It is interesting to consider mainstream media ratings are up but that Trump also won. I wonder WHY people watch news yet don't believe it?

-
-
well, all of these are generalizations. Some Trump voters "believe" the "news." Some Clinton voters don't. Etc
-
What I encounter (obviously anecdotally) on Facebook is that Trump voters (maybe Hillary's too) consume news simply to contradict it.
-
that interests me a lot
-
People complain that when media brings on a "flat-earther" for balance it legitimizes their bs. In fact I think it's good. Let them crash.
-
if their views are actually interrogated, yes. But too often just presented as counterweight only.
-
Yes. I used to enjoy even as a conservative when people with idiotic arguments went up against the likes of Christopher Hitchens.
-
I know not everyone liked him but he was just so good at truly interrogating the other persons argument.

Post election, I’m not watching cable news. I think the effects are still in the works. Publications are different in my mind

traffic is a poor indicator for engagement, but I agree that reports of the death of legacy news have been greatly exaggerated
