More broadly, one network executive told features writer Charlotte Klein, "It's going to change everything" if Trump wins. The exec said it could signify the complete failure of the news industry.

"If half the country has decided that Trump is qualified to be president, that means they're not reading any of this media, and we’ve lost this audience completely. A Trump victory means mainstream media is dead in its current form," they said.

I distinctly remember getting out of bed one morning before the COVID pandemic and hearing a voice in my head (I believe it was God speaking) saying I will never believe anything I hear or read in the media or from the government without independent verification.

I’ve lived by that ever since.

She was upset Trump disagreed with the media’s version of the facts. The exact quote is “Mika Brzezinski: “He could have undermined the messaging so much, that he can actually control exactly what people think and that is our job.”
Morning Joe Scarborough: “Yeah.”

A Trump victory means mainstream media is dead in its current form,” they said.

***********************************************************

Back in 2015, shortly after coming down the escalator, TRUMP called FAKE NEWS MAIN STREAM MEDIA out.

It’s now 9 years later and MSM aka “Fake News” is dead and TRUMP alone deserves all the credit.

What they really mean is that government propaganda is dead.

No more cocktail parties or smoozing with the rich and powerful for you.

Maybe you can regain a soul, or once you sell it to the highest bidder, maybe you can’t.

I wonder how much money networks lose on news?

I'll be quite happy to see most of them gone if that ever happens.

They might try cutting costs by just reporting the news morning and evening then just report the news instead of editorializing every article and yaking it up with opinion shows. Nah. That would never work.

Ted Turner started all this crap.

“This person is admitting in plain view that the news media is a propaganda outlet for the RATs and deep state. “

that’s exactly what this media “executive” was admitting: basically he said that despite ALL of the media’s concerted efforts to nuke Trump, if Trump won, it meant no one was believing their lies anymore ...
