There is nothing good to say about Them. They are dishonest, destructive, stupid and crass. Are there any positives on their character ledger? Um, they are rich. They are relentless. They are, so it seems, unsinkable.
By any metric--newspaper sales, network news audience, approval ratings to name a few--the news media have lost clout. We once had millions of buffalo out west. They might not have a chunk of continent for their playground but an angry bull bison is more than a match for a Yellowstone tourist.
If anyone has squandered credibility faster than the media, I know not who that might be. But they are not dead. We wrote them off 2004. They came back in 2008 with their Macy's balloon of a deity and reclaimed their dominance.
In 2016, Trump and his Deplorables soundly defeated the hive. These thugs do have stamina, however. In 2017, the Democratmedia crush Senate candidate Roy Moore. The dinosaurs still walk our Earth.
This from Thomas Wictor: Please forgive him for his white on black text. UGH!
The demolishing of Roy Moore as a Senate candidate shows that Democratic gods of script writing are able to determine how virtually everyone in the country thinks about politics.
In the primary runoff, Roy Moore beat Luther Strange by 9 points. Strange had the endorsement of both the Republican establishment AND its bête noir Donald Trump. People have already forgotten that. They’re reading from their new scripts.
Strange had money and support from on high, but Roy Moore beat him. Moore was poised to win easily. Therefore the Democratic gods of script writing first conditioned everyone to think that Roy Moore is completely beyond the pale in every possible way. And everyone obediently internalized this characterization.
THEN the Democratic gods of script writing made outlandish, transparently false accusations against virtually the only man in the country who should have been immune to such slander.
But EVERYONE bought into the lies. They were in the script, after all.
