:hi5: and QFT!
Journalists have been calling Trump Hitler, Nazi, and Fascist for a decade. Journalists have been lying about and misrepresenting things Trump said and did for a decade. Journalists have been sneering at Trump for a decade. In the context of that decade of "journalists' lies and contempt, the context of Trump's first term and "journalists' lies and contempt, and the context of Trump's current term and "journalists' lies and contempt, how exactly does ANY "journalist" deserve even minimal respect from Trump?

NOTHING. Absolutely nothing other than the left calling the journalist racist names.

Not quite apples to apples admittedly, but I think there's enough there to give us a pretty good idea.

If I had to choose between being called "Piggy" or this (from the Variety article):
Obama, who campaigned on a promise to protect government whistle-blowers, made greater use of the Espionage Act to prosecute leakers and menace journalists than all other presidents combined.
Obama’s Justice Department accessed the personal email of a Fox News reporter and surveilled the reporter’s parents and colleagues. They seized the home, work and mobile phone records of journalists at the Associated Press.
I'd gladly say "Oink!" in reply.

I looked at pics of her and she doesn't look obese. Maybe she was wearing pink and Trump just said the first insult that came to mind.

Calling most people in the White House Press Pool is being generous. Most of them couldn't begin to hold a candle to those from long ago who knew how to not only write a story but keep their personal BS out of it.
