Has the media learned nothing since 2016????

I have held a grudge against the majority of the media outlets for both spending way too much time covering Trump during the 2016 election and allowing him to ridicule the media in general all the while letting Fox kiss his ass. The rest of the media hasn't given up on this dynamic and we might just see it all again in 2024. I'm sick of it.

The crazier Trump gets, the more free coverage he gets. The more free coverage he gets, the more people tune into his message. The more people tune into his message, the more people end up voting for him.

Trump is like a drug to these media outlets. They all want to be the first to report that he made a racial, misogynist, hateful, statement about whoever and the media eats it up. All the while, Trump is openly condemning them as the enemy of the people. This game only works if you participate.

Here's an idea... STOP FUCKING COVERING THIS ASSHOLE THAT IS BOTH USING YOUR NEWS OUTLET AS FREE ADVERTISING AND CONDEMNING YOU AS THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

It's that simple. Stop hiding behind the silly idea that all news is worth reporting.

"Woke" is when a conservative realizes that everything they have been taught is BS

That's why you never see woke conservatives and why they see the term as an insult to label others with.
