So what’s wrong with the other half?

That is not true. Media finds an unnamed source who makes up the story and then they report it.

They must have plausible deniability.

According to a poll conducted by Politico and Morning Consult, nearly half of American voters distrust the media’s reporting on President Trump and his administration. Not only that, but they know that believe journalists deliberately fabricate stories about Trump.

More surprising, it’s not just Republicans or Trump supporters who believe this.

..... and the poll conductor, Politico, is one of the very worst offenders.

Fox showed a PBS/NPR poll that indicated 70% distrusted MSM.

It’s not that they BELIEVE it, it’s that they see it happening. What’s amazing is that half the population doesn’t see it.

Hell - we have a few here that seem to want to believe all the crap the LSM puts out - professional shark-jumping concern trolls who have to have a single target because it’s so much easier to vent their frustrations that way.

Unlike many rinos before him, Trump knows that the globalist press will never support him or praise him. Trump also knows that the press and their allied Leftist institutions do not have credibility and broad support anymore.

This essentially gives Trump license to do what he wants because the press will predictably react negatively to him no matter what. Moreover, as the coverage gets more negative, it also appears to become less credible and more biased to a substantial segment of the population.

The upshot is that Trump supporters have essentially tuned out the globalist press. A positive feedback loop against the globalist press is now solidly in place.
