Left-wing media might be dying but it's not so much about trust (that they are telling the truth), because the left-wingers are not interested in truth. It's about the failure of left-wing media to keep their readers in their beliefs. Left-wingers are religious zealots who fail to see reality for what it is. I feel sorry for them as there are fewer and fewer places for them to hide from the truth and reality - it is coming for them from all angles.
The rise of the citizen journalists having knee jerk credibility over the establishment media is a beautiful thing to behold indeed…glad to see it looks good on you
You simply do not need any MSM in your life, whether they tell the truth or not. Do not make the mistake if thinking these propagandists are going away. Like the eternal weed, they will resurface somewhere, somehow, sometime and bigger than ever. Beware.
We see tectonic plates shifting in the media, and they are overdue and welcome. Fundamental things are afoot. The center-right alternative mediaverse is proving stronger and more resilient than the left counted on.
Except ….. there is a rise in another version of left wing ‘media’. It is called BlueSky. Here, leftists can, and will, specifically tailor their readings to only leftist messages. Nothing that contradicts preconceived notions will be allowed to permeate their space.
Anytime something other than their preferred messaging invades, the entity will be purged. Not purged from BlueSky, but from their feed and from the message delivery service.

Don’t disagree with any of what you say here and CNN and MSNBC deserve what they get. Just hope if this administration tries to control media you’ll call it out as well.
It would be interesting for someone to write a book on the origin of these "departments" and why they were started. Would there be a common theme, such as one party started all of these? This was very interesting. Thank you.
Nailed it. We don't need the dying MSM. Wrote a column on this topic November 4th. The takeaway is that if we stop buying the product, it goes away. Happened to a rather infamous beer recently. Have a look at The Common Bridge.
And the truth shall set you free… Unless of course you are a politician or a left wing whack job foaming at the mouth media member… Thank God there are open borders to keep the US strong and assure a bright strong future and policed by the soul sucking Karens of this world.
I am not sure about the left-wing media dying. After 77 years of hearing these types of statements about both sides I have seen the ups and downs of both liberal and conservative sources.
To paraphrase the hippies, "All we are saying is give truth a chance." And I for one am even willing to take the chance that I'll read something hurtful. I know. I'm a hero.

And at least with the citizen journalists you can tell, if you are a thinking reader, what bias these journalists are bring to the table.

Problem is, you can fool just 50+% of the population and just at election time, and then get away with political murder for years.
Thank god for Trump
