As we told you last night, a Louisville police officer took aim at a local reporter and fired pepper balls.
New York Times White House correspondent Katie Rogers is putting that on Trump:
It’s almost like, I don’t know, Americans been told several times a week for 3.5 years that reporters are the enemies of the people. https://t.co/Pphx9Xkmx7

Because that kind of thing didn’t happen before Trump took office?
"Trump made that cop do that," explained the White House correspondent for the NYT https://t.co/5Q6VZnzgb1

Trust in the media is at historic low not because of Trump…he’s a symptom, not the cause. Try being better at your job.

Trump did not destroy public trust in you. You did that to yourselves.
I cannot remember a time when you in the media did not treat half the country like garbage.
Do better. https://t.co/YmYG7R9Tvy
