I’ve thought that Dan Rather was the definitive case study. He gets caught... and caught dead-to-rights... committing forgery, and instead of owning up to it he doubles down, thinking (I presume) that his status as a journalist will save him.

The networks will die when people stop watching them. That hasn’t happened yet.

TV is a bad habit, unless you are very selective, which hardly anyone is. It does everything for you.

Also, many people don’t read. Pictures are more fun than words, and videos are more fun than pictures. That’s why O’Keefe says get a video camera and a YouTube account.

I don’t know how we can break the TV habit of hundreds of millions. I can tell by the number of outgoing orders in the diner when there’s something good on TV. It’s a national plague. And the old media still have control of it.

Right now it is that same media that is influencing electors to shirk their constitutional duty. A lot of people STILL believe what they see on TV.

No the mainstream media is not dead, far from it. Losing power? Yes. Near death? Yes.

They may be soon irrelevant to mainstream America, but they will always have a grip on certain segments of the population.

They need to be legislated into telling the truth, into being unbiased, fair & balanced if you will. How this can be done while preserving the integrity of the 1st Amndmt is beyond me, but someone will figure it out.

THIS is what pushed Hillary over the edge - James was under her skin and she went with the 'deplorable' thing... and the rest is history. Hats off to millions of us each doing our part... and a big special thanks to James O'Keefe.

James O’Keefe did such a great job. Killing Acorn, Killing the media, Killing Clinton, Wounding Planned Parenthood. Its been hard work. It took lots of time and money. But James has been a great American. We owe him.

James was one major component in the complete effort to defeat the leftists. THANK YOU Project Veritas and keep up the good work!

"If anything, they’re more desperate and hysterical than ever. A bitterly scorned evil bitch.

Which is blatantly obvious, and will increase the backlash and hasten their downfall.

programs that are nothing more than fiction designed to soothe anxious people whose anxiety has been aroused by false narratives in the media.

Exactly. Being forced to watch network tv news, having avoided it for years, over Thanksgiving weekend convinced me its job is to scare old people.

The brokered MSM have confirmed they are nothing more than left-wing propaganda

The problem I see is that we are now a completely divided nation. We can’t have polite conversation about politics because the other side literally thinks we elected Hitler. And we harbor lots of bad feelings for the libs too.

So now we have a bunch of left wing media and right wing media, and we all retreat to our respective echo chambers. There is no political discourse, we have been made into enemies. Seriously, these marxists have us all at each others throats and its scary.

What I would like to see is for RSBN to or some other new media to just have objective factual news REPORTING where they demonstrate what reporting is supposed to be. Just the facts without the news reader adding opinion.
