The mainstream media back then was afforded credibility and there were hardly any options. Today with the internet, people have found their own sources of news and information.
Dan Rather on election night 2000 killed off the credibility and ever since then the big media has become a lesser factor.
Look at today, the media is telling us that Trump is down 10pts to Biden. 4+ yrs ago and many/most of us would have believed it. Today? Nobody believes it.
The big factor of this election is going to be that Trump made big gains with women voters.

That would really surprise me. I think it’s more likely that the big factor will be the increase in GOP votes from black voters. I also think a larger percentage of Trump voters are messing with pollsters this time around, but that’s just a guess. For my part, I’m sure I’d lie to them this time around, but I haven’t been asked.
