ALL of mainstream news are falling all over themselves to stay in the good graces of the Lunatic-elect! Oh sure, there are a few articles here and there, and lots of op eds, but they only care about the insane amount of money they are making from the Gerry Springer model of drama-as-news.

Take for example, the Thank You arena-sized "victory" tour Trump just held in Cincinnati OH, reported by the NYT to have been a monumental affair, stuffed to the rafters with adoring fans. That was until a few credentialed press people from the Guardian, the Daily Telegraph and other reality-based foreign newspapers snapped photos of a less than half-filled venue with large blocks of empty seats and posting them to Twitter. So, in reality, the event turned out to be a YUGE, Trump-sized disaster that anyone relying only on American news organizations for all their news consumption might have otherwise never known the truth!
