I disagree. I think that the conservative corporate media - NBC, CBS, ABC, New York Times, etc - has let people down. They are still playing this like it’s just a fun horse race with no consequences to the GOP cheating themselves back into office. People who don’t tune to politics but occasionally need someone to tell them WTF is happening, and it needs to laid out plainly: the GOP is trying to install a fascist dictatorship. They are trying to take over the country by any means necessary. The media soft-pedaled the GOP’s treason with Russia, they’ve let a clucking attempted coup staged with the full support of the GOP get “both sides’d” into meaninglessness.
This is the failure of the corporate owned media, as well as of those who do pay a little attention but tell those of us who name the problem for what it is that we’re “alienating” or “overblowing” the issue. WISE THE EFF UP. TELL YOUR FRIENDS. Do not keep your awareness to yourself. God knows knuckle dragging Republicans never do (witness the viral spread of antivax propaganda!).
Look at Politico’s take on GOP vs Democrat. It’s outrageous.
? since when are these media outlests (except for CBS) considered conservative?
They always have been. Just because cons like to work the refs and complain that they’re “the liberal media” doesn’t mean they were right, it means they were running a con on America.

Absolutely. The Republican party needs to rebuild itself. But they refuse to.

Me too. They have about a year to get this done before a Republican majority shuts it down. Where was the impetus last January and February? I did not get the sense that Garland is taking this very seriously either.
