They have no choice.  They tried for over 8 years to convince the American public that Trump is Hitler incarnate, that he's a Russian stooge, that he is a rapist, a racist, a sexist, and a homophobe.  That he was massively unpopular and only the fringe far-right would vote for him.  That Biden was sharp as a tack, no matter what we see with our eyes and hear with our ears.  That Kamala was immensely likable and on and on with the blatant fucking lies.  

The American public didn't listen.  They have lost ALL trust and the end for them is nigh if they don't immediately shift to a neutral stance, at least in appearance.  They have lost their influence and they know it so if they ever want to manipulate the public again, they'll have to regain some trust by at least pretending to do real journalism.

We'll see if they're smart enough to realize it or if they just double down.

Who in their right mind would ever trust them?

Wait.  That statement has been valid for decades.

Who among those who has mistrusted them would be stupid enough to say "I'll give you a chance"?

Oh I'm not saying they'll regain the public's trust, only that they'll try in desperation.

We aren’t done yet, the media should be lambasted endlessly for this shit. It needs to be shoved up their asses and broken off there.

About 47% did. Why else would anyone vote for Harris? That's still a lot of people. That's their audience! I'm guessing most sane people no longer pay much attention to them anyway. So, they'll just double down to maintain their audience of "true believers".

Most Dems would never pull the lever of a Republican, just as I would never pull the lever for a Democrat no matter how big a piece of shit the Republican is.  Party loyalty got nothing to do with anything other than not being the other guy.  This was different.  Trump is an outsider.

I quit watching Fox after the last election. Newsmax was way ahead this year because my sister in laws kept texting my wife saying they were concerned. They were watching Fox. lol

The days of coming home to relax and watch the news ended a long time ago. I completely understand why Elvis shot his tv.

MSM consists of the most fanatical of leftists and they already believe they are catering to (what they think is) the center.

Look at the Washington Post. YEARS of relentlessly attacking republicans and protecting democrats, and they are told to just not endorse Harris- even though every article is an endorsement for her already- and they freaked the fuck out.

There is no fixing that.

Shit no.  They are doubling down on the “Harris was the better candidate but the racists and misogynists threatened women to stay home.”

No introspection.

You couldn't wade through GD without tripping over N_T mea culpas this week.

But the media won't change. They will lose power because they are no longer trusted. But they won't change. They will keep cranking out propaganda.

It will be less effective because the audience changed.

My 72-year-old self hasn't trusted the media since their dishonest treatment of Reagan.  My 65-year-old wife and 95-year-old mother haven't trusted the media for almost that long.

I believe that brainwashed lefties regardless of age are the ones trusting legacy media.
