MeAgain Kelly: I'm Totes Worried About Trump's "Dangerous" De-Legitimization of the Media

Nothing but ego and skinny legs.

I really don't like people like this: Lawyers who think five votes by judges are the end-all be-all, reporters who think that Reportage is just the yak's tits. It's a very provincial, egotistical, solipsistic way to view the world: I trained in the use of the hammer, therefore, all the problems of the world can be classified as types of nails.

People who think this way do so to construct a belief in themselves as the omnicompetent hero, always the Man in the Arena, always the keystone upon which the burden of the arc of history weighs.

Everyone is the hero of their own life movie, but MeAgain is also the hero of your life movie.

And any tribe to which she belongs is therefore the Best Tribe and must be championed.

Her membership in the Media is what gives her Status; like all egotistical people, she will defend the source of her Status like a warrior bee defends its queen.

We begin this Hero's Tale as we begin all Hero's Tales, with an origin story. John McCain had his seven years as a prisoner tortured daily in North Vietnam; MeAgain's origin story begins, as usual, with her torture by Mean Tweets on Twitter.

Kelly felt that power firsthand in August 2015, when she pressed the candidate about his derogatory comments about women during the first Republican primary debate. Trump responded with a Twitter attack, which was quickly followed up by a barrage of insulting tweets and even death threats from his followers.

"What people don't realize about Donald Trump — and I don't even know if Donald Trump realizes it — is that every tweet he unleashes against you ... creates such a crescendo of anger," Kelly says.

The host of The Kelly File says that although she worried for her own safety and that of her children, she and her producers were determined not to let the threats impact their coverage of Trump. Now that Trump is the president-elect, she is especially concerned about his "de-legitimization" of the media.

"I think it's dangerous," Kelly says. "People ... need good, strong, skeptical journalists to be covering whoever it is -- whether it's Barack Obama or President Donald Trump -- and we're in a dangerous phase right now, where too many millions of Americans aren't listening at all to what the press tells them."

The Press is your teacher, and you are its Students, kneeling before your master, who will impart wisdom to you, if you would only be good students and believe what master tells you.

59 I suppose MeAgain, having studied as a lawyer before going into TV news is doubly prone to think this way.

As far as *oh no people don't trust the MFM and that is dangerous*. Well MeAgain if the press would have been skeptical of Obama and willing to criticize at least the most egregiously bad stuff his administration did we might not have over half the country deciding that anything the MFM spews is only meant to advance marxism, so we aren't listening unless a conservative blog links it from a more neutral source.

Smartest thing the commies ever did was infiltrate journalism schools. Dumbest thing American media ever did was go along with thinking they should hire reporters with that specialized college degree. Now its about too late because almost everyone with a recent college degree has been indoctrinated to believe they need to shape the narrative to make the world a better place.

Coulter sat through (and laughed through) the Rob Lowe roast where *she* was called a c#nt 17 times. Then everyone in the MSM laughed about it.

Further, look at the presumption on her part that the American media is needed to make your own mind up. This concept of an independent media is relatively new in American history. Before it was all propaganda media (or at least ackowledged to be so ... it never really changed).

75 It's dangerous when the 'free press' turns into propaganda. That's what we see Ms. Kelly. I've seen it since my high school days when I started to read the paper. Obvious bias. Left views only. Word choice selected to denigrate anything conservative.

It's only gotten worse because NO ONE held the press accountable. Until now.

Ms. Kelly you aren't used to the public pointing the finger at YOU, are you? You think that just because you are labeled as 'the press' you get a free pass to write and say and do anything without regard for honesty or even balance.

Try this one weird trick, Ms. Kelly: Take a story about Obama in the Washington Post. Rewrite it with the same verbs and adjectives used in a story about Trump. Then see how you feel.

Is the press biased? Do they inject their opinion into the stories they are writing? Do they dump stories that they feel won't push a certain narrative? Have there been big news stories that haven't been covered thoroughly in the major newspapers and on the major networks?

If I can see it, then why can't you, Ms. Kelly?

