    Wrong Mr. President. The media is not replete with intentionally false and inaccurate reporting. It’s fair for you to criticize bias and tone in coverage, but will you also take responsibiity for what you get wrong deliberately or otherwise? Fight less, unify more. Be big.

    A very big part of the Anger we see today in our society is caused by the purposely false and inaccurate reporting of the Mainstream Media that I refer to as Fake News. It has gotten so bad and hateful that it is beyond description. Mainstream Media must clean up its act, FAST!
