This new reality will be missed by the media (and libs in general) as it requires far too much work. They're only able to concentrate on the occupant of the White House.

They cannot be bothered to report on the doings of 535 members of congress (except the occasional smear against a Republican) let alone 50 state legislatures?

They will go back to fixating on the Administration like it's the only game in town.

The largest newspapers in New Jersey fired all of their seasoned Statehouse writers and editors in the last 2 years. They now have green behind the ears 20-somethings going around trying to cover the Statehouse politics.

The resulting reporting has gotten so bad that the Republicans, environmentalist lobbyists, education lobbyists and politically powerful people in general openly refuse to communicate with the state’s largest newspapers since the reporters don’t know the most basic knowledge of the bills, laws, rules, judgments etc they are supposedly covering.

It has been comically bad, however it has created an explosion of online news sources and propaganda and agitation outlets, returning to the roots of the news media in this state.
