By the legal definition of collusion one can say the Obama Administration is breaking the law through its actions working with other news networks to isolate and marginalize Fox News. By the legal definition, collusion occurs when two persons or representatives of an entity or organization make an agreement (Obama & News Networks) to gain an unfair advantage over a third party (Fox News).

Whether this is true in the literal legal sense it is truly scary that the administration of the United States of America is working with other organizations to attack and diminish another free enterprise in our country, not too mention what it says about government controlling the media, free speech and the promise of more transparency in government?

Now that the precedent has been set, this raises the question of whether the next republican president of the United States will choose to go after news organizations they don’t agree with (MSNBC)? Where will it stop?

Is this the beginning of the end of the free press in the United States?
