The public doesn’t understand the risks of a Trump victory. That’s the media’s fault

With democracy in the balance, the press must relay the crucial importance of this election and the dangers of a Trump win

The Guardian

@shoq Few Americans read the NYT or any national newspaper. Not many more read a newspaper at all.

If it takes more than 30 seconds to explain something, local TV won't get near it, because they know their audience.

@Corb_The_Lesser But newspapers are read by many levels of influencers who influence many other sub-influencers. That’s why they get to manufacture and amplify narratives and we don’t.
