When it comes to politics is traditional media on life support?

The media’s job is to report the news and keep the Govt and its agencies accountable on the federal, state and local levels. Yet as we have seen the media now takes sides. Trump labeled them “Fake News”. Viewership is down and many are now getting their news from podcasts, Internet and apps like X.

With most networks working in line with the the Democratic Party and of course papers like WAPO, Boston Globe and NYT the narrative is highly biased. Meanwhile Fox and NYP lean conservative or toward the GOP. Although Fox will have Democrats and their opinions on there like those of Juan Williams, Jessica Tarlov and Harold Ford Jr. I do not see the same level on MSNBC, ABC, CBS and CNN for example.

As such, younger people will just tune them out IMO.

Can traditional media survive? Probably but they need to again start reporting the news and not make it a narrative aka news entertainment and shill for one side.

Agree or Disagree?

Do you want to change the business structure of foxnews, newsmax and aon?

It’s less about what I want and more about can they survive picking one side and one narrative when there are so many alternatives out there.

Only paper I trust now is the WSJ.

Are you telling me those companies are going to fail following their current business structure?

Will IDK. At risk for failure long term? Yes. 100%

We saw already that CNN ratings were down. I am curious if you look back 10 yrs how news ratings are for these networks

Seems foxnews is quite popular with your ilk.

I suspect they'll be doing gangbusters during the upcoming Trump Regime.

Do you disagree?

This election cycle hurt them more than any. Musk is going to thrive with X now as he is working to perfect long form streaming on his platform. Once he perfects this, Youtube and others will be on notice. Don't ever bet against Musk in solving a problem, the man is a walking neuron that can't stop firing. Constant action potential.

Probably but not for the reason you think.

Actually, what happens is that the MSM engages in too much "both side-ism"< where they've spent the last 8 years sane-washing Trump.

I wonder if they even have a clue that all of their biased reporting to influence the election against Trump not only didn't work, but it actually helped elect Trump. They need to do some heavy soul searching and take a good long look in the mirror. What they did backfired spectacularly.
 
Meh, that most Americans are woefully misinformed is not something to be proud of.
The most "technology impaired" people in the US (the Amish) voted for Trump in droves.

Word of mouth within a community must work too. Hispanics and black men must have got the memo too.

 
The legacy media has been harcore conservative for many years. Where have you been? For many years, the Democrats have known they're running against both the Republicans and the media.

Just look at WaPo openly smooching Trump's butt now. They're not even trying to hide it. The whole media spent the season sanewashing Trump.

Alternate media is the only spot to get non-Trumpsucking views.

Oh, as always, Trump cultists, remember that gaslighting doesn't work outside of your cult.

They don’t have a clue. They are narcissistic ideologues
 
Traditional media, much like many things, has been ruined by a magaturd party of garbage's 'alternative facts'. A bunch of fucking know nothing rubes always think they know better.

Everything else is Prog. It is proven that Progressive socialism run amok destroys nations. We started to feel the effects as even the wealth of ours has limits. Only stupid muthas would allow as many illegals into our nation as progs have. Its either that or they have ulterior motives. The lies though. the endless lies. Kamala even lied in her speech yesterday. You can see it. The Prog may sound so good. Then when their agendas are in practice it's like an uncontrolled protest as everyone is everywhere and there better e anything or anyone in the way.
