Interdasting.
We all loathe the media.
Many of us here talk about unsubscribing hardcopy news, turning off TV, unplugging cable.
We mock and repudiate the Legacy Media.
We call the neo-digital media (CNN, MSDNC) “fake news”.
We can’t wait for a real conservative outlet that compliments the financially struggling digital outlets (OANN+).
But we are STILL shackled to the Legacy Media for IRT election results.
Why is that?
Why is that still accepted practice?
Does OANN have direct and immediate results?
No, they have to wait for Legacy Media to give it to them.
Who, then, is REALLY counting the votes?
No wonder they view themselves as a Constitutionally protected branch of the government.

See, it doesn’t matter to CNN if anyone complains.
When it comes to elections, we blindly trust [them] to report accurately.
When we have -all along- called them fake news.
Which is it, patriots?
Seems like THEY ARE the news.
Right?

Nowadays, MSM, OANN, and everyone else can get direct results as they are posted by county and/or state election boards. I am always flitting between county, state, and various news sites on election night watching which regions have reported, which seem to be holding back, and comparing reporting to see if its really up to date.

My county in 2018 reported updates about every 20 minutes through the night. Where districts cross county lines is where it’s most difficult to keep track.
