>>academic Thomas B. Edsall blaming the Internet for the collapse of establishment authority.
I wonder if he even took the “Question Authority” sticker off his Prius before writing this?
A way for the power to be taken from the establishment and given to the people was the dream of Leftists since the late 1960s. Now they have it and discover to their dismay that the people don’t agree with THEM and we are taking our power elsewhere.

Basically Trump is going right past the media to get his message out. Like today’s story of Obama wire tapping Trump Towers. The media hates it. Hahahahaha

Edsall openly concedes that he believes the freedom unleashed by the Internet to be a threat to the establishment; to its norms and language codesDoes "language codes" refer to the MSM power to refer to things exactly as they want? Case in point: They are "pro-choice" but we are "anti-abortion." They do not use the term "pro-life." Oh how I laugh when I think that the left invented the term FAKEnews themselves, not even realizing that it meant themselves.

The media has lost most of their power.... and they know it!
They threw everything they had at Trump and then some, yet he was still elected President.

So the establishment class determines? And just who is the establishment class and who designates who’s in it?

I think they have the establishment class confused with the establishment clause.

“Democracy” means rule by the people. In the author’s mind, only the ruling class are the people.

The freedom of expression in the corner of Hyde Park does pretty much the same thing without the internet.
