What I am trying to say, though I am doing a poor job of it, is that the media being what they are (communists) and doing what they do (coordinated propaganda) is a big reason we can only have Republicans in public office. I would rather have themedia watching the government like a hawk while making mindless accusations and calling people racist than have them covering up government wrong doings and forcing the party line down our throats.
Your point is well taken and undeniable."The Democratic Party” and “the MSM” is (not are, is) a single entity. Our constitutional system is dysfunctional at present because of hypertrophied “faction” (partisanship). The very thing that the Framers feared.
My point is that
- for business reasons journalism is negative toward American society. Just because bad news sells.
- the wire services homogenize journalism. Whereas newspapers used to be fractiously independent, they now consist of (slightly) various spins on the same input.
- the wire services exacerbate the natural tendency of journalism to claim objectivity. the claim of objectivity is self-negating because you can’t even try to be objective without being candid about why you might not be objective.
- anyone, including journalists, who is negative and calls that negativity “objective” is a cynic.
- There is no reason to assume that both political parties would be independent of the cynical borg which is wire service journalism. And plenty of reasons why at least one party might be absorbed by the borg - leaving only the name, “Democratic Party” to distinguish it from the borg. Just like all the major newspapers still exist as fronts for the borg.
