It Was Only Yesterday Everything Changed


The McLean group's failed attempt to sway the election is partly just another story revealing the chaotic, threadbare quality of the Trump operation — a far cry from the coordinated “disinformation” machinery feared by liberals. But it’s also about a larger shift in the American media, one in which the gatekeepers appear to have returned after a long absence. 
....
 And I hope Americans relieved that the gatekeepers are reasserting themselves will also pay attention to who gets that power, and how centralized it is, and root for new voices to correct and challenge them.
We didn't even have time to get used to the new situation.
Although this came along today, too; and it doesn't involve deliberately misreading what someone said, either.
Funny how often that happens where Trump is concerned.
