        It's an appalling piece. Blame the voters?

        I don't think he's "blaming the voters" so much as blaming the conditions which give rise to dumbed-down coverage.

        The premise is wrong. Media is (rightly) hated bc they aligned themselves with elites who dispossessed public. Full stop.

        Also, journalists have faulty self-conception. They lack true autonomy in corporate media sphere. They don't determine coverage.

        Hillary is the most Nixon-like candidate since Nixon...it's one of the reasons she likes Kissinger so much.

        @RollingStone only issue he didn't bring up is change in adding news networks to the ratings in the 80s I think. Changed everything

        The "media consumer" didn't stand a chance against the Establishment Media. Garbage in, garbage out.

        @RollingStone matt tabbi has shown himself to be very hackish lately; He should start doing LSD & try to channel Hunter S. Thompson

        how does media consolidation factor into this? Blame media consumers sure, but what about putting citizens/people first?

        Taibbi is the best. He's this generation's Hunter Thompson. Without the acid.
