In an interview with Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow for Friday’s NBC Today, correspondent Stephanie Gosk worried that the conservative media figure did not think it was “dangerous” for the President to criticize the press: “President Trump calling the, quote, ‘fake news media,’ ‘the enemy of the American people.’ That kind of extreme language, is that not damaging to our democracy?”

Marlow responded: “I don't think it is, because I think, in a lot of ways, as Steve Bannon put it, the press is the opposition party. That's 100% the world view that I have.”
