The point of interest here is not that the White House is trying to, or is, manipulating the media; the White House always tries to do this.
-Teh issue here is that the news media, journalists, etc., let themselves be manipulated, ...want themselves to be manipulate, ...go out of their way to get themselves manipulated.
-IN the past, most journalists (not all of course) would act to protect the integrity of the fourth estate. That no longer seems the case.
-I spent many yers studying the former Soviet Union and that meant reading their newspapers and journals. The US citizen today has to be much like the former Soviet Union citizen, he/she has to read between the lines of news reports, ...must assess the source, ...know the party issues ...understand the reasoning for the lies... and only then, try to reach a bottom line.
-sad to say, we seem to be nearing that point!
