to what has happened since 2014 by the lack of discovery. Our Fourth Estate went brain dead for the most part. Infotainment has become the Model of our Media and as a result,we now have a Reality TV Idiot in the White House.

Getting rid of the fairness doctrine, consolidation of media by 6 corporations, packing the
courts with right wing operatives, HAVA, Florida 2000, OH 2004, Citizens United, the gutting
of the voting rights act, Fox News, Hate Talk radio, the pandering to the worst of the rural-type
white voters, voter suppression, gerrymandering, and the selling of ignorance of science, facts,
and history as good things have taken their toll to our nation. Add in a slave era hold over and
the external manipulation by hostile foreign powers too.

BTW part 4 Hillary warned us about Trump and Russia days before the election.

As someone who try's to stay somewhat in tune,the real push came in 13-14 time frame once the Democratic Party likely Nominee was pretty much in place.

Our Fourth Estate went missing via the Merger Mania of Newspapers and Electronic . Do recall people posting alarming stories about how the Media was throttling open discussions about the Democratic Party Positions in favor of altra Right Wing Wedge issues.

or Megan Kelly or Chuckie Toad.

Do know this,as someone who volunteered in support of Hillary,I like many others,heard some really ugly feed back when working the phones.

My message is,consider the sources and double check the questionable.

And then get active volunteering in support of your favorite Candidate.

But all the oxygen had been sucked out of the room by James Comey's/GOP/NYC's FBI
rat fucking operation of HRC by spreading what they knew was Russian disinformation about
HRC's email server.

However In the end I really don't think the race was that close @ all because someday
we will all see just how bad the voting machines and central tabulators had been hacked.

canary in the coal mine with this whole friggin story. Happened to be watching Bloomberg when they did a Interview piece with this Turkey,and it boiled down to CBS/Viacom's Profits from the Trump Political face time. Latter it became evident that Comcast Media joined in with CBS in the Profit over real Public service.
