Media Collapse is Inevitable, and it's a Good Morning in America! Part IV

Back in June of 2018 Patricia McCarthy published this piece, The Barrs and the Bees: Leftists' rancid indecency saying: 

From the moment Roseanne revived her '90s sitcom as a Trump-supporter, the left was apoplectic..........Roseanne tweeted something crude about Valerie Jarrett, and the mainstream media lost their cookies. She's racist. She has to go. And so Roseanne was fired. Her show did not even air that night. That is how offended the "public" was meant to be. People had to be protected from Roseanne.

But then the previously unheard of Samantha Bee committed an even greater verbal crime. She used a lovely photo of Ivanka Trump and her son to vilify Ivanka on the basis that her father is responsible for the plight of illegal immigrant children streaming into the U.S. A giant leap if there ever was one. But that's how far the left has descended into madness since the 2016 election.......

 

The Samantha Bees, Kathy Griffins, Keith Olbermanns, Bill Mashers, etc. are offensive in every sense of the word, but they keep their jobs...............The entire display was an embarrassment to all Americans. Only the media love this kind of scandal. They live for, thrive on, this kind of verbal debauchery. Our media, most of them, are as indecent as Barr, Bee, Olbermann, Maher, and the rest of them aching for the death of the west....

 

More on this.  On June 3, 2018 Ethel C. Fenig posted this piece, Falling through the liberal looking-glass, noting the "bizarre alternative universe" the left lives in.  Rosanne's show was cancelled, even after she grovelled and apologized, over something she shouldn't have apologized for in the first place, but the word's "proudly vomited" out by Bee got a "Television Academy Honors award for advancing social change", and she was "rewarded with applause" from the audience. 

I posted these two "blasts from the past" because I wanted to demonstrate just how vile they've been and for so long, and what they've gotten away with.  Now, those days are gone.  The Pravda media is despised, vilified, and they're being ignored.  They're toast, and they're scared.  Their smug haughty arrogance is disappearing, but their outrage will never disappear. 

• How dare the public not grovel before them? 
• How dare the public question their unfounded claims?  
• Doesn't the public know they're too stupid to think for themselves?  

It's Whoopie's job to do that for them.  

 

Well, not any longer as both CNN and MSNBC's ratings are cratering.  They're going down the tubes financially.  But Rachel Maddow is willing to do her part to help.  She's taking a five million dollar a year cut in pay.  Now she's going to have to survive on a mere twenty five million dollars a year.... to do a show once a week.  Ya gotta see the humor in that, especially since she may not have a job much longer. 

What boggles my mind is what ever possessed the nitwit leadership at MSNBC to pay her anywhere near that kind of money.   Get real, they're talking heads, but the argument is they get ratings, and ratings generate advertising. Well, maybe they wouldn't have needed so much advertising if networks hadn't been so stupid paying nitwits like Rachel Maddow and Chris Wallace obscene amounts of money.  

But, the worm is turning, and streaming is going to take all that lovely, lovely cable bundling money away.  The consequence of that?   It seems to me both MSNBC and CNN will be sold at fire sale prices,  and if that happens it seems to me Whoopie and company will be gone, and they won't be alone in the unemployment line.   Now's the time for all these wealthy so-called conservatives to stand and deliver.  Buy them up, turn them around, make them successful, and Elon Musk might actually buy MSNBC.   But even if no one buys these networks and fires these vile nitwits, it seems clear they'll be out of a job anyway, because there will be no job. 

Greg Gutfeld claims MSNBC now stands for "Must Sell Network Before Christmas".  The executives at these networks are running scared, even forcing a co-host on 'The View' to "read four legal notes" during the episode on Friday.  Something they'd not have done if  Trump hadn't won, nor would they done so in after his 2016 win.  This victory changed all that!  This victory was different!  They've disgusted the public with their intellectual corruption, their vileness, their lies, their smug arrogance, and it "signals the end of the left’s control of the mainstream media [and] advanced the demise of MSNBC and CNN for good reason".  And this includes the print media as WaPo fires the senior politics editor.

Schadenfreude!
