The analysis is good. There is a trend of media diversification into the new media outlets. There have been spectacular successes in stopping media disinformation. People don’t trust the MSM like they did in the past.

However, most people still do. There have been hundreds of MSM outrages that have not gotten traction, because the MSM still controls the megaphone. They can spin the news as much as ever. Ask yourselves this – are the opinions of the people you interact with formed by the MSM? The answer for me would be a resounding yes. The influence of the MSM is not what it was, but it is still predominant. And then there is the liberal educational establishment that makes sure our young people don’t miss the message.

Fox is a major disappointment. Not much thoughtful debate, mostly people yelling at each other between coverage of missing blondes.
