>In fact, with blinkers removed I wonder whether the MSM still plays a reliable role in protection of democratic (small d) society and values. I agree with that WSJ article's observation that the likes of the Daily Stormer were invisible and ignored, until its rhetoric became useful to the MSM narrative. Trump then is blamed for the reincarnation of the KKK and White Supremacists even though he's obviously exasperated that the MSM keeps giving those groups sunlight and connecting him with them. Also I agree with the WSJ article that Democrats need to see that destruction of character has limits as a political tool. So far, the partisan MSM seems to be doubling-down on their anti-Trump rhetoric which now leads to the rise of alternative partisan media publishing rebuttals of what millions of people see as lies. Echo chambers abound and there's no Fourth Estate.

>For better or worse, Trump won. Those US people who don't only hope for his failure but participate in schemes to cause it, ought to remember that they're aboard the aircraft they're trying to crash. Meanwhile I wonder whether those who promised to leave the US or even the planet if Trump won, will honor their promises. So far, none have. But in real life, they need not be surprised if Trump's team acts as if people kept their word and no longer exist. When the media squalls that Trump keeps giving them the cold shoulder, even daring to have dinner with his family rather than hobnobbing with media grandees: they ought to take a look in the mirror IMHO.


This MSM thing is rather a broad brush. The media is owned by hard nosed businessmen who want to make a profit. Why do you think they would be pursuing a partisan agenda which is out of step with the times. ?
