Why Trump is denouncing the media’s Iran war coverage as too negative – boosted by rhetorical FCC backing
The U.S. military has devastated Iran and all but destroyed its military effectiveness. Period. Full stop.

There's no question that journalistic credibility has plummeted in the Trump era, and the president has used lawsuits and other tactics to pressure news organizations.
