Conservative radio host admits ‘nightmare’ Roy Moore debacle is ‘a monster we helped create’
conservatives who sowed the wind by
dismissing any information they disagree with as “fake news”
are being forced to “reap the whirlwind of their war on the media” as Moore deflects credible charges of child sex predation by labeling them a conspiracy perpetrated by his political enemies.
“Their only response to this is really to find other villains in the process to take the heat off of them,”
said John Brabender — a GOP strategist and former aide to ex-Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA).
Former talk show host Charlie Sykes acknowledges his own part in creating the media bubble from which conservatives get all of their news,
effectively walling themselves off from viewpoints they find objectionable.
“These alternative-reality silos — not only do they reinforce an ideological message, but they can be impenetrable,”
Sykes said to The Atlantic. Aykes decried the “nightmare scenario” unfolding in Alabama, saying,
“You have credible journalism being attacked and ignored amid a flood of misinformation and bizarre propaganda.”
Sykes said conservative talkers need to come to grips with the role they played in training their audiences to rule out facts that don’t jibe with their beliefs.
“The trust in the media was already at a low point and by Trump constantly going after the media,
it’s further eroded faith in the media and has actually activated people to be against it,” said Republican strategist and former RNC spokesman Doug Heye to Gray and Coppins.
“That’s part of the tribalism we see in our politics, the erosion in all capital-I ins utions.”
“I think we should be horrified by the monster we helped create,” said Sykes.

Another huge reason that America is ed and un able is that rightwingnuts, their hate media, Fox, Repugs, evangelical Christian Taliban deny objective, repeatable facts, evidence.
