Why Right-Wing Media Wants its Viewers to Live in Another Reality - SMERCONISH

There is the perception that these ecosystems are evenly divided between the right-wing and left-wing media, but this is an incorrect assessment of an expansive system with mainstream news organizations, partisan media outlets, and a good deal of garbage spread all around.

Clearly the big assist by creating this reality they can make it whatever they wish it to be.

From the piece:

"Maintaining a steady stream of emotion is a successful strategy for media outlets whose financial imperatives demand large audiences. Hyping up the American public’s partisan polarization to the point of hysterical frenzy, however, is irresponsible, undemocratic, and dangerous. As long as right-wing media operates as politicos and not as journalists, America will continue to live in two separate worlds."

Is that why literally every post you make on literally every thread (political or not) is a partisan post?

Gee, here are the last 5 threads I started:

2 are about republicans and their misery (see yourself for example); 2 are about the NFL. One is about how the democrats will screw it up...again.

As for this thread.... do you honestly believe that the right wing losers (again see yourself for an example) are living in an alternate universe?

Liberals - in this case a liberal journalist - once again projecting.

It's uncannily like the Nazis (the real danger) targeting the Jews.

But liberals gotta liberal - whatcha gonna do?

Conservatism is fundamentally irresponsible, undemocratic, and dangerous.

The alternate universe is now a completely separate, closed, insulated, self-sustaining informational ecosystem.

The process is complete. The door is locked.

I often wonder if Limbaugh ever regretted what he fathered.

That piece could be written the exact same way about the left wing media. Don’t you agree?

I agree the fringe left and right are in a alternate universe when it come to reality and what they want to read and hear.

On the right you have the talk radio, OAN, Newmax and so on and on the left you have MSNBC, CNN, Huffington Post, DailyKos and so on that spew nothing but propaganda for the weak minded individuals that want to believe something that is not real.

This country is doomed and we were warned for decades this would come but as usual everyone ignored it or just simply wanted it…

Because you and some partisan opinion hit piece says so?

He's absolutely correct and I've been saying the same thing since fox became a thing in the 1990s.

Ooh look! A weak attempt at deflecting.

He likely regretted not cashing in more than he did. The radio involves some active listening; you can only do so much to impress people impressed by spectacle--remember how all of the blobbers were impressed with the "high energy" of a guy who couldn't lift a glass of water to his mouth? Limbaugh probably regrets not having the bariatric surgery sooner and plugs to fully fleece these idiots further.

The correctness of the author is further hammered home when you consider how many right wing loon sites get launched every year to get in on the action.

But liberals gotta liberal - whatcha gonna do?

You could start with trying to get a clue, but I realize that is a huge step for you.

 

[candycorn]

That says what exactly?

You guys have created your own little world where the election was stolen in 11 states with zero proof to back it up; that vaccines do not work eventhough virtually everyone dying didn't take the vaccine, that we need more election security when there is no proof of a stolen election, that Mexico was going to pay for a wall...I could go on and on. Some dumbass really believes there are over a million shootouts a year between gun owners and marauders.
