Do you believe that Donald Trump's candidacy and soon-to-be presidency has influenced young journalists to gravitate to the left or to the right on the spectrum of U.S. politics?
Hard to say. Trump and Hillary were both awful candidates, so they more or less canceled each other out. Each individual perspective journalist was probably just pushed farther in whichever direction they were already leaning.
What about all of the "crooked media" comments and supposed harassment by his supporters at rallies? Do you think that might have propelled some further to the left?
Hopefully it motivated them to open their eyes and realize that MSM has a hard left bias and to strive to be more fair and investigative in covering and reporting events OR to be honest in stating that their product is editorial/opinion.
I don't know Orkie, but he's still making those remarks. I haven't heard anything about harassment by his followers. The media is angry that he bypasses them with his tweets also.
