But they are "the enemy of the people" figuratively speaking. They lie _all the time_, they're routinely caught and called out, and they continue to lie. The only two journalists that I know of who point out this sorry state of affairs are Matt Taibbi and Glenn Greenwald. Neither is a fan of Trump in the least. Everyone else is perfectly OK with it. Far fewer people trust the press than the president. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/08/18/rasmussen_new_poll_shows_voters_trust_national_political_media_about_the_same_as_they_trust_wikipedia.html https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/08/18/rasmussen... They are supposed to inform. Instead, most of the time, they push disinformation to fit a predefined agenda. Jeff Zucker literally tells CNN talking heads what to say in his 9AM meeting. This is not "free press". This is a fucking disgrace, and it is actively harmful to "the people", especially when there's a crisis. Let me give you an example: https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/23/health/arizona-coronavirus-chloroquine-death/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/23/health/arizona-coronavirus-ch.... Unless you read the article carefully, you will get the impression that the man medicated himself with the actual chloroquine pills. This is NOT what happened: he ate god damn aquarium cleaner by the spoonful. The front page of CNN is FULL of this bullshit. Literally all of the liberal outlets reprint these stories _knowing_ they are fake or misleading (just serarch Google for "chloroquine" and see for yourself, today - it'll be full of the same dude who ingested aquarium cleaner). And that's before we even mention lying by omission, which also happens all the time.
