The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat.

It is not insanity.
It is the elevation of their gospel truth, Socialism/Liberalism, over objective truth, reality.
The watch dogs became lap dogs of the liberal elite, seeing it as their guard to protect the ideology versus holding liberal rulers to account or tell the truth about events.

I have no interest in or sympathy for the press but they seem to be following the Big 3 Automakers survival plan: when technology and informed consumers with alternatives threaten sales (ie ratings) they choose to become government bootlickers.

Except for a few preposterous token ‘Hillary is really interesting and funny’ claims made through gritted teeth, nobody in the media could stand her either. A mannequin who was the Dem nominee would get equally fawning coverage.

The constant sucking up to government is meant to preserve their lifeline of bundled cable/satellite packages, without which most channels’ ad budgets would vanish. It’s also meant to keep government from enforcing antitrust regulations as broadcasters, internet providers, satellite providers and mobile data carriers continue their headlong rush towards an appalling monopoly that makes Ma Bell look like Mother Goose.

As individuals, media types are craven, self-serving lefties desirous of nothing more than name/face recognition. But they still know that the only way to make a buck under statism is to link arms with the state.

The problem is their bias results in acts of commission and omission.
Commission: all negative against Trump, all the time.
Omission: Ignoring, or downplaying Clinton scandals and indications of bad health.

There was 18 months of this, non-stop. People got fed up.

The media fails to realize that those millions of deplorables in now bright red fly over country that they loath buy the products from their advertisers. These millions are not going to watch their networks, listen to their radio stations, or buy their newspapers and certainly not going to be swayed to buy the products of their advertisers. Watch as these liberal propaganda machines go bankrupt.

Wolf Blitzer must be in shock... He was referring to Trump on Thursday and said “When and ‘if’ Trump takes office on January 20th”. The man is obviously delusional at this point. Does he think they’re going to recount the votes, or Trump is going to resign??? Maybe he thinks there’ll be a coup of some sort.

It was sickening but expected
I get most of the news from the new Russian pravda known as RT as they are more honest.
