He is not the first person in the media to admit that the Trump monster is one of their own creation. He is a creation of the media and pop culture creating their perfect right wing foil for ratings.

...The New Day co-host went on to recall that "We've juiced him to get into this race because we thought it would be exciting, he was given a pass on a lot of the stuff that came out of his mouth early on," before sarcastically adding, "and now he's a victim of the press."...

Flashback- Les Moonves admitted they propped Trump up because he was good for ratings.

Yep, this so-called outsider candidate really is a big-media and entertainment industry candidate.

Aside from the media's morbid entertainment value of this debacle, is the more serious intent of getting Hitlerly elected.

Media manipulation gone amok.

I don't blame the media.  They are driven by ratings and money.  This includes Breitbart, Drudge and Limbaugh.  I blame the fools in the Republican Party who fell for it.

When this is over we will all know which conservative media have integrity and which do not.

As for the liberal media, they are ecstatic.  All they have to do is broadcast every word out of Trump's mouth to garner audience.  NPR is having a field day with his rallies.  They don't even make editorial comments.  They simply report the more provocative things he said, knowing it will massively drive leftist turnout.

I blame the public in general. Society has become one that falls for flashy slogans and feel good phrases and has lost much of its sense of judgement and discernment. They'll buy into anyone promising hope and change.
