I never said stop reporting, I said stop acting surprised. I don’t want them to stop talking about it, I just want them to be honest about it and say “Trump lied about this today” instead of “the Trump white house thinks…”
I just want them to call a spade a spade instead of acting like it’s not
Ah, I misinterpreted your phrasing. “We have to stop reporting on Trump lies like they’re shocking” sounded like “nobody is shocked by his lies, so there’s no point in bothering to report on it.” You meant “stop feigning surprise in your reporting of his lies.” I fully agree with you.

Yes, that is exactly what I meant. Cheers
