When will Big Media begin to cover the gleeful winners?
Myself | 11/12/16 | Libloather

Posted on 11/12/2016 11:01:49 AM PST by Libloather

Fireworks! Champagne! Parties with American flags and everything! Oh, my - we WON! The entire country turned down a career criminal running for the highest office in the land! No one saw it coming (well, with all of those amazingly bloated polls, I kinda did) but we pulled it off! Historic! Whoo hoo!

When does the coverage start?

On election night, I was listening to conservative radio. For entertainment today, I started watching a rerun of ABC’s election coverage. (Indulging in a little schadenfreude.) So far, I’m only an hour or so in and they are all confident that Hitlery will win and they are giving sanctimonious speeches about how we have to accept the results of the election and all support the result. I’m sure there are hundreds of liberals on record with such speeches because they were all sure the fix was in for Hitlery. Those speeches need to be replayed for them over and over. Maybe along with a dose of 0vomit’s “I won” and “Elections have consequences” speeches.

I’d also like to see the inauguration be clean and orderly, like all of the TEA party protests have been. If you saw any pictures of the aftermath of the 0vomit inauguration, it looked like a giant trash heap (from the party that supposedly cares about the environment).

>>I just wish a Conservative billionaire would start a conservative search engine. I am baffled why the leftists always start up these companies and the right wing never does.

idk,
Possibly because liberals get all kinds of money (from government, from other liberal sources) to prop them up and keep them going while conservatives have to do it on their own dime?

"When does the coverage start?"

Actually, I've scarcely even focused on this question, but it's a good one. Normally, in the aftermath of an election, most of the media focus is on the elation of the WINNERS. This time, however, since the media are 95% on the loser's side, that is where virtually all of the focus has been: sympathizing with the losers.

I agree that is a huge impediment but there is no reason several conservative billionaire businessmen can’t get together and create and run a freaking conservative option to Google that is just as big and effective. Any losses would be no tax business write offs. In the end, it wouldn’t cost them anything or else they would profit off the advertising.

Point is, they NEVER do this. All the control comes from the left putting us at their mercy. Google can change their algorithms and all you get is liberal news.

Where are the conservative billionaires out their? Go buy Yahoo or something and just re-write the algorithms to be conservative. You are telling me they don’t have the disposable money.

The Waltons have more money than God.

The Koch brothers have more than enough money for this, if they want to make a TRUE difference in the culture war.

There are many more who can afford to create a conservative alternative to Google and it would immediately become huge and profitable because half the nation is conservative and we would immediately use their search engine over night.

It would become the 500 pound gorilla overnight. Google and Bing would be picking up the scraps. Which is just another reason to do it — to reduce the power of Google.

If I were a Republican billionaire I would be beating on my colleagues to get this done with me.

Really?

Eight years ago, everyone got to witness the greatest thing since marble rye bread speaking in front of recycled Brittany Spears styrofoam columns. I expect nothing less.

If I were a conservative billionaire, I would already have done this!

Never. According to them, there aren’t any.

Exactly. The media is too busy apologizing right now for getting everything wrong to notice that there are huge swaths of the population who aren't traumatized and in counseling right now. Who are actually quite happy!

They still don't get it. I don't think they ever will.

I don’t know if this is conservative or not, but they do claim to be the worlds most PRIVATE search engine.

I love watching the part on all the networks when they come to the realization that Hillary no longer has a path to the presidency.

I can watch this stuff over and over again!

It reminds me of a line from the film when Andrews tells Ismay, "From this moment, no matter what we do, Titanic will founder..."
"But this ship can't sink!"
"She's made of iron, sir! I assure you, she can... and she will. It is a mathematical certainty."

This is pretty much what took place after Ohio and Florida were called for Trump.

So where are they? I don’t get why they let the commie left control all the information in America. Information is power. It is high time the rich conservatives began to exercise that power.

If it were not for Fox news channel, I would watch no news whatsoever. They ran Trumps speeches all the time and had pro Trump guests on all the time giving them a forum and free air time. Without Fox new channel, I don’t think Trump could have gotten his message out.

So where are the conservatives papers and search engines that conservative billionaires could found. Lets get going on this guys! Help out us little people.

The answer is never, and that’s fine. As conservatives, we know we’re hated by the media. The question comes off like pro-Red Socks sportswriters asking after a World Series win, “Why can’t people just be happy for us?”
