>How much free advertising is Trump getting every day? I am guessing about $1,000,000 across all the media throughout the entire country including print and visual and audio media. In the next 90 days he will get $90 million in free ads.

The media’s going to try blacking him out at some point. He has to be ready for that.

I just do not see it.

Media will kill for ratings. There is always some media outlet that will interview Trump or talking about him. Then other outlet ratings go down and they have to cover Trump.

CNN ratings in prime time have exceeded Fox’ for the first time in 15 years and that is because of Trump. That is a big deal. Trump has unseated Fox. Now Megyn is on her knees wanting a sit down with Trump.

I see zero chance of a blackout!

The media isn't covering Trump because they like him, they're covering him because he sets the agenda.

No matter what shakes out, the media is first and foremost about the money. Any part of the media refusing to cover Trump would simply put themselves at a financial disadvantage. If one arm of the media stops covering Trump, another division rushes in to fill the void (and pockets) and the first bunch lose.

They can't help themselves.

Trump knows the game better than they do and he's four moves ahead of them at dawn every day.

It's great watching them fall apart on live T.V.

I thought they were already blacking Trump out whenever he disses Hillary (see other recent FR threads in which the TV stations cut the audio at those times)
