Liberal outlets all over the country are calling for the event to be canceled although some still want to buy tickets to fund the charitable cause it supports. I pray, pray they either cancel (which they won't) or simply not attend.

It would prove Trump's point. The media is the opposing party. By not attending, they are making a very strong statement of disapproval of Trump. Is that what "neutral" journalists are supposed to do?

For the sake of the Republic, don't attend. It will make Trump's statements about the dishonest media so much more effective.

They would be far smarter to have the event, attend in droves, and force Trump to either not attend or to be pillaged. But who said the media is smart?

The media is the opposing party because it is very clearly the propaganda arm of the DNC.

Very poor perspective by the POTUS

Will this include your daughter?

Hey a$$hole, you lost the debate. ATL confirmed your WV professors said nothing of the sort. You lied. A real journalist speaks to the subject of a report or at least inquiries about rebuttals.

And I will place my daughter's IQ against yours seven days a week and twice on Sundays. Want to compare SAT's and GPA's? You 'd lose.

And, Sir, I do not name call.

Also, you should go to the other post, see the full timeline of the events of the story to understand what actually occurred.

You also failed to mention, more times than one, that the story in question was an update on a past story, to which no one took any exception, not even DJT. I hypothesized on this in another post as well, now proven to be correct.

You also fail to understand that no one lied, not me, not DJT and not the writer for the NYT, who correctly used verification from Sean Spicer to update the previously published story. The only one who seems to have an issue with this is you, sir.

These are the facts and the other post contains even more, please review the facts and you will understand.

You are incredibly wrong. Journalism 101. If you still want to compare my daughters GPA and SAT scores with you, I am happy to do so. With absolute proof including her SAT scores. You're not worthy to carry a bucket of water for her.

You know nothing about journalistic ethics. You are an ideologue. And you are dumber than a sled track. You called out my daughters name in this, but I will match my daughters SATs scores with yours. And your GPA. I would match her Cronkite school grades with anything you have to offer.

I am willing to post her grades, if you're willing to do the same. Are you on?

This is basic journalistic ethics and you have failed. Probably just like you failed when you were at WVU. Be a man, show me your SAT scores, and show me your GPA. Although you have to admit the Cronkite school is much, much better than WVU's journalism school.

You are an ideologue.
Pot meet kettle.

You keep trying to portray an intentional bias in your assertions on this NYT story and when proven wrong you resort to name calling and a weak attempt at bullying.

I don't think you know one thing about what you are talking about except spouting the party line of media bias. It is getting old and you can't prove a single one of your assertions.

No one gives two ***** about your daughter.

Prove your point, be a man. Back up your assertion that the NYT story is media bias as you've stated.

Except that you can't. Maybe you should take the J101 class at WVU.

You would have proven yourself to be an extremely weak ideologue. Everyone knows with any journalistic integrity they should've checked with the White House. They did not. You cite two WVU journalistic professors and claim they support your view. ATL rebuffs your view. Who was right, you or ATL.?

They should have checked their sources, they did not. And you don't have the guts to check your Pedegree against my daughters.

You are flipping coward. Post your Philip an SAT scores. Poster Flippin GPA. And I will guarantee you she will beat you seven ways to Sunday.

You are a Flippin coward.

Again, when you are proven wrong you lose it and resort to personal taunts, weak attempts at bullying and school yard junk. I'll bet next you will tell me that your dad can beat up my dad. Why don't you get a life and give the media bias/fake news thing a rest.

We get it, DJT has declared war on the media and you're strapping on your boots and marching in lock step right behind him. Make sure you iron your best shirt when you do it. Go with the brown one, it matches your eyes.

Where was I proven wrong *******. Can you cite one source, even one source that said you should not check with the subject of a report before publishing that report. Name one source? You cited two WVU journalistm professors. ATL said you were absolutely incorrect. All I know is the Cronkite school said that is extremely unprofessional. ATL said that the WVU professors you cited said it was unprofessional. Let me ask you a very basic question, are you a journalism major? More importantly, give me any source, any source that says you should not check with the subject of an investigation before issuing a report. I cited Reuters. Can you cite any?

If not, you have a zero standing in this argument.

Man up, give me your GPA, and your SAT scores. Let's compare my 29-year-old daughters to yours. Let's find out who is the brighter of the two. You will lose this argument.

Then why did you bring her up in this thread?

Prove your point. Show me any journalistic institution in the country that tells their students not to contact the subject of their report. I showed you Reuter's principles. Show me ANY OTHER institution that agrees with you. "Print your story and seek no comment from the subject."

I will await your response and your proof that a response from the subject of a report is not necessary. Somehow I doubt you were even a journalism major. WVU is a good school and I am certain they would not produce a journalism student as poorly informed as you.

I don't know who you are quoting above as I can find no instance where I or anyone in the three posts on this subject made that statement. The fact is you have come to believe that only your statement is accurate, even when shown to to be incorrect.

Do you know for a fact that the writer never questioned about any calls/talks scheduled with anyone from China? Do you know if the writer made an inquiry after the Thursday press briefing to the WH press office about China? He/she may have as it is obvious that the Friday story was a follow up from a previously published story from Thursday which no one is objecting to; not DJT, Sean Spicer nor you. The Thursday story as published is accurate.

Thursday afternoon press briefing gives no indication of scheduled calls with China, confirmation #1. The missing link, if you will, is that we don't know and may never know if the writer, perhaps on his way out of the briefing, stopped by the press office and made an inquiry. Certainly popping into the office on the way out and asking a staffer, .."no announcement on a call with China, correct?" may have happened. I don't know and you don't know and we will most likely never know.

But for you to say and accuse sloppy journalism and fake news and media bias without getting all the facts is just as bad on your part. Especially given the fact that once an announcement from the WH about the unscheduled call was made that within 31 minutes a corrected story was published on-line and made available for the second edition for Friday. Obviously no intent to be inaccurate.

I can't nor can you know every detail on what took place that day. But it is clear that there was no intent to deceive anyone about the published story.

You, sir, are claiming media bias by creating media bias all on your own, in your own head and with your own words.

GHOSTING!!!!

Completely wrong. Bullying people that disagree. Attacking the media. Defending his daughter after dragging her in to his nonsense. I wonder if PATX has an orange glow to him too? Sad!
