This week on CounterSpin: Talking to reporters on Air Force One last month, Donald Trump said: “Dakota Access takes it to the Pacific. Who do they compete with? Russia.” Every word of that is nonsense; or, as Politico graciously put it, “It was not immediately clear what Trump meant”—given that the Dakota Access pipeline goes nowhere near the Pacific, and oil is an international market. But while Trump is wrong out loud, corporate media are tacitly wrong in their evident belief—if coverage is guide—that the fight over the pipeline is over. We’ll get an update on a struggle that’s very much alive from Kandi Mossett, organizer with the Indigenous Environmental Network.

Also on the show: The fact that Sinclair Broadcasting Group‘s bid to take over Tribune Media would create a behemoth with control of TV stations reaching 72 percent of the country’s TV households might be the preeminent reason to oppose the deal, but it isn’t the only one. We’ll talk through the problems with Craig Aaron, president and CEO of Free Press.
