2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumI don't understand the masochism. I keep seeing these threads about
MSNBC, CNN etc etc. Why not just stop watching that altogether? I don't just mean now. I mean completely. If people keep watching that garbage it'll only encourage them. To each his/her own and all that. But I guess I don't get it.

(13,305 posts)The people that watch and post about cable news endlessly are under the impression that they are actually doing something that helps anything and that they are providing a service.
They are not. They are literally just as much armchair warriors as those on the right. No, they are not "keeping track of what the enemy is doing or saying". Thanks for your service, but I can know what "the enemy" is doing just by opening up a window browser.

(47,534 posts)I agrees with their Rachel wondering why Panetta was booed, I agreed with their praising of Obama's speech the "passing the baton." They commented that while many bashed Trump the person, Obama bashed "Trumptesim."
And I think that Steve Schmidt and Nicole Wallace are having much better time covering the DNC than the RNC (if they did).
