we have counted on the media to save our Republic by actually reporting on the insanity, corruption and authoritarianism that is Trump. We have to accept that they are complicit in this coup - they've loved him since he came down that escalator because he gets them clicks and gives tax breaks to their corporate owners. Now, they fear him as well. We will get no help from the media, which is why I harp on our leadership needing to be louder and smarter about how we message. If/when we take back the reigns of power we need to bring back the Fairness Doctrine and challenge the consolidation of media as an antitrust violation.
