If there’s anything positive coming out of this political climate, it’s the fact that people are realizing they can’t trust the MSM:
Only 37% of Republican voters say the news media is “an important part of democracy” vs. a majority, 51%, who says it’s “the enemy of the people,” via new Quinnipiac poll today.

Yes, INFORMATION is very important… but the “media” isn’t an important part of Democracy because the media is little more than biased hackery at this point. They’re not providing “information.” …They’re obfuscating it.
So of COURSE, the “media” decided to hit back. In the worst way humanly possible:
What do you see in this data? I see an infection that’s spreading… https://t.co/77UpEoW1yR

I’m sorry, Brian, but are you SLOW?
If a group of people doesn’t trust you, calling them an “infection” might not be the best way to win over their trust.

But of course, Brian was VERY offended by that.
Cheap shot. You’re better than that. “Enemy of the people” type rhetoric is an infection. In the past I’ve also called it a poison. Are you trying to distract from that?
— Brian Stelter (@brianstelter) April 27, 2018
Aaaaaalways the victim, isn’t he?
Maybe that “Enemy of the people” rhetoric is spreading because you call people who don’t trust you an infection.
HOW HARD IS THAT TO UNDERSTAND?!
How is it a “cheap shot”, when your position is that people’s opinion of the job you’re doing is their problem (they’re “infected”, after all), not yours?
What’s it going to take for you to examine yourselves?
Unbelievable.

OBVIOUSLY.
Do you not have any have any responsibility in this?

OF COURSE NOT!
As I said, poor little Bwian Stelter is obviously a victim. No one trusts him anymore because all of these “infection” people are being SO MEAN!
…idiot.
