POLL QUESTION: Should GOP change how it deals with the mainstream media?

When it comes to politics, the right is right. But when it comes to the news and media, two wrongs don't make a right.

You may have seen something shocking on your tv over the weekend. That would be Republicans appearing on the mainstream media news shows.

"Is the GOP embracing the media again or are the media finally regaining some version of what they used to call their objectivity" said Elizabeth Ames, a FOX News contributor, "Are we getting the old media back, where they did lean to the left, but at least they were a little more polite about it? That's what I think is happening."

But while it is happening, some are wondering if Republicans are being hypocritical by appearing on the news, after years of labeling the left leaning networks as, 'fake news'?

"I don't think it's hypocritical because they have to reach everybody, they're practical" Ames told KTRH, "You have to get your message out , and you are going to assume that people are watching that are not as rabidly partisan as some of the pundits. I don't think it's hypocritical, I think it's a determined move."

It's definitely a move in the -right- direction, but we'll have to see if it continues, especially with the Democrats finally being held accountable in the current GOP House Committee hearings.
