What’s the link to white people without a college degree? I don’t think they are the core readership of any of these sites.
These outlets shape national coverage. They are read by voters. Reluctant voters. Voters deciding to volunteer. Whether to vote.
Also, my issue isn't just about outcomes. This method of distraction is pernicious and plays to press weaknesses. Should learn.
Yet somehow the readers of these voted against Trump overwhelmingly. What about death of local papers? Or weakness of b’cast news?
Add all that. You can't know what the electorate would look like has there been more appropriate focus for both candidates.
Do you think your bio is impressive? JK. It is pretty amazing, thank you and congrats on your many successes. GR8 info.
