As the author alludes to, the greatest power of the MSM lies in the editor’s mind. The news the public never hears fom the MSM is more important and has greater impact than what the public does hear. No POTUS even Obama could survive the multiple stories like Benghazi, F&F, the EPA’s war on private property, the mess that is Obamacare,the unemployment and the overall economy and on and on. Compare the stories on Abu Gharib to Benghazi. The NYT ran it on the front page 70 days in a row. Limbaugh, Hannity, Ingraham, Levin, all pale when compared to the editorial decisions for the evening network news.
Which, as we now know, are driven by what the New York Times will put on Page 1 tomorrow.
