    This was your first post in this thread.

    Which was in response to @jiggyfly who cares comment.

    Maybe I have reading comprehension issues, but that doesn't repeat what I said.

    If you intended for me to go back and read the first post when you responded to me, that also does not nearly repeat what I said.

    Your first post indicated to me that you were concerned, that's all. Anyways my bad, you just care. I don't understand why your post was necessary, but this is a message forum so it isn't out of place just like it isn't out of place for me to ask you why you care since we are in the D&D.

    You asked was who cares? I replied "I care." That is all.

    But it's really not that hard of a concept. I'm speaking in generalities here. Broadly speaking and not specifically about Psaki, one of my reasons is I am a firm believer in the 1A, which includes freedom of the press. The press has been under attack and been called "the enemy of the state". So generally speaking, it's good to see members of the press continue to flourish. Are you disagreeing with the 1A? Not sure what's controversial here.

    What does any of this have to do with 1A?

    What does any of this have to do with freedom of the press?

    Who is not going to continue to flourish that you are so worried about?

    Where does any of this make you think i disagree with 1A?

    I agree with the bolded part, but for some reason you think Psaki possibly replacing Maddow means somehow freedom of the press is at stake.

    I didn't say I was concerned. Just responded that I care and I said I feel she'll be in an influential role. I also cited the 1A, as did you. I think we are saying the same thing.

    I never said freedom of the press is at stake. You said that. You are reading way too much into this.

    I'm with @jiggyfly on this. It's not something I'm concerned about. I'm not a Rachel Maddow fan so I'm not really bothered by her getting replaced by Psaki. I neither liked or disliked Psaki.

    It's always the trolls who have the thin skin.

    You have cited 1A in multiple post as well as freedom of the press and now you claim to have never said it was at stake.

    Your exact words.

    "it's really not that hard of a concept. I'm speaking in generalities here. Broadly speaking and not specifically about Psaki, one of my reasons is I am a firm believer in the 1A, which includes freedom of the press. The press has been under attack and been called "the enemy of the state". So generally speaking, it's good to see members of the press continue to flourish. Are you disagreeing with the 1A?"

    So I will ask once again what does this have to do with 1A or the freedom of the press?

    My words is "I support freedom of press".
    Your words that you attributed to me is "freedom of press is at stake".

    That, sir, is a textbook strawman argument.

    I like Ms. Psaki and look forward to her giving me another reason to watch MSNBC. She's smart and she's a redhead. Great combination!

    Ok.

    So I ask again what does this move have to do with freedom of the press?

    Or 1A since her going to MSNBC has you so worried about 1A or the freedom of the press.

    The world won't be worse with another smart woman having a forum to say what she thinks.

    Kind of have to be a B at this job or else the press will eat you alive. It's a tough job and I see why most don't last long. My ranking on the most recents -

    1. Kayleigh McEnany
    2. Jen Psaki
    3. Sarah Huckabee Sanders
    4. Sean Spicer

    That's what I thought and pretty sad statement on the forum. Let me the first, apparently, to ask the mod to remove the poll.

    The would question was I'm sure pretty tongue and cheek and nobody really took it there IMO it's a pretty good statement on the forum that nobody really went there and it sparked a different discussion.
