My prediction was that we the people would have to once again elect a white male as POTUS in order for the MSM to ever resume their function as the 4th estate.

Looks like I was right.

As soon as the next Democrat is elected POTUS, the unemployment rate will tick up immediately as every investigative reporter in the country will suddenly be out of work for a period of at least 4 years.

Depends on your definition of 4th estate. I haven't seen it since Nov.8th, '16. More like gossip rags imo.

Yep, since the media is the Dems Proxy, they were just waiting for a Repub they could Crucify. Esp one that pro USA, and anti-war, with a business know how to run the best economy in our History

You were very wrong my friend - they mated with the Obama Democrats and so can no longer function as an objective 4TH Estate --- they have bastardized journalism forever --- the NYT even admitted it!!

LSU winning the Natty is our only hope!!

The marketing wing of the DNC has a much easier job when their man is in power. Just keep your mouth shut.

I'm using the Merriam-Webster definition of the 4th state: "The independent press who becomes the guardian of public integrity"

In other words, a press that works on behalf of the people to keep govt honest, instead of functioning as a propaganda arm of a political party.

They weren't sleeping. They had magazine covers every day for 8 years touting Michelle Obama as the most beautiful first lady in American history.

I thought they would be fair for the most part. But the majority of the 4th estate is partisan and a mouth piece for the Democrat Party.

In that case, I'll edit my post here to I haven't seen that since Nov. 2008.

I guarantee you that when a Dem gets in those frickers are going to want revenge. If you think there's a war against conservatism now. Wait until they get control of the House and the Presidency. These fricking loons running for the primary seat make Hussein look moderate.

True. And magazine articles affirming that Obama was not gay. Definitely not gay. Not even close to being gay. 100% no homo.

I'm with your general premise, but I don't think either race or gender matters that much to the media if it's a republican.

I mean, most treat Ruth Bader Ginsburg like the FIRST female Supreme Court Justice and are more than happy and willing to excoriate any black man who deems to join the GOP.
