It's okay for the mainstream media to lie and spread false, contrived propaganda as long as it's used to shit all over Trump, and/or conservatives, and/or Christians.
The mainstream media are out of touch with reality, when people see their smear campaign against Trump, it only rallies stronger and stronger support for Trump.
They tried this in 2016 with the Billy Bush tape, meanwhile Wikileaks was flooding the world with emails AKA real news, and the media didn't cover it and tried to claim it was illegal to read the emails. All lies by the MSM that are completely controlled and corrupt.
