This is how media criticism of Trump will be silenced. The threat of lawsuits media companies cannot afford.

Press freedom in america is taking a major blow.

    We have acknowledged that the Selzer/Des Moines Register pre-election poll did not reflect the ultimate margin of President Trump’s Election Day victory in Iowa by releasing the poll’s full demographics, crosstabs, weighted and unweighted data, as well as a technical explanation from pollster Ann Selzer. We stand by our reporting on the matter and believe a lawsuit would be without merit.

    They better stand by this. It only takes another news org or two to cave without pushing back with pressure before they can effectively silence anyone by threat alone.
