When President Trump’s presidency is over, one of the biggest pieces of fake news we will look back on is when we were told by the media that Trump was good for the media business. The truth is that business for the media is horrible.
The Denver Post announced that between April 9 and July 1, 30 jobs will be cut from its newsroom--a massive 30 percent cut of its current staff of 100 journalists. Just 10 years ago the Denver Post employed 600 journalists--close to a 90 percent reduction in only a decade.
Layoffs hit the Chicago Tribune. Fourteen newsroom staffers were let go in a second round of layoffs in less than six months as the newspaper prepares to leave Tribune Tower for smaller space at Prudential Plaza.
The San Jose Mercury News was hit with another round of terminations, as many as 27 staffers were either laid off or bought out.
The East Bay Times wiped out a quarter of its editorial staff through layoffs and buy outs — a total of 28 staffers.
We also learned in January that a total of five publications owned by Southern California News Group will face “significant layoffs.”
To protect Barack Obama’s anemic economic “recovery,” our media tried to convince us that unemployment in the Obama era, was really “funemployment.” When the working class, those our elitist media despise, lose their jobs to illegal immigrants, unfair trade deals, and oppressive and unnecessary environmental regulations, the media have dismissively suggested that they all catch up with the times and learn computer code.
So let me be the first to wish all of these “journalists” a Happy Funemployment and wish them luck all the luck in the world with their new careers as computer coders.

Maybe they’ll get a more sophisticated challenging position like at MacDonald’s or Burger King.

“In many ways, the American news media is the propaganda arm of the Democrat Political Party.”
It used to be the propaganda arm of the CPUSSR, and continues to carry water for them even after their (apparent) demise.
While I do not want to see anyone lose their jobs, it’s hard to have sympathy for a newspaper that has its head so far up the Obamaholes of local Denver politicians that they need supplemental O2 to stay alive.
May the Denver Post suffer a complete, total, and irrevarsable death.
Maybe the survivors can start a paper that does something other than finding Buffy the Dog a new forever home (as a local talk show host is often saying). Oh, they can do that as soon as they disinfect themselves from all that ...stuff...that presently coats them.
Oops, that’s “irreversible”. I had a Pelosi moment.
Who wants to spend their time or money listening to people rant and lie to you.
Buh Bye Lie-berals
Those who are stupid enough to follow its lead, will also commit suicide, figuratively, culturally, morally, and spiritually, and perhaps literally.
“”””I agree, and Fox cut its own throat. Now they’ve signed mascara boy to a new contract. I stopped watching quite a few years ago.”””””””””
I stopped watching when they went 24/7 for a year with Scott Peterson/Natalie Holloway.
The Charlotte Observer, Rock Hill Herald, and The State are abysmal and the day when they are razed to the ground will be great.

That’s when I swore to never watch Greta again and I stuck to it.
Kim Dotcom is apparently about to open a competitor to Twitter.
Probably more than a year off.
This news is just breaking my heart!
Ummmmmm....no.
Top 10 ratings for 2017, Trump's first year.
RATINGS
The Top Cable News Programs of 2017 Are…
By A.J. Katz on Dec. 29, 2017 - 10:15 AMComment
With Bill O’Reilly and Megyn Kelly out of the picture, the year-end cable news program rankings look a bit different this year.
When ranking cable news programming by total viewers, and by adults 25-54, Fox News tops the year-end charts once again.
MSNBC and CNN have more of a presence at/towards the top of the A18-49 rankings.
As you may have guessed, Fox News is led by Sean Hannity this year. After 57 telecasts in the 9 p.m. hour this year, (the rest were at 10 p.m.), Hannity became 2017’s most-watched cable news program.
Here’s a look at the Top 10 for 2017 in terms of total audience. The numbers include Nielsen data through December 22, 2017, and as always, it’s in Nielsen live+same-day format.
TOTAL VIEWERS (Live+SD data)
Hannity (3,175,000) / 57 telecasts
Tucker Carlson Tonight (2,755,000) / 175 telecasts
The Five ( 2,687,000) / 146 telecasts
The Rachel Maddow Show (2,548,000) / 245 telecasts
The Ingraham Angle (2,509,000) / 36 telecasts
Special Report with Bret Baier (2,444,000) / 277 telecasts
The Story with Martha MacCallum (2,083,000) / 167 telecasts
Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell (2,078,000) / 245 telecasts
America’s Newsroom (1,879,000) / 529 telecasts
Outnumbered (1,787,000) / 257 telecasts

The media is going the way of the NFL, best news I’ve heard in years. I hope they all wind up working at Pizza Hut with the ex-footballers.
Gee, that’s too bad.
Most of the establishment media are made up of 60s and 70s Left-wing your world make it a better place hippies who cut their hair and tried to act normal. They figured that if they take over the media, public schools they could advance their agenda faster.
Much like every other central planning idea has failed, they never saw this inter-webs invention coming. :-)
They keep trying to give away my local paper in the supermarket - promotion stand inside the front entrance, they offer you a free paper and then try to sign you up for delivery. I take the paper and say, Thanks I’ll think about it.
Yep. Soon I'm going to be like Forrest Gump's friend Bubba, but instead of shrimp, I'll be naming all the different ways to make popcorn.
By then I'm going to be seriously tired of popcorn, but I still won't be tired of winning!
hahahaha
Besides the bias, the poorly written stories and the left wing editorials, a big factor is the rising cost. Our local rag is $2 daily, $3 Saturday and Sunday. Subscription rates aren’t much lower.
When I was a paper boy (before the Flood), dailies were $.05 and Sundays were $.25. Also they were better written with cogent editorials. Monthly subscription were $1.60. Even if we allow for 1000% inflation in the last 60 years, today’s newspapers are still a rip-off for a 3rd rate product.
