In some cases, he matches blunder-for-blunder the press corps sins that he's cataloging, mirroring precisely the things he likes least about the press. He cherry picks facts to fit his theories about how the press cherry picks facts to fit their theories. He is relentlessly negative about a press corps he claims is relentlessly negative.
