So the media should have just said nothing about a candidate who is clearly a danger to the country? How does ignoring problems work out for you in your life?

- jessaustin 9y agoHow does doing exactly the thing that leads to all your problems, over and over again, work out for you in your life? From the middle of 2015, Trump was on every channel of TV, all the time. If he is indeed such a threat, it is because the news media made him that. Without the news media giving Trump thousands of hours of free and unregulated TV ads, Clinton would have defeated Cruz by a somewhat narrow margin. Discouraged Republicans would have said, "Well, that's what happens when the opponent is the second-least-popular candidate in history, and you nominate the first-least-popular candidate in history..." Since I am a cynic, I see that despite their professed political allegiances, the news media are quite pleased by the prospect of seven more years of political insanity. Every USA president from now until the breakup on will be a veteran of reality TV.
