Angeles times, the New York Times and the miami harold. Allow me to start our discussion tonight with a simple proposition that in a democracy such as ours if freedom of the press is jeopardized then democracy itself is jeopardized since one is intimately linked to the other. During the president ial campaign of 2016 donald trump routinely criticized the press humiliating a number of reporters, bullying others, challenging the very concept of freedom of the press as written into the First Amendment of the u. S. Constitution. If he won it would inevitably change. That is the way it has always been. He won and it has not changed. It has gotten much worse even on occasion frightening. I use that word deliberately. The word of a president is much more consequential than the word of a candidate. I know other president s have had their quarrels with the media but donald trump crossed a bright line when he accused reporters of being the enemies of the American People forgetting it was a favor
State police and police are on the bridge. Weve had two different dive teams show up. One officer told me theyre erring on the side of caution. They dont know whether a baby was in the stroller. It bears repeating there. We have video of a rescue boat. It is a 20foot drop from the bridge to the water. The witness, the woman wasnt able to give a good description of the person who allegedly tossed the stroller. Back live now. Police are still out here, you see some of them are gathered there on the deck of the bridge shiepi shining lights to the water. They continue to monitor the situation. So far we havent seen any activity, if we do see any sign of a stroller or heaven forbid any sign of a child, well bring it to you live. Keith jones, nbc 10 news. Storms bring lightning, heavy rain and strong winds to our area and this Lightning Strike was caught by a driver on the p. A. Turnpike tonight and look at the wind and rain blowing through conshohocken montgomery county. They were the worse
