Jennifer,
As other commenters here have said, you are incorrect implying that the MSM is playing catch up due to incompetence. You are much too kind, and you are understating the situation by a wide margin.
The MSM is playing catch up only because they realize that their arrogant, intentional lies can’t reasonably be believed any longer. With a few exceptions, the MSM no longer contains any reporters or journalists. Nearly all of them have happily transformed themselves into PR agents for the DNC, and into mindless, servile cult members for Obama.
Their blatent and sneering disregard for even the most basic of truths, or of fairness, is just staggering. They see it as their personal duty and obligation to say whatever they can, true or not, to promote hard-left people and ideas, and to utterly destroy conservative people and ideas.
Their intentions and their actions have absolutely nothing to do with journalism. They are well aware of this, and they are all too happy to knowingly abuse their positions and their power to disseminate profoundly dishonest, hard-left brain washing and propaganda.
I hope any future articles that you might write on this topic do not miss the mark as badly as this one did. The time to be polite for its own sake, has long since come and gone.
