Exactly. The MSM may be fading but it is not going to go quietly. They viewed The Destruction of the House of Bush as a possible final hurrah.
I really don't know what you mean by that statement, but if you are talking about the old media viewing the past elections as a last hurrah for the old media, you are most likely stone wrong.
Just because the numbers are going down on newspaper subscriptions and the old media nightly newscasts means absolutely nothing with respect to the changes in the people's perspectives on politics.
Just think of it this way............ instead of all those people getting their news from the old morning newspapers or the old nightly newscasts.......... now they are getting their lame "news" needs from Leno, Letterman, Stewart, and the rest of the lefties.
Please understand, (and I could not understand what you meant with that post) the old media is still winning big ......... and they will win the next time around -- because the populace is getting dumber by the day, and our conservative talkshow hosts like Rush and Vannity are a relative turnoff to most decent people. The continual ridicule, name calling, and sanctimony of Rush and Sean doesn't work anymore. They must improve too, but they will not.
Rush will continue to talk about big "bums" on African women, sex with horses, cigars, golf outings with rich folks, and the rape of lambs.
Forget about the old media going away any time soon. Our talkshow hosts, for the most part are not helping. They often are much of the problem. I wish that they weren't.
I say replace Rush Limbaugh with Mark Steyn. The world would be a much better place!
