Overview

The free press was created by the first amendment to the US Constitution. It is free in that it is not controlled by the government-merely enabled by the government. It really is not free in 2019 because it answers to a calling other than to the people. Corporate masters and liberal progressive socialist owners call the shots and the shots are almost always directed at the general public save for those who may subscribe to the same ideology.The fourth estate of power is supposed to be the press alongside the presidency, the Congress, and the courts. Many believe that through corruption and affiliations with political parties, corporations, owners, and donors, the idea of a fourth estate to protect the people from all other aspects of government has passed on with the dodo bird.

Despite devoting many dozens of reporters to bring down Trump, the corrupt press has been unable to do so as The Donald knows their game better than they do, and so far, he has played it better than they. The press, is supposed to be above politics but recently it aligns itself with government, political parties, corporations, unions, and other entities, instead of the people. It has not been serving its constitutional role, and so it deserves no special treatment as a fourth estate of US power. In fact, the people are obligated to reign it in.Brian W.
