Why Nobody Cares Trump Is Lying

Charlie Sykes: “For years, as a conservative radio talk show host, I played a role in that conditioning by hammering the mainstream media for its bias and double standards. But the price turned out to be far higher than I imagined. The cumulative effect of the attacks was to delegitimize those outlets and essentially destroy much of the right’s immunity to false information. We thought we were creating a savvier, more skeptical audience. Instead, we opened the door for President Trump, who found an audience that could be easily misled.”

“The news media’s spectacular failure to get the election right has made it only easier for many conservatives to ignore anything that happens outside the right’s bubble and for the Trump White House to fabricate facts with little fear of alienating its base.”

1. The psychos declared war on the press back in Reagan.

A truly free press is key to a free society. I understand that extreme far right sites like Infowars and Breitbart have a right to say what they want, but so do those mainstream media outlets they rail against. The New York Times and CNN also have a right to say what they want.

I was convinced during the Obama administration that he could save a baby from a burning building and the republicans would somehow spin it so that he caused the fire.

The left is furious and the middle just want to be left alone.
