In short, Internet ads are delivered EXACTLY like internet scams, so there is no reason for consumers to treat them any differently. Now that we're out of the era of 14" 1024x768 CRTs, people would probably be fine with ads that are unobtrusive headres/footers/sidebars - but because online ads are so heavily based on garbage tactics and outright malware people are blocking everything ad-related.

To be clear just emulate the news parts and not the systematic coverup of child sexual abuse parts.

A Buttery Pastry posted:Isn't the BBC funding whipped by the Tories/the establishment in general? In any case, I'm not sure any organization, much less a media one, covering up long-running child sexual abuse is one to emulate. Clearly something isn't working there. It's a dangerously stupid thing to suggest that state funded public media with a mandate for impartiality and public interest somehow leads directly to covering up child abuse.

Nah, he'll say some vaguely intimidating things and every major media outlet will immediately fall in line and tone their criticism way down, which he will deem tolerable and graciously allow them to continue to exist. Hell, there have already been early examples of that, like HuffPo removing their canned "reminder that Trump is a horrible racist" line from every Trump article. Mainstream media will still probably be a little snippy with his administration though, because Breitbart is going to get all the exclusives and leaks now.

The biggest effect on the media, I think, isn't going to be Trump himself. Rather than that, it's going to be the fact that Trump won even though he openly demonized and spurned the mainstream media. The media tends to assume that the populace supports its right to exist and have a privileged position, and after Trump won despite openly blacklisting and threatening journalists while encouraging his rallies to shout pure hate at the reporters covering it, I think they're going to be rethinking that and adjusting their business accordingly. Trump will come and go, but the angry crowds shouting abuse at the TV cameras don't have term limits to worry about, and I think it's seriously going to disturb the main media organizations into reshaping their empires - after all, being unpopular is bad for business.

I can't wait to see all these assholes all turn up at the whitehouse press correspondent's dinner and nicely play along and not even for a minute act like they have any culpability for what just happened.

The media gave him like a billion dollars worth of free advertising. Trump is the result of "news as entertainment" as much as anything. I feel bad for erosion of the first amendment but on the other hand maybe news can be boring again.

Yeah, I can't see the democrats putting up the same kinda counter narrative opposition as the republicans did to Obama. Do you think it's the democrats incessant calling for unity and bipartisanship? If Schumer came out and said the same thing McConnell did about Obama being a one term president, people would flip their poo poo. Without an ounce of shame, republicans would say how the democrats are being overly partisan.

Alt-right media outlets spreading exaggerations and complete fantasies that radicalize the population which are then perpetuated across borders through the Russian Times which eventually feeds back into the national alt-right media and further distorts the alt-right narrative away from the truth.

So going along with this idea: do Trump supporters remain as outwardly aggressive and continue to proliferate after he's been elected, or do they fade into the background as time goes on?
