I'm not a fan of Trump in general but if you went out and asked democrats the same question about Fox news I wonder if the stats would be similar. I have to imagine they would be.

When asked if Trump should close down specific outlets, including CNN, The Washington Post, and The New York Times, nearly a quarter of Republicans (23 percent) agreed and 49 percent disagreed.

I take your point, but then FOX news is literally propaganda. :thinking: Sean Hannity and Trump have cute bedtime talks and everything. That ain't right. Also they call themselves "entertainment" to escape consequences.

The Left, Yesterday (8/7): "Yeah, we need to remove MORE shows from being hosted on websites!"

The Left, Today (8/8): "How DARE the Republicans want the President to shut down media outlets that engage in bad behavior!"

I can't keep up.

Twitter banning an account = the president shutting down a media outlet?
