We're journalists, we're not enemies.

I wish President Trump denounced the Neonists, with the same passion that denounciates, and as sincerely as the journalists.

Would it be easier to distance yourself from the Nazis or violent white superiorists? However, Trump manages to make it forever more complicated and then distract himself and attacks on journalists devoted to journalism. The main line of his sulphur speech in Phoenix on Tuesday was a wide attack on dishonest reporters “ ” (including the failed New York Times.

You see, we who deal with journalism deserve to have <x0 feet on fire”. We make mistakes all the time, and very often we are superficial, sensationalistic, unfair, protective, or entertained by excellent objects. Critics are right that we in national media often lose touch with middle-class America, and very often we were laps, rather than being guards.

Despite all our shortcomings, however, journalism remains a necessary inhibitor of power. The Trump has systematically tried to delegate institutions that hold him responsible by courts, prosecutors, investigators, the media, and that's the context of slander he makes to all of them, as we all offer monitoring that angers him.

New York Times and Washington Post have written, each separately, about Trump's lies, while Washington Post has already calculated Trump has made more than 1,000 malicious statements since the presidency. It's a scary pace, almost five a day, and it's speeding up. This spread of lies is an indication that John F. Kelly's not able to contain Trump, and that the problem was not Steve Bannon, but the president himself.

The cartooning of journalists from Trump, as dishonest, is hypocritical, and he insults the courage and professionalism of my colleagues, who sometimes risk life, in trying to make news.

I've lost friends of reporters and photographers in war zones all over the world, while my friends have been kidnapped and tortured. When Trump electrocutes the crowds against journalists in a hall, I worry we might lose journalists in charge, not just in places like Syria, but here in America. Trump will make people hurt.

I also worry that Trump is adding to the oppressive instincts of dictators around the world. Since his election, I have been denied entry into Venezuela, Congo, South Sudan and Yemen, an unusual number of countries, and I wonder if foreign leaders believe it is easier to deny the right to enter American journalists now that they are also attacked by their own president.

Besides Trump's desire to reduce monitoring and accountability, there are other theories on why Trump finds it so difficult to denounce the Nazis and other racists without getting involved in attacks against journalists.

One is that he has always had a weak point since he was a real estate developer indicted by the Department of Justice, then Republican, for having discriminated against blacks. Over the years, he has also been quoted as saying that “demestism is a trait of black”, has refused to distance himself from Ku Klux Klan, and has periodically made transfers to the messages of the neo-Nazis (including one from an account called the Barand Genocide TM, with a picture of the founder of the American Nazi Party.

Another theory (they don't rule out each other) is that Trump is just a narcissist that separates the sense of victimism that supremeists have. It was impressive that in Tuesday's speech in Phoenix, he seemed to believe that the biggest victim in Charlottesville was not Heather Heyer, who was killed, but he himself.

Yet another possibility, which was only whispered before, but now more and more open by congressmen, is that our president is mentally stable. The causes of Trump's strange behavior may be difficult to unlock. But I hope you, as members of the public, will understand what's at stake following his attacks on the media. This is not about reporters and mistakes we make, but about institutional control over the presidency.

We appreciate them, not always with the right kindness, the public's efforts to keep us honest. We are also grateful for the explosion of subscriptions to news organisations, as well as support for organisations like the Committee for the Protection of Journalists. The irony has been that, the more Trump slanders the media, the more the public has gathered around us and in the end, this is helping us to improve our business model. Since Trump was chosen, the price of shares of the Times company has increased by almost two-thirds. Thank you for your help, Mr. President!

This is an extraordinary moment in the history of our nation, because we are conducting an epic battle for the principles on which our country has been established. These include the idea that a defectively free media is an essential constitutional control over flawed leaders.

So let me humbly suggest that, when a megaloman leader vents on critics, then institutional control over that leadership becomes a patron of democracy. / New York Times ) The world..
