Trump, like most people dislike a biased press and press that conceals facts through word trickery and works against US interests.

The internet has more information these days and the major media, other than the Fox network it seems, wants to get back their monopoly and hush up anyone else. They bought Facebook. They support any candidate who also wants to close off the free flow of information on the Web. That's all on the democratic side here and in corrupt foreign countries.

He doesn't fear the press. The press fears free speech.

@SteelHands Oh Trump can have as much free speech as he wants. But just because he says something that is not true, doesn't mean he shouldn't be questioned and criticized for it. And that's what Trump doesn't like, when he's questioned and criticized.
