Trump Vic Turns MSM Cred To Crud

Trump’s landslide victory over Harris was also a landslide victory over the left-obsessed mainstream media. Its collective bias against the man was on full display as the biggest “news organizations tried to “prop Biden & Harris up.” How did that work out? MSM’s cred is now crud.

So opines WSJ columnist Kimberley Strassel. “No doubt the media’s ceaseless attacks on Donald Trump & Republicans did help round up some undecided voters. Yet the boosterism for Kamala Harris & Co. came at a far bigger cost: A narrative full of fantasy enabled Democrats to live in a world disconnect from the mood & worries of the country.” In a separate WSJ article, it was argued “Trump’s Win Cemented It: New Media Is Leaving the Old Guard Behind … Podcasts are exploding, Tik Tok is a news source & traditional media is shrinking in reach & influence.”

Actually, that conclusion may also be a gross wokish understatement. As Strassel pointed out: “The media … [has been] … pushed aside by podcasters & influencers whom voters now trust more to provide reality. Nearly 50 million people have listened to Joe Rogan’s interview of Mr. Trump, as it provided a more accurate assessment of the GOP nominee’s positions & the concerns of the country than ‘news’ articles about the ‘authoritarian’ intent on destroying the climate, abortion rights, democracy – choose your obsession.”