[ x ] My children live in fear, because of Trump
[ x ] FOX is bad, because it gave me no safe way to call Ailes on his sexual harassment

113 I'm pretty sure that Me-Again thought her "takedown" of Trump in the primary debate and his subsequent attack on her would sink his candidacy - because the American public would just not stand for such an attack on such a beloved and noble journalist.

But it didn't. Nobody gave that much of a damn outside of her little media circle. She kept on attacking Trump again and again, daily, for the remainder of the campaign - and nobody cared.
All that happened was Rachel Maddow was getting more viewers than she was toward the end of the campaign.

And oh, how that must piss her off. She's found out, that like all the other celebs and talking heads, she isn't the massively important, influential person she thought she was.

115 Back on topic, I think the danger began when we began to trust the media at all. Way back in Ben Franklin's day, the press was loud and biased and not taken as gospel. The problem is that we became used to them being the source of truth since they 'talked' to all of us. We assumed they knew what they were talking about.

They didn't. They never did.

We're better off talking to each other. I'd rather read a post or tweet by someone who actually knows the subject.

I don't believe her. I do not believe there were credible threats beyond internet DIAF type threats.

Nope. I do not believe this.

Salena Zito, whose work I generally find interesting, went on a twitter whine a bit back about how she was at a Trump rally and a woman wanted to know if she was with CNN and if so she was going to spit at her and Zito got her panties in a bunch about it.

It never once occurred to her that maybe, just maybe, CNN has acted in such a manner that its reporters deserve to be spat upon. This notion that the media can demean and disparage people with no consequences is absurd.

I play with words for a living and have for longer than I care to admit. As a result, I understand that words are not everything. Some problems can be solved with words. But others? Nope.


We can draft you a sales agreement dividing up the family business. We cannot draft anything that solves the underlying issues that resulted in family members being unable to be in the same room when it comes time to sign that agreement.

Reporters can bleat about how they should be respected. But no amount of words can make me respect someone whose actions are contemptible.

230 The form of media that's dominated by a handful of large voices was always going to go away in time. It's a model that's only sustainable as long as no one else can get into the market. And, when getting into the market meant building a national TV station or national subscription service based on a massive, daily printing operation, the model was sustainable.

As soon as the Internet opened up those borders, the writing was on the wall. The only question became, "How long will the giants last?"

If they had actually been as dedicated to objectivity and "afflicting the comfortable while comforting the afflicted" (which I know is actually a form of yellow journalism, but natch), then we'd be looking at, probably, a few more decades of unquestioned dominance as smaller outlets tried to match the levels of trust built over the course of previous decades.

Instead, they went whole hog for one side of a political argument. They reacted to competition very very badly.

Until Democrats actually end up repealing the First Amendment, we're going to have a free press in this country. Just because it's not dominated by a group of corporations that don't know how to put together a good product doesn't mean that the world of journalism is ending. Just the old way of doing things.

Good riddance.

Before the 2016 primary formed, I was on Team Perry, and the one thing that I wanted him to do was to sit with Newt and figure out how to fight the press.

I wonder if he'd been able to get any traction if he had done it.
Posted by: TheJamesMadison at December 07, 2016 12:58 PM (vur0q)

No.
Because he's fucking dumb.

Seriously, he's done such a good job with a big state like Texas, so I too figured he'd be a good candidate for President.
Twice.


Turns out he's just dumb.

1. a DAILY internet stream of Conservative news... for free... put ads down the side...

2. Associated Press, and UPI need to go away... we need actual reporters in the field, not people who read a few press reports, from ONE OR TWO sources, off a teleprompter... (one way to do this, is using the above internet channel, to pay Non Journalists for stories... ).

I think the way it'll all end up breaking out is a faster, digitized version of newspapers in the early 19th century.

Highly politicized, tribal and with voices coming and going with fair regularity.

I'd be completely okay with a news organization becoming a mouth piece of the sitting president, as long as it was obviously so.

