    An attack on a free press by a sitting US president is a slap in the face to democracy, our country's founders and the American people.
    The FAKE NEWS media (failing @nytimes, @NBCNews, @ABC, @CBS, @CNN) is not my enemy, it is the enemy of the American People!

    Please stop attacking journalists covering protests. They are there to tell YOUR story. #1stamendment
    I’m was attacked by protestors downtown by the arena. They stomped and kicked me. I’m bruised and bloody but alive. My camera was destroyed. Another group of protesters pulled me out and saved my life. Thank you! @KDKA

    Despite what President Trump says, journalists love the USA. We go to work each day to inform people about OUR country. #EPluribusUnum
    Trump flirting with "enemy of the American people" rhetoric again: "I really think they don't like our country. I really believe that."

    "'Farrow and team will investigate threats, intimidation and violence directed at journalists working to expose corruption and abuse by governments, corporations and other powerful interests,' HBO said in the announcement."

    This is repugnant. Journalism is protected by the U.S. Constitution. Journalists must not be intimidated, attacked or harassed for doing their job.

    "If you’re a good journalist, there are going to be people on both sides of the political aisle that will get mad at times, and my job is to just focus on being as fair as I possibly can be..." 2021 Fellow of the Society @Yamiche told Quill. bit.ly/3zf0OWz

    In a statement the publishers of @nytimes, @WSJ and @washingtonpost said: “The media is collateral damage in a diplomatic dispute between the Chinese and U.S. governments, threatening to deprive the world of critical information at a perilous moment.” apnews.com/effffed56e8545…

    ICYMI: SPJ is outraged by the expelling of U.S. journalists from China, a country where the need for independent press is paramount, especially during the current coronavirus pandemic. We urge Beijing to reverse this decision. bit.ly/395FiX8

    "You ask how I’m doing. At the moment I’m — I’ve got one leg. I’ve got no feet. I see through one eye. Got one workable hand. I was burnt all over. And I feel stronger, I feel more confident than I ever have, @BenjaminHallFNC said." bit.ly/3R9mJZK

    The arrest of @OmarJimenez and @CNN crew by @MnDPS_MSP is a clear abridgment of #pressfreedoms. These journalists work ethically — and often in harm's way — to bring important news to the public. The reporters' unwarranted arrest is inexcusable. cnn.it/3cfi0iQ

    Objectivity and equivalence are not the same. Journalists should call out racism, Antisemitism and discrimination. bit.ly/2vBMhX2

    President Trump, the press has thick skin. We expect politicians to share that quality.
    I will be announcing THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR on Monday at 5:00 o’clock. Subjects will cover Dishonesty & Bad Reporting in various categories from the Fake News Media. Stay tuned!

    SPJ is deeply concerned about the raid on the Marion County Record. SPJ is offering help covering up to $20,000 in legal fees for the newsroom, and condemns this brazen action taken by law enforcement to stop the flow of information. spj.org/news.asp?ref=2…
