      Politics in a populist moment works very well with villains to target. Mass media is easy target for many reasons. https://twitter.com/jbarro/status/881516263222194178 …

      Media, especially CNN, has long treated politics as a spectacle and even hired master of the debased form, Cillizza, after the election.

      During the election, CNN hired hacks just to shout on screen. You turn politics into pro wrestling, and a pro will wrestle it away from you.

          There are many great journalists and amazing journalism being done. But, overwhelmingly, esp. TV media turned politics into a clown show.

          Pearl clutching after all this is worse than useless. Only one productive thing media can do now: Do your job, unlike before the election.

          That environ. to me precludes talking about news events with authoritative voice. @RadioFreeTom's book on this was great.

          Umm. I think FOX did that long before. They actually directly created the current culture of network news.

          Riiight. That soft spoken judge Jeanine can hardly be heard, or Alex Jones, or Rush. Gotta turn the volume up for those whisperers.

          They are still there. CNN probably invites his more than any other. Zucker probably loves this. #ratingswhore

          So CNN does what Fox News has been doing for decades and u only find it bad when someone else does it? It's Trump that has made it a circus.

          Politics has been a media circus for a long time. Fox and CNN are propaganda networks, not news. Hopefully soon we'll move on.

          Wow well said. I gave up watching CNN. I don't mind hearing other side, but panelists like Jeffrey lord are an insult to my intelligence
