Despite the MSM’s all-around awfulness, they’ve still got elements worth defending. But S.E. Cupp’s going about it all wrong.
Every now and then I think about the fact that just six years ago "binders full of women" and "you didn't build that” were what passed for serious controversies.

When you think about that, I hope it’s crystallized that Democrats tried to demonize a good man with awful invective that wasn’t true. Those controversies were propped up by the media. And that was a disgraceful failure of the press, which has contributed to a huge distrust. https://t.co/K19aO2uxDw

We’re with her so far …
You literally work for CNN.

Proudly. Your point? https://t.co/dTSzuHMAIG

You're "the media." Congrats.

Thanks. I’m super proud to be part of the media. We work really hard. We are how you know anything about anything. https://t.co/YUt9dIi3bb

Yeesh. “We are how you know anything about anything”? Not exactly winning hearts and minds with that take.
Seriously?

Always find your analysis informative, but as you can obviously see from the comments, too much hubris in your overstatement

Ego much?

Careful, you could dislocate something patting yourself on the back with such vigor.

Last sentence. Preposterous. On so many levels. I've been a long time fan but never saw this exaggerated sense of professional worth. I don't need you to know anything at all. Incredible.

Wow. What an arrogant way of looking at things.
— Lyle Armstrong (@Lyle_Armstrong) July 22, 2018
Yeah, that sounds like self delusion to suggest it is the likes of you that provides awareness to everyone about anything at all. Check your ego at the door Miss Thing.

You seriously overestimate your importance. Such stunning arrogance. https://t.co/o3szK6pu5d

This tweet doesn't help your image.
— Micah Dragon Energy ? (@illMakeit) July 23, 2018
Yeah, it’s not a great look.
You had a point until you got out over your skis on this one. There are many, many independent journalists killing it these days and they often get the scoop first and completely. Sorry but CNN is way to filtered to be taken seriously.

This arrogance is exactly why fewer people trust CNN and other traditional media outlets. The assumption that the traditional media is the key for us ‘common folk’ to know anything is ludicrous.

I know what I know about what is happening in our world in spite of "reporters" like yourself. Always remember that It's not about what the media reports, it's about what they don't. Keep those blinders on Cupp, you're doing great…
