It’s a good thing he stopped before he got to me.
There are reasons I live alone. Bwwhaaahahehsewha!
This article seems weirdly schizophrenic.
As I read it, I think the guy finds out that all of his Liberal presumptions are wrong. Christians are not bad. Gun owners are not angry. Republicans are not racists. People in the heartland want to do good and help people.
And his conclusion is that Trump is wrong to attack the media, and it is too bad that so few people respect the media, because the media is so important to having a united country.
What?
BFL
Yeah.
Because the various tea party movement factions all get together and have reunion meetings. Probably at the Napa auto parts store.
Was Jason Blair in the same class with you Ken?
The disconnect between the media gatekeepers and the non-urban public is startling, and the same is true of their chosen vessel, the Democrat party. When a guy ankle-deep in mud, fixing his tractor in rural Montana, can look at a billionaire New York real estate developer and vote him because "he's more like me", and be right, you have an idea of the magnitude of the disconnect.
It's an alternate reality inside the liberal bubble, and the worshipers and shapers of The Narrative are so invested in it that lack of congruence to the real world no longer matters to them; in fact, anyone who clears his throat and points out uncomfortable dissimilarities immediately becomes a class enemy to be crushed. That's pathologically self-destructive and used to be a fair working definition of insanity. It's a shared and comfortable delusion to be sure, but it's still nuts.
Alternative headline: smug elitist and leftist man-child wanders outside of the bubble and sees the real world.
For those who want to watch the beautiful shooting noted in the article (where the store worker didn’t even bother to put down his square while plugging Obama’s son).

Regarding he story, the author is off regarding one thing: The MSM reporters are MORE THAN willing to go into the sticks when it suits their (i.e., Democrat) agenda. Lots of examples likely, but here are two that immediately come to mind -
1) The “Farm Crisis” when they could claim Reagan/Bush were ignoring Americas family farms.
2) Cindy Sheehan - When they stayed with her in Texas while she was bashing Bush Jr., but then, starting in 2009, claimed that Texas wasn’t part of the United States and that she wasn’t a news story.
None of this justifies the attacks from President Trump, which are terribly inappropriate coming from the head of government.
That said, it’s a pretty good piece and his basic point — that the media is failing the country because of its liberal bias — is correct.
Great article, but he still thinks the MSM only seems to have bias because they don’t “get around” conservatives.
Still, this was a good read.
Bkmrk.
But as you point out sir, you are not an independent press but bought and paid for advocates of only one side of the debate.
You report nothing without running it through the DNC talking points filter and if it does not promote your point of view you squash it like a bug.
This is an amazing article. So glad that a media titan of his stature made the leap into reality and fact-finding.
