Media's hostility is curbing its ability to hold Trump to account

[barryqwalsh]

Mr Trump's first press conference as president-elect was a disaster from a PR person's point of view. In fact, he simply continued doing what he did to good effect during the election campaign, namely kick the press. It wasn't supposed to work then either, but it did.

Writing in 'The Atlantic', a liberal American monthly, McKay Coppins points out that Mr Trump didn't just beat the political press during the election, "he burned down their villages, defiled their temples, and danced on the graves of their dead". He's still doing it and it's still working.

Why is that? It's because the press's hostility is so naked, so obvious. Mr Trump, like everyone in power, must be held accountable, but the hostility of the media towards him is so bad, it is undermining its own ability to do this.

What we're also discovering is that if someone is big enough to stand up to the media, he can get away with it. The media is best at bullying those who aren't big enough to fight back, or else are scared to do so.

Obama did the same thing to Fox news.

Boo freaking hoo!

The GOP has created the most efficient propaganda arm in American history. Its constituents now solely view Fox News, conservative talk radio, and a handful of white nationalist blogs as trustworthy. They do not post or report opposing viewpoints, and their purpose is to validate and reinforce each others beliefs as they become more and more extreme.

People hate the press. Trump tapped into that and it won him the Presidency.

The question you have to ask yourself is why people hate the press so much.

I know, it's Bush's fault.
