TrumpTV.

Background: "After Years as the Star of Must-See TV, Trump Faces the Sting of Cancellation/A boycott of the White House press pool by the major networks deprives the president of the oxygen of screen time. But he is still finding ways to get on the air" (NYT gift link).

So you get it: He doesn't need the fake-news networks. He's got a YouTube channel. Yeah, so do I....

Good for Trump. I don't miss Trump on Fox News. Probably because I never watch fox news. I have no idea why Republicans keep going on and keeping that clown network afloat.

Ann Althouse বলেছেন...

I haven't watched the news on network TV since Walter Cronkite signed off for the last time — 1981.

all that depriving President Trump of oxygen- not a metaphor…

rehajm বলেছেন...

…so he’s being sued for access at the same time they’re not using their access? I christen that move a Rosie O’Donnell. I give it less than a week before they cave…

RCOCEAN II বলেছেন...

Fox only gets 2 million in primetime on average. Per Grok, only 24 percent of Americans watch TV news on a daily basis. No wonder Trump isn't upset at the boycott.

RCOCEAN II বলেছেন...

Nice to know that Fox News is sticking up for CNN. Because it wouldn't happen the other way round. But then Fox News is part of the MSM - they fired Roger Ailes and put Paul Ryan on their Board, and its now just the Mitt Romney network.

It is so much easier for me to tune into a YouTube channel than it is to find where/if I can stream a news channel. I don't have cable and don't want to pay for the "live TV" services on streaming platforms.

Anyone else ever see the movie Idiocracy?

D.D. Driver বলেছেন...

I actually don't really have a problem with a CSPAN like YouTube channel. But a government propaganda channel with Family Guy clips? Come on, MAGA? Really, guys? You fuckers get horny for this cringy shit? Don't you feel pathetic?

I like the idea of seeing events, speeches, etc in a live mode....instead of selected out of context clips, is a good one. When you take things out of context...... only report what you want and hide the rest of the context that you don't want the public to see.....all we get on the receiving/watching end is distortion and lies.

This is why Trump and almost every other person in the public eye is leery of (hates) the media. They lie and distort.

I want to see the original content and make up MY own mind. Not be nudged or told what to believe.

Democrat Soviet press- you know the guys who go fishing with Newsum.. The press who gather around saint Hillary in an airplane, and hang on her every word and look at her longingly - almost with worshipful desire.
The press who admires the crease in Obama's pants.

Fox News has some great programming. The Five is popular and so is Gutfeld.

Islam and leftism - they have all sorts of Media - including Hasan Piker - who lives in a 3 million dollar mansion and who electrocutes his own dog.

THE SOROS SOVIET MEDIA BANNED TRUMP FROM SOCIAL MEDIA - OVER THEIR OWN LIES.

I would allow CNN and Politico back - just never call on them.

Boycott of the press pool deprives Trump of screen time???
I didn't realize that President Trump conducted the White House press briefing. I guess he must have taken that over when Karoline Leavitt left. Rubio would have but he was too busy being the new King of Greenland to do it.

Peachy+2 বলেছেন...

ABC is a joke. Right up there with BS NOW

Fred Drinkwater বলেছেন...

White House press corps reporting has been utterly useless, or deliberately obscurantist, for decades. Bring back the swimming pool!

Hombre বলেছেন...

Really? So the response of the mediaswine to excluding some of them from the press room is to cut him off from the public? Well that will make it easier for them to lie.

Trump has dementia, he has checked out of every presidential activity. What's left of his mind meanders from thought to thought, until he decides to spew a usually incoherent stream of invective and gibberish. It's astounding that anyone assigns credence to his "plans" or "ideas", he is just the front man for whatever advisor is able to convince him to adopt their incompetently devised strategy.

“Bring back the swimming pool!”

…that would be progress- can’t have any of that during the Trump administration, so say Hawaiian judges…

The denial of coverage by other networks was pure kabuki.

