You claimed the press gets a free pass to libel people.  As you just admitted that is wrong.  In fact, since you actually know the basis on which people can successfully sue the media for libel, it's deliberately wrong.

The American Supreme Court has developed American jurisprudence on freedom of the press over many years, and Americans believe it serves them well.  If Trump wants to reverse that, he will pay the price - no matter how many times he brays his idiot mantra "fake news."
