the First Amendment,\u201d Donald Trump?)<\/p>\n<p>Joe Simonson wrote an Opinion piece for the New York Post back on Dec. 2, headlined \u201cObama\u2019s pathetic \u2018blame Fox\u2019

the president\u2019s legacy. . . .<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVoters told Obama and the Democratic Party that they were out of touch with their concerns. So how did the president respond? Essentially: It\u2019s all Fox News\u2019 fault,\u201d Mr. Simonson explains.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs he put it in a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the reason Democrats can\u2019t attract voters beyond the East and West coasts isn\u2019t their policies but the fact that \u2018Fox News [is] in every bar and restaurant in big chunks of the country.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSure, Mr. President, millions of Americans across the country leave their jobs and homes at the end of the day, go to their neighborhood eatery or watering hole, watch \u2018The O\u2019Reilly Factor\u2019 and have their brains washed.

Truth is, Obama &#8212; like other top Democrats &#8212; probably hasn\u2019t been to many bars in the last eight years, even if he doesn\u2019t mind declaring what\u2019s on their televisions and how they\u2019re being secretly turned against his party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is, of course, no conspiracy by the diner and bar owners of America to broadcast one single news channel, even if many do,\u201d Mr. Simonson continues, in his piece in the Dec. 2 New York Post. \u201cBut the president\u2019s repeated singling out of a single network should concern all Americans, not just conservatives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFox News has been a consistent target for Obama\u2019s frustrations, blaming the network, as he did in September, for creating a \u2018very polarized society\u2019 and \u2018churning out a lot of misinformation on a regular basis.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe president\u2019s recent hits on Fox just add to his long, pathological fixation on the cable news network. Even back in 2009, as e-mails obtained by Judicial Watch later showed, the Obama administration tried excluding Fox News from an interview with a Treasury Department official. . . .<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd conservatives are the ones responsible for a toxic media environment? . . .<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s no better way to put it: The president is stoking the flames of censorship. Instead of focusing on policy, helping the nation heal or just .\u2009.\u2009. going away, he\u2019s pointing blame for his party\u2019s failures at the press. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor all the talk about Donald Trump\u2019s contentious relationship with the media, Obama\u2019s language and actions toward Fox News and other conservative media outlets is just, if not more, toxic. If you don\u2019t agree with Obama\u2019s policy on health-care reform, you must be some ignorant yahoo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere\u2019s some advice for the president: Instead of lambasting Fox News or something an aide saw once on social media, maybe take some time and think about why so many Americans are turning away from the mainstream media,\u201d Mr. Simonson concludes. <\/p>\n<p><strong>DON\u2019T KNOW HOW GOOD THEY\u2019VE GOT IT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So Obama was blaming everything on the fact that there was one -\u2013 one! -\u2013 somewhat conservative alternative news source to which American could turn to get a version of the news different from that uniformly packaged to order on CNN, MSNBC, CBS, The New York Times and the Washington Post.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve all seen in the Hillary-Podesta emails how her campaign complacently referred to &#8220;our press,&#8221; who would promote whatever story lines the Democrat campaign handed them, while sneaking candidate Hillary their planned debate questions in advance. It would be well within the authority of the Federal Elections Commission to file legal charges against these &#8220;news organizations&#8221; for failing to report their entire campaign news budgets since last August as (probably illegal) &#8220;in-kind contributions&#8221; to the &#8220;Hillary-for-President&#8221; campaign.  <\/p>\n<p>Yet the arrogant, \u201centitled\u201d Legacy Media now complain president Trump sometimes calls on someone else for questions?<\/p>\n<p>What if Mr. Trump proposed re-creating the White House Press Room full of reporters as a perfect mirror image of what Mr. Obama faced &#8212; one and only one leftist news source that endorsed Hillary for the presidency (CNN, NBC, CBS, the Washington Post, the New York Times, Politico, et al., could draw straws and take turns occupying that one seat) . . . and EVERYONE ELSE IN THE ROOM being as friendly to him and his entire agenda as all those long-time Leftists were to Mr. Obama?<\/p>\n<p>The shrieking and garment-rending would echo well beyond Iceland.
