Newspapers have or are laying off staff. TV Media is suffering historically low ratings and outlets like the Clinton Crime Network are laying off staff too.

Our media is shockingly useless, constantly playing catch up with actual news while obsessing over rumor and innuendo.

Consider the fact that the media that protected Bill Clinton — a man who as president committed perjury to cover up his sexual affair with a young intern, an affair conducted just a few rooms away from his wife and daughter in the Oval Office — is now obsessed over a porn star’s story that she might have had a consensual affair with Trump more than a decade ago.

When women credibly accused Clinton of rape, groping, and harassment, our media joined the White House in destroying them as liars. But this same media hoping to turn a 12-year-old consensual relationship into a national scandal.

Americans are tired of the media lying to them, misleading them, lecturing them… Today, there are plenty of alternative sources of news. No one needs to put up with what is called the MSM anymore.

The press needs to be the one thing a republic can count on, the one source that can keep us in our lane. In the same universe, at least.

Now that this is no longer the case, now that we can choose to believe only those sources we like, this can't be good for a republic.
 
Breitbart isn't laying off. Or Daily Caller. We still have journalists. We are watching the fall of the propaganda mills. Pray it continues.
