It used to be the case that the "gatekeeping" media *would* routinely invoke false equivalencies, in a vain attempt appear "objective."

But Trump has caused them to dispense with all that. And now when pundits shriek "false equivalency!" they do it to deflect criticism of HRC

So we've entered a new era, with a new dominant media ethos. That can be a good thing. But it needs to be acknowledged and reckoned with.

Media critics can't stay mired in yesteryear when phony "objectivity" was in fact the dominant ethos. It's clearly been supplanted.

Reckoning with this shift requires a degree of self-awareness and self-criticism that I doubt most media are capable of. But we shall see.
