It seems like President-elect Donald J. Trump and his team are taking a strong stance against unfriendly media coverage. Lately, they've been sending legal warnings to news outlets that have questioned or criticized them. These threats have popped up in different ways - on TV, over the phone, or in letters and emails. It's like they're trying to scare journalists and others who dare to say something bad about them.

Even before Trump moves back into the White House, his team is already discussing some tough measures. They've talked about making news organizations hand over their records, prosecuting journalists and their sources, or even taking away networks' licenses to broadcast. Now, they're also adding another tool to their box: libel lawsuits. Some of these lawsuits have already started, showing that the Trump administration means business when it comes to dealing with bad press.

It's important to remember that every president faces criticism, but not all react the same way. Trump's approach seems pretty unique. Some people worry that all these threats could make the media less willing to ask tough questions or dig deep into important stories. After all, no one wants to deal with the hassle of a legal battle. On the other hand, some say that the media just needs to be more careful and responsible with their reporting. It's a tricky situation, and it'll be interesting to see how it all plays out.
