Kudos to this brave reporter who stood up for the country. While the lying President gets away with made up nonsense and then deftly swipes away any character flaw revealed by the media by claiming them as fake news, this man stood up where the rest were too timid to say what they were thinking. Yes the media acts as a big checks and balance, it helps educate the lemmings, it exposes the wrong doers, they amplify and announce to the public when the other branches of government work as a check and balance. The media is the mouthpiece that brings the message, sometimes the message gets corrupted as in the case of the CNN workers getting fired, but they checked themselves and corrected selves. When has Trump corrected himself through all his flubs? I hate it when people claim to be patriotic but then place party before country, this is not about Trump, this is about country and everyone should be supporting what is best for it.
