Good point about MSM. The reason you had such a significant % of Bernie supporters and actually anti-Hillary voices is because that is the generation who are using alternative media. I have some faith that Repubs will quit entirely seeing anything on the MSM as anything but propaganda and use other sources such as Drudge, Breibart, etc. all of which deal with the exposes of Hillary and the lies of the MSM.

There is still a generation of Dems and Soft Repubs though who still think they have to turn on the alphabet nightly news and see what the talking heads have to say on Sunday. These are the gullible ones. Unless they have developed ALT sources they’re ripe for exploitation.

The wheel’s still in spin on what the effect of the media technology revolution will be.

In the late ‘90s, I thought we were entering into a new age of enlightend citizenry, but look at what we’ve gotten.

So now I think the effect of the media technology revolution is a passive one (less ill-informed citizenry) than an active one (better informed citizenry).
