Trump exposes the media as partisans

Published February 24, 2017 5:02am ET



Love it or hate it, President Trump’s feud with the media has exposed one thing: The mainstream media is not and has never been objective. He’s just willing to call them out for the partisans they have always been.

Does he take it too far by labeling them an “enemy of the American people”? Yes, but he is right to call them out for biased coverage that skews Left. Trump will also come out on top with his war against the establishment media because they lack credibility. And as CBS’ John Dickerson recently said, the “press did all that good work ruining its reputation on its own.”
