The stormy Daniel's issue is actually just one prime example that supports my case. You see, I listen to a lot of progressive radio, so I know the things they say and what the leftist narrative is.
As with EVERY story that comes out this is how it works:
Story breaks, immediately, without even a shred of proof, investigation, statements or anything, leftist news starts reporting it as fact. They run these stories for days and even weeks on end, again, with only an accusation, still no proof. Then their callers call the program and agree with the host, again, they themsleves only hearing the same allegation, no proof, and this get reinforced over and over.
Then, when someone writes a rebuttal or anything to disprove the claim, the radio hosts downplay downplay, dismiss, "its all lies", "it's fake news".
These things then get spread over Facebook and Twitter, which have become the largest spreaders of information, and before you know it, a story that has never been investigated has now become "the truth".
This is how about 99% of all bad press about Trump, and the republican party, is done. A story comes out and prog radio goes into "push" mode. I hear it every day. It's to the point where it's predictable. If a repub is in the news, you can count on prog radio trying to tie racism or homophobia to it within the first 2 minutes of talking about it.
