After the MSM helped secure the 2016 GOP presidential nomination — and then the White House — for Donald Trump, they spent the next several years counting down the days until he’d be gone.
Well, there’s definitely something to be said about being careful what you wish for:

BuzzFeed’s the only outlet with an increase, and it’s a relatively slight increase. And aside from Fox News, all of the outlets have a decidedly liberal bent.

Without Trump, the Atlantic has lost *more than half* of its online audience in the last year alone. The NYT and the Guardian have lost 1/3 of theirs. MSNBC and CNN's cable ratings are even worse.
