Boston paper presses coordinated response to Trump's media criticisms
Opening Paragraphs of the article:
Boston newspaper is calling for publications nationwide to take a coordinated editorial stand against President Trump's attacks on the media.
"We are not the enemy of the people," The Associated Press quoted Marjorie Pritchard, deputy managing editor for the editorial page of The Boston Globe, as saying. AP said she was referring to a characterization of journalists that Trump has used in the past.
The president, who regularly declares that his administration is getting unfair media coverage, has made frequent speeches and tweets decrying "fake news" and fabricated sources. After his recent summit in Singapore with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, he assailed fake news as "our country's biggest enemy."
This is the very thing that the President has "complained about". The coordinaterd attacks on his presidency and his appointees. It is never just one paper or news organization, the get together and have a coordinated approach to the slamming of the target of the day.
Very similar to the attacks on Howard Roark in "The Fountainhead". No one, not even Gail Wynand's "The Banner" could stand against the combined weight o the opposition.
In this case, the opposition didn't count on the targets to have the backing of 1/2 of the country (or more).

You are exactly right.
More hypocrisy from the MSM. They claim 1st amendment protection as they censor the message of any who disagree with their "coordinated" irrational socialist prattle.
