There is no 'perhaps' about the media's outrage factory. It distracts, causes unnecessary polarization and most importantly takes focus away from much bigger underlying issues - why voters turned to Trump, how to connect with them, the broken advertising/click/view maximizing model, campaign finance reform etc. Taibbi is asking the important question of how is focus going to get back to the real stuff, when outrage and emotion and blame are the only tools being used?
