Trump has taken control of the narrative from the media.
Exactly.
I expect to see more in the future. Rush has made the same observations.
What Trump has shown is that the factions in the Media can be turned against each other, to the advantage of everyone else. It is Machiavellian and powerful.
The media has maintained control by unity of ideology. But unity of ideology does not work if there is a significant alternate way to communicate and if there is no command structure at the top to unify the defenses.
The old media control is crumbling for lack of a unified command.
This is a most fortunate situation.
CNN put on their best night of political analysis in a decade. They brought out all their heavyweights.
A saying in one way or another, directly and indirectly, Trump had a big win tonight and has completely upset the stranglehold Fox has on Republicans.
They were giddy.
What they don't realize is that the same trends in communication and society will do the same to them vs Democrats one day.
Everywhere but Fox there is universal agreement that elections have changed forever. Fox is still trying to figure out what happened.
