Rob Reiner Blasts The Media For Putting Kellyanne Conway On The Air
Hey Jake Tapper, are you listening?
During a discussion which started off on the way Trump manipulates the press, and his use of the words "excuse me" to shut down any sort of questioning he doesn't like, AM Joy guest, acclaimed actor, director and producer Rob Reiner took a whack at the media for allowing the likes of Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Kellyanne Conway to pollute our airways with their constant gaslighting.
And the thing that's odd about it is that the press simply doesn't walk away from him or turn off the cameras, in the same way he was kind of able to bully the White House Corespondents' Association to not have a comedian. So it works.
REINER: It does work and what he's done, you referenced Sarah Sanders, her entire job is “excuse me.” That's what she's doing. She's basically saying, I'm not going to talk to anybody about anything.
And he does have his propaganda wing with Fox, who he doesn't say “excuse me” to. And he is, the one thing he is good at is understanding how to work the media.
