This msm that we keep claiming is dying seems to still have a lot of power. They define the narrative that most people who don’t pay a lot of attention see every day and don’t question.

Exactly, we have ignored the MSM to our peril, the few media outlets that do seem to lean conservative are choc a bloc full of Moderates and Social liberals.

Sad but true. I find myself in MSM de-programming mode among friends and family all too often.

The mainstream media only has power because of the apathy and ignorance of the unthinking citizens. They will eventually ( in a century or so ) get the government they so richly deserve. The founding fathers knew that democracies have a very short lifetime and the political class is doing it’s best to turn America into a democracy. Soon, ( sooner if Hillary is elected ) we will all be faced with an ever increasing tax burden as politicians try to buy even more votes with an ever increasing list of entitlement programs and our list of freedoms will shrink as we are forbidden from speaking out against the “common good” GOD BLESS JOSEPH STALIN ! ! !
