Kamala’s successful convention has broken the media’s brainboo fucking hoo, you sad losers

"SNIP............

the Democratic National Convention was a roaring success. Dems are riding high. they’re raising all the money. Kamala and Tim are rockstars right now. they’re crossing the country and speaking to ecstatic crowds in one packed arena after another.

meanwhile, the wheels are continuing to come off elderly golfer Donny Convict’s moribund campaign. his panicked advisors are begging him to be less of a crazypants and to try to stay on message. keep dreaming, Team Trump.

Donny’s running mate, Couchfuck McGee, is a repellent misogynist who can’t manage to fake one genuine human emotion. and now Bobby Brainworms Junior has thrown his support to Donny — and Couchfuck has to be eyeing Bobby nervously.

with all this going on, the worthless scribblers of the corporate-controlled media have an important message they want to share with the Dems: what are you doing, being happy? don’t you realize how fucked you are?

into little tabloid bchs dangling upon every sleezebag lie, distortion and absolute BATSHITERY he'd blow from his arse, and even Trump knows that.

They haven't a fkng clue how to handle good news now, because they've found that nothing sells like HATE and VENOM.

They've been like that for so long now that they don't know how to do genuine news reporting. They don't even know how to recognize the difference between fact and rumor.

young, sharp journalist from a local station and give that person, or maybe a couple of people, the biggest break of their lives.

Bypass the dinosaurs completely.

The Dem Convention didn’t include luxury boxes with expensive lobster and other items for them. It was just regular seats and regular food.

Apparently a large number of press correspondents pulled a “do you know who I am” and complained that, compared to the GOP convention, the Dem event didn’t have enough premium luxury amenities.

There were 15,000 journalists at our convention. They had plenty to work with, but the elite media like the New York Times and such were used to being spoon fed stuff or at times with weaker candidates they controlled the narrative. Now the eyeballs of the lower voting younger demographic, which is most people Gen X and younger, that will decide this election are on social media and sites like Tic Toc and Youtube and such. And this is a good strategy Mrs Harris still has a day job to do, so it isn't like she has loads of free time like the boring spoiled brat. She has to budget her media time to where the most eyes and ears will get some or all of our message. But the regressive GOP loving media are trying to frame this as she isn't up to handling their questions, like they are in anyway competent to help us decide such an important decision. I know it should be easy now that we have an idea how crazy another DJT administration would be but it isn't with how long the prowealthy media narrative has being going the last 150 years.
