Let's see how it goes.  I remember Sean Hannity talking about Obama's failed presidency two months after he took office.  You and I should follow that lead, too, and give Donald Trump until March 21, 2017, before we evaluate his success.  I'm ok with that.

Looks like President-elect Trump will be at least some of the time bypassing the biased filter of the media and go directly to the American people with his administrations vision for our nation.

Umm, of course Trump and his administration wouldn't put their own biased filter on their communications to the country.

But forget about that for a second. Something that we need to really think about is how much Trump is going to try to build on the Bush and Obama administrations desire to control their message and control the press.

Think back to when GWB's press office started requiring the press to pre-submit questions and the administration would pick and choose what it would answer in front of the public.

Think back to the Obama administrationrefusing to let the White House photography pool have access to the presidentand instead granting favor to the White House's own photographers.

As a master of media manipulation, it will be interesting to see to what degree Trump takes away traditional media access and tries to either hand it off to alternate (i.e. Breitbart) type news agencies or tries to implement some sort of state sponsored media platform.
