If it weren't for the fact that legacy t.v. weren't an inferior product, losing viewership daily, their lunatic messages and messaging would've been accepted unquestioningly across the country. It still is, amongst the more benighted people who either don't know any better or it's just the way they've done things all their lives, since the long-ago. It's not their lies, so much, as the fact that those lies no longer enjoy a monopoly over the public square.
I think their last, best gasp, was mobilizing the entire country to support the war in Iraq. The unholy alliance between MSM and the state was at its peak. They rolled over anyone who got in their way. Then one of the few who voted against such nonsense was voted into the Presidency. And re-elected in 2012. In the meantime, better and better competition for MSM was asserting itself. The MSM has been under siege and is doing everything it can with OLD methods, to break free and take over, again. I think it's a forlorn hope, but if they succeed, through big tech and the movement for government interference (key to the wrong things happening is bringing in the government, which has a monopoly on FORCE but can be corrupted by bribing or otherwise coercing a very small number of people), then this will just be seen as a brief last gasp of informed populace reining in the state, and seeing it for what it is.
