Eric Schiffer: Media Commentary to the Contrary, Trump’s Letter to Kim Jong Un ‘Could Actually Work’
RUSH EXCERPT:
MacDONALD: "Eric, Laura Ingraham went after MSNBC Stephanie Ruhle after she called trump canceling the summit a huge wow for us. Let’s watch."
[START CLIP]
INGRAHAM: "Well at least Stephanie Ruhle is kind of admitting that the media do not exist to report on trump, but to revel in his perceived missteps."
[END CLIP]
MacDONALD: "Eric do you see, what do you see in terms of fair and balanced coverage of president Trump getting even this far with North Korea?"
SCHIFFER: "It doesn’t exist. In most quarters, now there are some journalists that I think are fair and I think are really reporting, but most -- there's just are such a hatred and it’s intense. Laura Ingraham is right on the money. I think that at some point, this just continues to I think damage the credibility of so many that want to be considered objective amidst the death of objective journalism. And it’s sad because there’s such a personal element to this and such a visceral sort of want to destroy at all costs, even when it looked like we’re going to have peace there was always a skepticism there was always some kind of an element. Look, I don’t think this is over. I bet on Donald Trump in terms of being able to wheel and deal. This is an interim element for business people. This can still absolutely happen and I thought his letter was actually different and unique and it’s something that could actually work. We’ve gone years with nothing North Korea."
