Climate Change agreement, allowed the pipeline, and issuing executive orders to undo the harm done by Obama.

The "Russia" story is a joke.  There is no evidence that Trump colluded with the Russians nor that the Russians affected the vote.  Obama knew of Russian attempts to influence but did nothing.  Loretta Lynch is being investigated.  Bernie Sanders is being investigated.  Hillary should be investigated.  Comey all but admitted that Lynch told him to let Hillary walk.

On the tax cut and repealing Obamacare, President Trump has to rely on McConnell and Ryan to round up the votes.  It may be best to simply repeal Obamacare and let the free market offer health plans, with Medicaid handling the poor.

Simply put, Mr. President: Ignore the advice from the MSM, the cheerleaders of the Democratic Party.  They are out to destroy you.  Keep fighting, and keep using Twitter to get respond to the vicious attacks and smears.

firing the Zucker dude is a necessary first step
 
It's hilarious how much Colbert riles people up and how he gets lumped in the same conversations with the MSM. Also, Kathy Griffin ain't leading no one.
