For shit and giggles, here are some pre-5 November 2024 poll predictions
From here:
Who Is Favored To Win The 2024 Presidential Election? | FiveThirtyEight
Mainstream media gave tens of billions of dollars of free airtime as propaganda coverage to Harris. Democrats spent a billion bucks on the Harris campaign, twice as much as Trump.
Mainstream media has been repeatedly shown to be an inferior source of information, lagging far behind the level of debate of information on podcasts and citizen bloggers.
Advertisers need to think about whether they want their products and services associated with liars spouting drivel and propaganda that hurts the clients in their target markets.
The cable networks need to fire ALL their mouthpieces like Scarbrough ad Maddow.
The lowest number of households watched the election on networks on their televisions. Streaming and podcasts “ate their lunch”. MSM is no longer relevant.
Onwards!!!

MSM is dying and rightly so
Two years ago the Daily Telegraph wanted circa £350 Pa for the on line editions but asprompt “get lost” got it for £100.
This year they tried £150. Same response and I mean it, I will scrap it.
This year I secured it for £89.
I now only have it for reader comments which in many cases are very well informed and at time hilarious.
As a newspaper outside those comments it’s utter junk filled with covid/net zero etc propaganda .
It’s going to be hilarious watching the earnest but utterly wrong correspondents who are still saying Ukraine can win , now back track.
The sudden shift to sorts of support Trump is equally entertaining.
I should add I’ve read the paper since Sept 1969 so I have a fair grasp of its sentiments but since 2020 it’s sunk to the level of a comic.
It’s finished unless there is a vast change.
