Trump's re-election campaign sends a memo to television producers on Monday instructing them to "employ basic journalistic standards when booking" six current or former government officials that the campaign said "made outlandish, false claims, without evidence" while on air.
The memo targets four Democratic lawmakers, including Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Rep. Jerry Nadler of New York, as well as Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez and former CIA Director John Brennan.

Nadler: Barr Will Be Called to Testify Before Congress on Mueller’s Obstruction of Justice Probe

Rep. Jerry Nadler, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, tweeted Sunday that the committee will call on Attorney General William Barr to testify before Congress and defend his conclusion that there’s “not sufficient” evidence Trump acted to obstruct justice. In the letter Barr submitted (https://www.thedailybeast.com/mueller-report-attorney-general-william-barr-gives-congress-summary) to congressional leaders Sunday outlining Mueller’s report, he wrote that the special counsel found “evidence on both sides” of the question of obstruction of justice, and did not make “a traditional prosecutorial judgement.” Barr added that when he and Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein reviewed the full report, the pair concluded that the evidence is “not sufficient” to establish that a crime was committed. Nadler slammed that decision in a series of tweets, writing that (https://twitter.com/RepJerryNadler/status/1109909950418038786) “Special Counsel Mueller worked for 22 months to determine the extent to which President Trump obstructed justice. Attorney General Barr took 2 days to tell the American people that while the President is not exonerated, there will be no action by DOJ.”

They're not news, but fake news-entertainment, when caught bullshitting. Then suddenly they're news and journalism needs to be protected when Trump starts calling them fake news.

Yea big part of it is a circus.

When MAGA used to have a reality TV show on NBC, wonder if they were bit more fact based and credible or have always been fakenews.
In future, he should avoid a show on fakenews channels as it lends them credibility.
