PBS, Stelter, NYT Agree About Trump’s Kremlin-Style ‘Chilling Effect’ on AP

Tuesday’s PBS News Hour featured guest Brian Stelter, editor of CNN’s Reliable Sources newsletter (and reliable white knight for the mainstream media) to discuss the “chilling effect” of the Trump Administration blocking the Associated Press from the White House pool of reporters.

After warning of "a chilling moment when it comes to First Amendment freedoms," and a few sentences later, "there's concerns about a chilling effect here," Stelter borrowed a hysterical Soviet-era metaphor from New York Times White House reporter Peter Baker.
