Your post is quite ironic.
- axaxs 6y agoWhy do people get so defensive when 'their side' is questioned? Is your solution to forever go back and forth silencing each other because the other guys did it first? I am not picking sides. I think it's unprofessional for the president to constantly call things like 'Fake News', but I don't remember them going to cable companies to try and get them canceled. And if they did, I oppose that just the same. Personally, I got so sick of all news being all Trump all the time, I question any claim that media was in any way silenced.
