        Totally and it is working. But this makes sense when one of our two parties is drowning in propaganda. Why would the conservative leadership and elites have any interest in an independent news media?

        What is so interesting to me is how quickly they shifted any discussion of free speech to be about what you can post on twitter, and not about the gov’t restricting speech. It was truly amazing how quickly it worked as the conservative supporters just ate it up.
