Interesting ...

Not good for the Dems, I’m thinking. Too many chances to escape the gatekeepers.

See. You guys think i’m crazy (and you’re right, but hat’s besides the point) but I hit twitter HARD every day.

Colin from San Fransisco? Bam!!

BLM? Bam!!

Don Cheadle? Bam!!

Cnn, abc, cBS, nbc? Bam! Bam! Bam!

Hit them back hard and fast.

There are a number of breitbart folk on twitter, one being Adelle Nazarian, who is a great reporter.

I send her left wing news to refute because she has a following and the ear of Breitbart.

I GET my ammo from FR and use it on Twitter.

No youth vote, no victory for hillary!!

BTW, I told BLM they were a terrorist organization and they weren’t happy.

Told a Clinton foreign policy consultant to go #### himself after he told Adelle to go ### herself!!! Told a Lady to! Creep.

The responses i got were not nice, so if I disappear, I dont know, search the usual Clinton dumping spots. :)

Why get ‘news’ from the MSM when you know they’re in the tank for one party?

The news no longer controls the news. They're no longer the only game in town.

I'm pretty confident few capable of critical thought need Fox or CNN to tell them what's happening with this loser leadership/Clinton. The Internet provides a million times more data/information real fast.

The networks are fast becoming the realm for the easily led, the ignorant and technology challenged elderly.

It’s bad because it is based on biased “trending” formulas, personal bias of those in charge, and most importantly content by users on facebook is suppressed, your friends don’t see all of your posts in their feed - even if you “opt in” you’ll only see all of the posts from about a dozen people you are interacting with).

That doesn’t even touch upon the posts/accounts that are deleted or suspended because the libs don’t want dissent. Violation of standard? It is a questionable unit of measure that they use.

Social media becoming the norm when it comes to getting election news

And isn't that a shame.

Social media had to happen. But that doesn't mean it's a good thing.

But in this year’s presidential election, social media is playing a larger role than in past elections.

And Zuckerberg had to admit they manipulate all of it.
