MSNBC Takes the Bait
“The people who most vocally claim to be worried about disinformation and Fake News — to the point that they want to censor the internet in its name — are, by far, the most aggressive and prolific disseminators of disinformation and Fake News. Always. Dems & corporate outlets,” says Glenn Greenwald.

The playbook has been to carefully craft every element to support your
side so it appears as a slick PowerPoint presentation with each part supporting the another in order to convince the client aka voter to accept the total
packaged presentation as truth. It worked in the past because the information gatekeepers
had a quasi-monopoly on information diffusion. That is no longer the case. The
internet has made it much easier to check and diffuse facts so the amateurish
attempt by the Lincoln project people fell apart right away because the
participants were recognized by their photos and as being Democrat operatives.
That real tragedy here is that they blindly followed the playbook and
did not recognize that the situation has radically changed when it comes to
information diffusion. They are not dumb, they went to good schools, but they
lack imagination and expected that what worked before would always work. I am afraid that that lack of imagination is widespread throughout the Democrat Party leadership. I wonder if the rank-and-file are also lacking seeing the type of people populating the schoolboards.
It used to be that you could take the same bit of information and feed
to diverse media outlets and have it come out as verified fact. Can’t do that
anymore because there are too many ways to verify and diffuse outside of the
mainstream media which by the way is no longer mainstream and now have ridiculously
low viewership.
