But the point is that the media has ceased their primary objective of destroying Republicans when it comes to Trump. And instead they're propping him up. And the reason they are doing it is the media landscape is changing so fast.
It's becoming so compartmentalized, it's becoming so niche that attracting massive, big audiences anymore is not possible because there's just too much competition. There are too many places people can go for news, their Facebook feed for many people is their primary news source, for example. But you can now stream whatever you want on your phone or your iPad.
What if, just as a little hypothetical game here, what if the media continues covering Trump the way they are now, if he's the nominee, what if they don't ever revert to the normal position of destroying the Republican nominee? Because they can't, because they don't want to, because they're newly relevant again, their networks are earning money again. Their networks and their shows have audience again.
Trump has become so important, this explains while they'll let him phone in a Sunday show where everybody else has to show up on camera. But Trump can phone in. Whatever Trump wants, Trump gets, whenever Trump wants it, Trump gets. And Campbell Brown's fear is that when the general election finally comes, this isn't gonna change because they like too much this Trump phenomenon, they're benefiting from it way too much.
But they will not want Trump harmed, they will not want Trump destroyed, because, in doing so, they will essentially end the halcyon days that they are experiencing now.

RUsh may Have a good point here
If this Happens Hillary my really be toast

What planet am I on?
Rush was through the looking glass on Friday.. It was stunning..
Using the recent Boehner remarks, Rush literally claimed
- Trump has had the full support of the media
= Trump has had the full support of the GOP
= No one has faced more attacks and an uphill battle than Cruz
It went on and on.. I kept listening waiting for the joke.. it never came...
Rush has become quite the Cruzlim ayatollah.
Possibly is Jealous of Trump, he is stealing Rush’s niche.
Trump is the 800 lb gorilla on the stage and everybody knows it.
Haha.. are you serious? I have listened to Rush’s point of view recently, which has been pro-cruz to some extent... But, he has never fallen off the reality wagon so much that he is claiming that the media is pro-Trump... God have mercy on his soul....
Rush now apparently broadcasts his show from a parallel universe.
I believe that Trump has bragged about his use of the media...has he not?
Rush totally lost. With 50000 negative ads against him in a couple of months, Trump is the favourite of the media?
I heard Rush use that phrase to describe Ted, I about choked on my tea.
Rush is all in, full throated butt kisser.
Rush is funny and there is some truth in his words.
It was stunning..
What planet am I on?
Sounds like they better check Rush’s desk for Oxycontin.
THIRTY ONE SECONDS!!!
LOL - GMTA! ;)
