Despite the argument here being obvious, what I like is that the author calls out the reader. I have, so many times, said to myself "It's all the idiots that buy the products and click the links that cause the world's problems." It takes something like this for me to think "I clicked a ton of links that covered shallow topics this election season, I should try to avoid doing that next time."
I guess mainstream media is to blame regardless of who gets into office. After years of hearing the media had a liberal/Democrat bias, now the author tells me the media has a Republican bias. Oh, no, wait - a bias for the spectacular. Is this really news to anyone?
