We've all seen the slow parade of corporate media losses since the advent of the internet and outlets like Fox and Rush Limbaugh back in the day. It was only a matter of time before it reached critical mass.
The core problem with corporate media boils down to this:
"How the hell did Donald Trump figure out that the mainstream media is the fringe and the fringe is now the mainstream...The 78 year old guy who doesn't even have a computer and still, like, writes handwritten notes? How did he become the guy who cracked the code?" Cillizza asked.
This isn't any different than that little rich p***k kid in high school rubbing his new Porsche his daddy bought him in your face. Even the youngin's are getting tired of ever expanding tech intruding in our lives, not to mention all the COVID crap, inflation and general govt woke jackbootery.
All that has woken people up, grounded them a little, and made them question the line of bull corporate media has been feeding them. The last thing you want to hear is some elitist jackhole spouting their alternate reality when you can't put gas in your car.
And the media will never get that, and will never understand why Trump won, and that they are one of the things that people voted against.
