Trump blasts US media as ‘compromised and corrupt’

US legacy media news

The New York Times, Washington Post and others are “the enemy of the people,” the US president has said.

US President Donald Trump has labeled American media “compromised and corrupt,” accusing it of publishing “fake” polls that understate his approval ratings.

Trump’s rant followed the publication of surveys by the New York Times and ABC/Washington Post respectively which suggested that support for the president was at record low as he approached the hundredth day of his second term in the White House.

“We don’t have a Free and Fair “Press” in this Country anymore. We have a Press that writes BAD STORIES, and CHEATS, BIG, ON POLLS. IT IS COMPROMISED AND CORRUPT. SAD,” he wrote in a post on his Truth Social platform on Monday.

Trump insisted that “great Pollster John McLaughlin, one of the most highly respected in the industry, has just stated that The Failing New York Times Poll, and the ABC/Washington Post Poll, about a person named DONALD J. TRUMP, ME, are FAKE POLLS FROM FAKE NEWS ORGANIZATIONS.”

McLaughlin, a veteran researcher and political consultant often branded “Trump’s pollster” by the US media, later shared a screenshot of the US leader’s post on his account on X.

“The New York Times has only 37% Trump 2024 voters, and the ABC/Washington Post Poll has only 34% Trump Voters, unheard of numbers unless looking for a negative result, which they are,” Trump insisted.

He said that the media organizations should be investigated for fraud, along with the Fox News pollster that suggested that 44% of Americans approved of the president’s “overall job performance.”

“They are Negative Criminals who apologize to their subscribers and readers after I WIN ELECTIONS BIG, much bigger than their polls showed I would win, loose a lot of credibility, and then go on cheating and lying for the next cycle, only worse,” Trump stressed.

The president also claimed that American media outlets “suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, and there is nothing that anyone, or anything, can do about it. THEY ARE SICK, almost only write negative stories about me no matter how well I am doing… AND ARE TRULY THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!”

    The media is a propaganda tool of government…

    Joseph Goebbels, the head of Nazi Germany’s Ministry of Propaganda
    Joseph Goebbels also put forth a theory which has come to be commonly associated with the expression “big lie”.
    Alleged quotation
    The following supposed quotation of Joseph Goebbels has been repeated in numerous books and articles and on thousands of web pages, yet none of them has cited a primary source. According to the research and reasoning of Randall Bytwerk, it is an unlikely thing for Goebbels to have said:[16]
    “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
