If we awake on November 9 to news that Donald Trump will be
the next President of the United
States , where does that leave the most
biased media in the history of American political campaigns?
This was the year for coming out of the closet by the media,
not in terms of sexual preference, but in terms of ideology and tactics.
It took a long time for them to wake up to the Hillary
Clinton vulnerabilities as there was never a doubt in the minds of the main
street media that she would continue the cozy sweetheart relationship between
the media and the liberal and progressive politicians.
As President Barack Obama comes to the twilight of his run
as president, the media expected to transition into a Hillary presidency
surrounded by all the people in the Establishment from past years.
The possibility that Trump could be a viable candidate for
president never crossed the minds of the media when they helped create the
Trump tidal wave that swept all the legitimate (in the minds of the media) GOP
contenders from the race
They dreamed of a match up between the vaunted and feared Clinton machine that has controlled the news media and
Democratic Party for twenty-four years and the oddball from Trump Tower ,
the Donald.
Well they got it and no one has learned the lesson better
than the news media, be very careful what you wish for because you may not get
what you expect.
In a state of panic since the Democratic National Convention
that nominated Hillary as she failed to crush the GOP upstart and put Trump
away, they seem paralyzed with fear she really might lose.
If it happens, the transformation in the news media in a
Trump administration may be just as cataclysmic as the fading legacy of Obama
when Trump focuses the light on the real failures of the Obama administration
while president.
Many media personalities crossed the line in journalistic
ethics by using their media positions to promote Hillary and destroy Trump.
Bias has dominated the media coverage of the campaign and
the role of individual anchors, reporters, producers, and editors made a
mockery of the journalistic ethics that call for an independent and objective
media when operating under the protection of the Constitution.
There is a definite liberal progressive dominance in the
news media, very inconsistent with the middle of the road philosophy the people
of America
share. The Obama politics of
partisanship, promises, and pandering fell flat though he was the first
media-anointed candidate for president.
Unfortunately, for the liberal media, Bill and Hillary
Clinton long ago figured out how to use the news media, Democrats, and liberal
progressive wing to make a fortune. Long
ago, they joined the one-half of one percent elite establishment controlling
the country and world.
That is the face of the darlings of the news media. That is not what the American public wants to
see and hear. So if Trump wins, what
happens to the news media?
Will Trump abolish the White House Press Corp, as unlike the
Clinton and Obama families who mastered the use of political power to
manipulate the media, Trump neither drinks nor likes to hang out with media?
Will the new Trump administration conclude self-serving news
networks no longer serve the best interests of the public because they filter
news, not report it. As a result, the
members of the Trump administration will no longer participate in news shows
not serving the public interest no matter if they are on NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox,
MSNBC, CNN, PBS, etc.
Will Trump welcome the foreign press correspondents to
briefings instead of the political press in order to get honest information to
foreign countries highlighting American involvement in world affairs?
Perhaps Trump will institute an entirely new concept in news
coverage of the White House by having regional news conferences instead of
national to avoid the control and filtering of the New
York and Washington ,
DC media over national news.
Trump could also eliminate public information offices in all
the departments, especially State, Justice, and Defense, and consolidate the
communications under the Office of the President thus greatly reducing the
leaking of classified or confidential information by the highly competitive
departments. It would also eliminate the
use and abuse by media of secret or anonymous sources "inside" the
departments.
As I said, I hope the media knows what could happen, if the
efforts to create a media bias against Trump or any other opponent to Hillary
Clinton fail. There are consequences.
A genie jumped out of a
bottle and asked the master for his wish.
I wish there was no more
sickness in the world.
Your Thoughtful wish is
granted master.
Every sick person in the
world dropped dead.
