VIDEO - Nets Freak Out Over Trump Presser: ‘Combative,’ ‘Shocking,’ ‘Unhinged’ | MRCTV

More in the cross-post on the MRC's NewsBusters blog.

On Friday, the broadcast networks continued their hyperventilating over President Trump taking on the media during his Thursday press conference. All three morning shows were beside themselves as hosts and correspondents breathlessly hurled one sensational adjective after another to describe the event, including: “raucous,” “combative,” “shocking,” “jaw-dropping,” “unhinged,” and “astonishing.”

At the top of NBC’s Today, co-host Matt Lauer declared: “...the President holds a raucous and combative face-off with the media, defending his first month in office....This morning, the highs and lows of a White House news conference like no other in history.” Introducing the coverage moments later, he noted: “...a lot of the talk is still focused on those fireworks from Mr. Trump's first solo news conference.”
