Unfortunately, I most likely will be proven correct.
A common theme here of FR for many years is the celebration of the MSM death. That's being a bit premature, IMHO.
While the MSM no longer holds total monopoly power on the flow of news, they still set the agenda and have a great deal of influence with the low information voters. The small talk around the water cooler, locker rooms, airport lobbies, etc. is still what they want the conversation to be.
Imagine what life would be like if the MSM were fair and unbiased? Why, Bill and Hillary would be doing time in Leavenworth. Instead, they're two of the most admired people in America.
