CNN’s obsession with Donald Trump has even been panned by journos like former “Nightline” anchor Ted Koppel, but Brian Stelter didn’t agree with that criticism. In actuality, Stelter wonders if media outlets should be even more obsessed with covering Trump news and rumors, and thinks journos might be derelict in their duties:

As for CNN, they couldn’t possibly talk about Trump more, so we’re not sure what Stelter has in mind as far as turning up the anti-Trump alarm.

The conclusion drawn will be to cry wolf a lot louder and more often.
Does this sound like an impartial press to you?
Media: “Why you shouldn’t support the president and if you still do we haven’t done a good enough job trying to destroy him the last two years.” https://t.co/OQhpbp69bn— Lawrence Polyakov (@Larrypolya22) December 17, 2018
Stop over hyping every….. little…..freaking……detail. Report the facts then do an overview show at the end of the day.

I've tuned it out, and I have a semi-professional interest in paying attention to it. Most people do not care.

But we thought it was a threat to democracy to criticize the media. How confusing!
