Excerpts from article:
...Media bashing only works as a political strategy because it taps into decades of existing anger and frustration among voters who have long viewed the media as corrupt and incompetent.
...After last week, even Democrats might find it hard for the media to continue laboring under the delusion that dislike of the media is a Trumpian or partisan phenomenon.
...Even worse, prominent Democrats are warning that the party's electoral prospects hinge on distancing itself from a media that is, well, unhinged.
...The problem for Democrats with Heartland sensibilities such as James Carville is that the media are now galloping so far left that they aren't in a position to help the party's mainstream candidates.
...It's one thing for Trump to attack the media - but if Warren and Trump both agree that media bashing is a winning political strategy, the media should probably admit they are alienating their own customers.
