Donald Trump orders NBC’s Katy Tur to ‘be quiet’; Washington Post, 7/27/16

Callum Borchers, Washington Post; Donald Trump orders NBC’s Katy Tur to ‘be quiet’ :

"There is so much going on here. There is Trump's previously noted attempt to take the conversation in a different direction. There is his effort to bully a journalist into silence. And there is his suggestion that the journalist is in the tank for Clinton.

What a perfect encapsulation of how Trump interacts with the press. Here are his three primary tactics on display all at once. He ignores topics he doesn't like, tries to shut down reporters bold enough to push back — usually with an "excuse me"; "be quiet" was even ruder than usual — and suggests that the media is conspiring against him.

If you had paid zero attention to the presidential race before Wednesday, this single episode would tell you everything you need to know about Donald Trump's media relations."
