Going all in on attacking President Trump isn’t proving to be a particularly effective business strategy for media outlets.
The Weekly Standard, a 28-year old neoconservative institution, is reportedly headed towards dissolution after its founder, Bill Kristol, devoted almost three years of work to attacking the President and his supporters.

It’s not just Kristol. The entire world of clickbait Trump-hate seems to be in jeopardy, including sites that cater to the liberal base....

I wonder what happened to Beck. I actually really liked him on Headline News, but I was living in Canada and it was the best commentary up there on the US at the time. Then he went off the deep end around the time of his mysterious illness. Very much lacks the conviction he appeared to have in the mid 2000’s.

Every single one of these seemingly talented operatives that suddenly switched sides... they were always controlled. You dont get to have a career that far up the ladder in these mega corps without being owned. They hunt and grab up all the talent and suck it up into their machine. One day they need something. and you are activated.

Beck must have been disinfo like Alex Jones. His reporting on Tides foundation and other connected orgs never went anywhere and I never heard anything about those orgs after him. Also his 56 Congressmen who were informats never went anywhere.He constantly promised things on Fridays to be exposed on Monday and come Monday he went an entirely different direction. Total clickbate. Hannity used to do that too. But the biggest fraud of Beck was when he organized 9/12 in DC and then was a no show. I went and it was great. Some Patriots reported over 1 mm showed up. We completely shut down traffic coming into DC there were so many people. Later that night Fox didnt even cover it and O'Reilly barely mentioned it only to lie and say only 70,000 people were there. I think it scared them all that over 1 mm Patriots were willing to come to DC to protest the Government. We could have taken over DC if we had a mind to. I think if Trump called Patriots to DC we might get 20 mm.
