"The real problem I see is not the dying MSM (which gets a lot of notice on FR but not so much in the real world) but the progressive control of all major internet portals."

You are very correct on this. I don't know how many times, when researching a topic with political implications, I do an Internet search and have to wade through a sea of liberal propaganda before I can get to the facts I'm looking for.

My experience (via my kids aged 26-32 and their friends) is that they are completely disconnected from newspapers and probably 80% disconnected from television news. If it’s breaking news, they’re watching Twitter.

If it’s not on the net or smartphone, they don’t see it. They do watch sports on television.

My grandkids see a newspaper (WSJ) at our house and ask me what it is.

All the folks on FR who say to ignore social media are the same ones who didn’t worry about progressives taking control of our public schools.

You mean like having to read 1000 words into an article, before you spot the main points that would have clarified everything at the beginning, if it had only appeared there?

Agreed!
