The Mainstream Media’s Last Stand
- Dave Macy Saturday, September 1, 2012
This is it! The 2012 Election is all about the future of America either returning to sanity and her fundamental roots of hard work, fairness, and less government—or moving “forward” into a socialist dung heap.
But this election is also about the controlling liberal media. It’s the media’s last stand. There is a realization that the MSM influence is waning. The New York Times and other print media have seen their readership numbers crumble as Middle America chooses to seek out other forms of information.
The “big 3” networks ratings along with CNN, once the main disseminators of news (albeit biased) continue to flounder in the shallow end of the pool. The MSM sees this election as do or die. It is truly about their survival, their relevance, their influence—and they will stop at nothing to keep the country moving “forward” into the abyss.
After years of liberal colleges churning out liberal advocacy journalists, the power of the MSM is being tested in the most extreme manner. The attempt to hold on to a presidency they see as emblematic of their own values must end in Obama’s re-election for them to remain meaningful. This is more about them holding on to power as it is a president getting a second term.
