Uhhh... no. Inviduals don't have to just take it, they can respond. The difference is public figures have less rights when it comes to defamation.

I'm not implying the president should use his power to silence the media, I'm saying he's allowed to respond. Quite frankly, Trump responding has hurt CNN because they're idiots and demonstrate it when they respond to Trump.

Again, the media is very unfair to Trump so I think its good he challenges them. CNN has gone from one the most respected news outlets to a joke. Trump has challenged the media that attacks him and his response has mostly been in his favor.

I don't really care how a president SHOULD act, Trump was never supposed to be the traditional president. I credit Trump for putting a spotlight on the media and it ultimately showed its mostly garbage.

Telling lies about the media shows nothing more than it's apparently ok for the president to constantly lie to defame his enemies. Let's not kid ourselves, the vast majority he said about the media are clearly lies.

We shouldn't give credit to a pathological liar when he sometimes by accident gets something right.

Ohhh.... the problem is the media gets caught in lies and spends too much time speculating. Again, CNN admitted they push anti Trump stories for ratings and recently had to fire people over fake news.

They defame him, he returns the favorite, its good fun and the media ultimately loves it. Gives them something to talk about. RATINGS!

Ultimately, Trump responds to a media that's objectively unfair to him. I think it works best for him if he responds, otherwise he's just a punching bag.
