Mainstream news reporters attend briefings by State Department, White House and Pentagon spokespeople and then report it like it’s news. That’s not news, guys!! It’s basically state run TV.

This was standard practice for 8 years before Trump and it never seemed to bother anyone. Why is now different?

Hey! You’re catching on! Now realize that the Blue team and Red team are the same and only interested in the upward transfer of wealth and US imperialism.

To ask questions is to lose access. To lose access is to become a pariah, possibly even blackballed from the industry that you made a living in. Of course if all reporters asked questions, as reporters are supposed to do, what will happen? Mainstream news fires all its reporters?
