The Implications of Trump’s War on Journalists

In an unprecedented move for any U.S. President, Trump’s administration sent out an email on Thursday asking his supporters to take a Media Accountability Survey. The survey asks questions like, “Do you trust CNN to report fairly on Trump’s presidency?” And “Do you believe that our party should spend more time and resources holding the mainstream media accountable?” Some might remember that Trump sent a similar poll in August as a presidential candidate – but it’s the first of its kind from an acting president. Today Emily Dugdale spoke with Fred Blevens, who teaches media and law at Florida International University to talk about where this leaves journalists.
