Goldberg: There’s a ‘Mutual Lack of Admiration Society’ Between Trump and Media

‘I’ve always argued that in a free country, we need a strong, credible mainstream media’

EXCERPT:

GOLDBERG: "He understands very well that a lot of Americans don’t trust the mainstream media. So, he taps into that. He is trying to delegitimize the mainstream media and he is doing it with some success. People didn’t like the press before Donald Trump; they really don’t like the press now. But the press in some -- in some parts at some times is also trying to delegitimize Donald Trump. It's a mutual lack of admiration society and as I say, it's not good. He is different than anybody who's preceded him. He has gotten into a contentious relationship with the press, and I don’t ink it's going to go away. And I don’t think any of us need this in the next four years."
