Trump’s Media Strategy is Failing-Here’s How to Fix It

Those little papers are owned by large media conglomerates. They publish what they are told to, including the “editorials”. This is certainly true in my state and my rural area. Lee Enterprises dictates the local weekly contents.

Once upon a time, when the town had fewer residents and most people farmed, this little town/county had two competing papers. One was called the Broadcaster and it did just that. The other was called the Censor, and it was also true to its name. Back then, the content on which they disagreed was what we would call doxxing, today. Everyone read the Broadcaster, but wouldn’t admit it. They paid for the Censor, advertised there and pretended it published all the news. Eventually, they merged, then dropped the “Censor” from the name. Today, “Broadcaster” is simply a bastard sibling of the MSM that makes ad money for the regional conglomerate.

I’m not a fan of Cerno, although I do watch some of AJ and like some of his other contributors. But Mike has a point in this article. The enemy trumpets their confabulated, inflammatory propaganda while our truth whispers to itself in the corner.

I’m not on FB or Twitter or Instagram, etc. But I send daily links to conservative friends who not only are on social media, they say they have little time for vlogs. I try to pick short excerpts and I’m always on the lookout for bullet lists, timelines, cliff notes...anything that will concisely present our side of the issue.

I hope it helps them counteract the daily negative blatt. No one has told me to stop. Yet.

Number One Priority should’ve been the FIRST TIME a leak came out of the Oval Office. Fire everyone if he has to, surround himself with a small loyal group in there. Everyone who has leaked from inside the Oval Office and anyone who enabled this behavior by not reporting them should have already been taken away with handcuffs, charged with treason.

If a tree falls in the forest and there are only liberals there to hear it does anybody care which lumber company gets the tree as long as the skidder-loader runs over as many liberals as possible getting to it?

The answer is: $2.75

Trump was right (for the wrong reasons) when he jokingly claimed he could shoot someone on Fifth Ave. Most of his supporters would never see the story, and absent a clear video, wouldn’t believe the story if they saw it.

If he shot someone from Antifa, the MSM, or the Swamp, I might hear about it, but I wouldn't care.

[CincyRichieRich]

Sounds like a great plan to me...link OANN also!

[eyedigress]

This article is spot on.

Ignore the MSM. You seem to not like the advice.

Kill the press briefing? I wouldn’t do it, I would just have
Dennis Miller give it.

[who knows what evil?]

Quit posting articles from liberal rags, and stop following their bullcrap assaults on our President and our beloved nation.

Bump the hell out of that statement...I have been saying for some time that we should NOT be posting articles from the Huffington Post, Daily Beast, Slate, Salon, and other 'major' papers and media outlets. We KNOW their opinions...why help spread their poison?

Appreciate it!

Yes, Trump should pursue the vision he set forth during the election. The swamp opposed him then and it did not stop him. Why would he let the DC swamp kill is vision for the country now?

[Oatka]

There are calls here to stop posting articles from the liberal propaganda outfits.

I beg to disagree. I don’t bother with TV or print media, so don’t see the latest crap they’ve put out. I use FR as a clearing house and when HuffPost or WaPo, et al are reported, I have a place to go and make comments on that specific article. Been doing that for years now.

Take that away and it would mean having to scan through their whole site, which I am not inclined to do, looking for targets. Keep posting ‘em, otherwise we end up preaching to the choir and become too insulated.

Your new keyboard is in the mail! LOL

[Windflier]

You really should save that comment somewhere (like your home page). Its truly one of the funniest comments I’ve ever seen here.

[TigersEye]

Thanks, Windy! I was definitely in a rare mood yesterday.

Hope it was a nice sweet Zinfandel and not some bitter Port.
Wouldn’t want you to suffer permanent sinus damages.

Your suggestion has been implemented. ;-)

[Windflier]

Oh man, your home page is the bomb with that quote there! Perfect!

Yes, the wine was a pink Zinfandel, as a matter of fact .. LOL

[TigersEye]

I’ll have to say, it does fit in very nicely below the charging tiger.
Good call on your part!

[Windflier]

Good call on your part!

Glad I could help. The wine's on me ;-)
