Donald Trump has more or less waged a war on the main stream media. He has gone as far as to have certain reporters from different newspapers removed from press conferences. Many in the main stream media have written about this idea and how it slaps the American people in the face. After all, the American people deserve to know the truth.
Yes, everyone living in the United States does deserve to know the truth. The problem is the main stream media is not delivering the truth. Most news outlets report at best only partial truths. Leaving out crucial information is akin to reporting a lie.

When someone asks why Donald Trump would attack the main stream media, the better question is what took anyone so long to do it. Former President Obama was a media darling. He’d tell the people what they wanted to hear, even though it often proved to be false (remember the line of “you can keep your same doctor’s under Obamacare?”).
