The Trump administration basically decided to throw the First Amendment out the window.
The recent banning of CNN and The New York Times screams of an attempt to stifle the free press, step one to creating a dictatorship and destroying the nation we hold dear to our hearts.
I love The Tribune. I would hate to see it go by the wayside in favor of bias-controlled news or no news at all.
We cannot as a nation founded on the principles as stated in the Constitution allow this to happen.
