The establishment political media have so discredited themselves, they're now nothing more than an impotent bubble of increasingly shrill white noise the real world has stopped paying attention to.

Their audience is either those of us hate watching or...
...Trump-hating junkies desperate for another fix of THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN, even though deep down inside, they know it's fake news.

But the media's real audience are themselves. The media are now a self-contained, self-perpetuating machine interested only in assuring...
...one another that they are right on the issues and oh-so virtuous.

When the truth is that all they do is tweet, troll, virtue signal and play stenographer for politically-motivated Deep Staters who they know lie to them. But still they pretend to be...
...journalists instead of stooges.

And the more their credibility and moral authority die in a fire these truth-arsonists started, the bigger they build the fire, as though continuing to do what they're doing proves that what they're doing is not amoral.

All I know...
...is that their ability to move the needle of public opinion is dead, which means I feel like my work is done.

That doesn't mean the media are not dangerous. Like any cult with mindless and angry followers, they can still provoke and encourage violence, spread hate., but...
....the overall influence is dead, the ability to meddle in our elections, to meddle in public opinion with hysterical narratives, the screaming of Nazi!, the cascade of lies is now impotent white noise.

Well done America!
