Or...have they? They knew Trump's rallies were bursting with supporters while Clinton's were not. They kept up the narrative that Clinton was a shoo-in. And then 46% of all registered voters stayed home instead of voting. Had they told the truth, I believe voter turnout would have been much better. So how are you so certain the MSM didn't manufacture their desired outcome?
- cronjobber 10y agoTo get a viable conspiracy theory, it would have involved crafting thousands of "Podesta/DNC e-mails" that show one kind of co-ordination, fake-leak them, while making sure that all of your communication to and between thousands of media people to co-ordinate the real conspiracy would remain secure.