Let the biases fly and let them be known. Maybe it worked better back in the day because the federal government was less involved in our day to day lives, but who knows?

"This crescendo of anger from false narratives pushed by the Media has led to numerous assassinations of police officers and riots and attacks on law-abiding citizens," he continued, "and that's just the latest example in a long history of phony narratives supported by the Media to serve a radical and destructive ideological agenda."

They are perfectly content when the bottom 25% circulates tabloid crap. What they're mad about is that the top 50% is no longer circulating their pretentious crap.

396 As I am sure has been pointed out, but her error is in thinking that Trump delegitimized the press rather than their own actions. This sentiment was already commonplace. Trump just voiced it. Sure, he did it in a whiny and self-serving manner where it was all about him, but the people understand that is as good as they are going to get out of this wholly execrable ruling class.

Just today the Republican House reps managed to fend off any punishment for the IRS over targeting Tea Party groups. It is like they want angry mobs to turn up and start burning the Capitol down to the ground. They never, ever stop and think about what their job is and why they are there. They always think about how they can protect their cronies and those in the club from ever having to face any consequences, because every last damned one of them knows that if they got what was coming to them it would not be a pretty sight. That is why they feared a completely peaceful Tea Party movement the way they did. They thought the day had arrived when they would finally be held to account. Now it is the turn for the press to be in the barrel and they too are determined not to learn anything. They will make every excuse they can think of to avoid admitting fault and doing their jobs.

Go away. Go to CNN and never be seen again. As Milo said the other day, she has reached the pinnacle of her fame and it is all downhill from here. He also said her book sucks (not that I would read or buy).

I vote to give her no attention. Then see if the libs take her under their scrawny wings.

478 Admittedly I defended her at the very beginning because I thought Trump's history as I was very aware of prior to his run , deserved any shot thrown at him.

Of course, we soon learned Kelley had her own selfish agenda and over inflated ego combined with faux victimhood. She went on to lie and misrepresent throughout the campaign and show her true colors. I can't stand her and hope she fails.

515 Here's a tip for this dumbass:

The "delegitimization" of the media is not caused by Donald Trump.

It is caused by the horrifically incompetent retards in the media exhibiting their tribal biases and nakedly demonstrating that their status as "gatekeepers of the truth" or the vaunted "4th estate" is no longer LEGITIMATE.

Why is it that you have to blame someone else for your own failures ?

Posted by: deadrody at December 07, 2016 02:40 PM (vJOFB)

516 What's more ? Whe the fuck can't anyone ASK THAT QUESTION ? Why, as a society, do we place glorified spokesmodels like Megyn Kelly, Tom Brokaw, and Lester Holt in a position in which they cannot be questioned ? Why do we assume people whose main talents are 1) looking good, and 2) talking good have some higher knowledge to impart, that they can accurately and dispassionately analyze complex situations and provide us with, not just objective analysis, but some kind of morality tale as to what is "best" for us all.

Such total Bullshit. Why as a member of the media, does anyone assume that Kelly knows what is good for society and democracy as it regards the media ? Where is the third party with oversight of the media to weigh in with exaclty the angle I presented ?!!!?!!?!

Of course, to follow on all of that ? Nobody in the real world gives a flying fuck whether Megyn Kelly thinks Donald Trump's daily tweets are "delegitimizing" the media, and therefore that is an existential threat to democracy. In fact, some 60+ million people just voted to say, "Fuck you, establishment media. You're completely full of shit"

Posted by: deadrody at December 07, 2016 02:50 PM (vJOFB)

517 The media destroyed it's own already diminished reputation by 8 years as a cheer leader for Obama. But Kelly won't admit that because they may be her future employer.
The media itself and some blue state liberals are the only people who think they have credibility. According to Pew only 9% of American think the media has credibility.
I get that kelly was the subject of a bunch of online morons, welcome to the club. Her TV feud with Trump was great for both of them, she knows it and so does Trump.
The best gift Trump can give the country beyond a conservative Supreme Court is planting the slogan "dishonest media" to replace MSM.
