In reply to the discussion: GRIM BIDEN WARNING ABOUT TRUMP THREAT AT PRESS DINNER [View all]Cosmocat
(14,858 posts)5. You are right
I have seen this play out over many decades.
I am old enough to remember straight journalism, Howard Cronkite and his like on TV, traditional newspaper journalism.
But, the right wing started up with their "liberal press" bs, and relentlessly attacked them, and then their overall brainwashing effort ultimately dug in with many who got into it who deep down actually think and believe the evil liberal boogyman bs.
They vast majority now are conditioned to do the bad news for dems and prop up Rs thing.
That is their role in this shit show.
