    Why is the media permitting Trump to set the terms of their daily coverage via Twitter? That's the fundamental issuehttps://twitter.com/ErikWemple/status/829080275284029440 …

        No one suggested they're "not newsworthy," but the media has discretion in terms of emphasis

        it's almost like they don't have editorial control of own programming, guests and topics. Or are just well dressed vultures.

        @ErikWemple Is it because everything coming out of news orgs is full of fake stories and hit jobs? Yet to see anything positive.

        The bottom line is you are not in charge. The more you try to set Trump's agenda & tell him how to think or act the more we laugh