It expired at midnite last night

They covered the Helipad inauguration but with the sound off as a symbol that they were not really covering it.

I loved the intro montage.

Never seen a Family Guy show, not even that many clips. But I am a huge fan of the way PDJT get folks like D3 spun up.

Don't you ever get dizzly, D3?

You like this until the other side is in power then you cry like a little fucking girl.

Aggie বলেছেন...

Let me see, now..... So, over 90% of the news coverage on Trump has been negative. I think I read this from the Pew Center or some other fairly neutral source. I.e., virtually all news coverage of Trump is negative, unless it's from News Max or Breitbart, who don't have significant market shares.

Now, they've banded together to deny Trump coverage, thinking this will injure him for midterms. But: Has he shut down an essentially negative newstream, one that is not very popular to begin with? And now, they're going 24/7 negative coverage on this particular subject, mostly. And no other, more or less.

I think the result might not be what they expect.

John henry বলেছেন...

Remeber a month or 2 back when PDJT did a speech from the Oval and the news channels refused to broadcast it?

Well, except CBS. They did something very clever. Despicable but clever.

They broadcast the first 20-30 minutes of the speech straight. But then they brought in a panel of deepthinkers. Instead of broadcasting the actual speech, the panel listened to the speech and then commented "Well, now he is talking about X. The reason this is horrible, racist, stupid, whatever, is..."

No matter how hard I try like I can hate the media and journalists enough. (Except packaging press and packaging journalists)

Are people not aware that the White House has had a YouTube channel since 2008? I get it that Trump is doing a rework of the YouTube White House presence, but that's what all administrations do. All he's doing is taking that YouTube channel and doing a big publicity stunt with it. He's not creating something new, he's reworking something that already existed.

Jim at বলেছেন...

Meh. Watch it or don't. It's a choice. I wouldn't know the first thing about Truth Social except for excerpts posted on sites like this. Same thing here.

If so, it seems to be working pretty well. Whoever negotiated the Greenland deal is obviously doing a great job. Why does this arrangement upset you?

rehajm বলেছেন...

I don’t watch Fox on my own. Sometimes it is on where I go. The wife used to record Gutfeld but I couldn’t stand it. Now The Gentleman and Duncombe House Diaries take up the TV when sports aren’t on…

Here’s a fact, “Truth” translates to Russian as “Pravda.”

The “Greenland deal is not fundamentally different than the 1951 treaty with Denmark, pretty much it a modernization without fundamental changes.

*The “Greenland deal is not fundamentally different than the 1951 treaty with Denmark, pretty much it a modernization without fundamental changes.*

Yes. It is.

Why do you continue to double down on things that can easily be proven wrong?

Mason G বলেছেন...

"Why do you continue to double down on things that can easily be proven wrong?"

Because the alternative is recognizing that Trump has accomplished something good for the country.

And we can't have that, now can we?

trumps army (MAGALITES)VIEW his new tv show as a simply direct communications channel that lets the administration speak to the public without relying on news networks.
The opposing force,(other 67% of people) see this launching as a government-branded TV stream while restricting some media access moves the White House closer to a state-media model and could undermine independent journalism.
FOR NOW White House-run video channel is not automatically equivalent to North Korean or Chinese state television. The concern arises because of the timing and the relationship between the channel and disputes with independent news outlets AND trumps banning of journalists which will be throw out very rapidly(really just another look over here ploy that fella likes to do while his is screwing up the country)Its just a taste of what authoritarian leaders go for, like XI and Kim and Vlad etc.. DIFFERENCE, there is still other media available(for now)unlike the other countries. DEFLECTION GAME as elections get closer and closer. This perp is not that difficult to see through. This guy will go down in history taking over 1st place from Benedict Arnold AS THE WORST A major WAR MONGER. :( 43 days America will put a muzzle on this fella)

Trump could and should have just barred his people from talking to them. Pretend they don’t exist. Look through them. That would drive them crazy and also would probably be legal.
