Well it's 2017 :food-smil and all sides of the discussion have twitter, and facebook, and cable shows etc.

In my opinion, Pres Obama controlled the news the govt put out, but because it jived with most media, and because he was personable, it wasn't treated as an assault on humanity. FDR, LBJ, definitely JFK all controlled what was fed through to the press. Other than Reagan, the rest of the Republicans have just plain blown it when they spun news or limited bureaucratic responses.

One thing I guess differentiates older and younger, is that older people (myself at 49 am at the young end of this group) grew up with 4 tv channels, maybe 1 phone. It was a big deal in my house when we got call waiting.

I get that information flows more freely now, but much like when I type too much, not everything that is being put out is worth the cyber air its sent across.

Well put. Agreed.

You want to know why Trump won? Because folks, excuse me not folks, but pussy millennials are offended somehow by a Seinfeld joke. People are tired of the overly pc environment. Trump ran on that message and folks identified with it.

Amazing how sensitive of a generation we've raised.

Trump has removed or will remove information that he believes is false and misleading.
I know its nice to demonize him by calling it censorship but thats not what it is.
And if it is a "government" website the should decide whats on it?
Wolf Blitzer?


LOL, so the "World according to Trump",damn all the facts is that it?When one man decides what it is you should know to fit "his agenda" then yes it's "censorship".
If Donald Trump says the sun is up I'm looking out the window!

Lol hilarious...the electoral college. Why is this a problem now and not in the middle of the campaign or years before?

If you think it's that true or actually that simple, I promise you trump will get a second term.

But my point is this culture shift has hurt the country and trump successfully tapped into it. Read the joke giantone, terrible isn't it?

Hillarys intolerant tolerance scared me more than anything Trump said.

In my opinion the democrats ran the bigger fear campaign, every person I know who voted against Trump did so because of fear not because of Hillary's vision. Every voter I know who voted for Trump either saw hope in his message or hated Hillary

That's great, can't wait to see how this goes over the next few years as government agencies that are already seriously understaffed struggle to provide valuable services to the public.
