Non-adversarial journalism is called propaganda. https://t.co/OYt0z9RW8t

Donald Trump’s victory has been a wake-up call to many members of the media. How did Hillary Clinton manage to lose to Donald Trump despite everything they told us about Donald Trump? What did they do wrong?
Well, one thing’s for sure: They’re not gonna let something like this happen again. As Mic staff writer Sarah Harvard assures us, things are gonna change:
I was scared at first, but now I'm amped. The next 4 years will produce some of the best adversarial journalism we've seen since 8 years ago

Oh?
@amyharvard_: What were you doing for the last 8 years?
— Matthew Salzwedel (@mrsalzwedel) November 11, 2016
Great question.
@mrsalzwedel well, i began high school
— Sarah A. Harvard (@amyharvard_) November 11, 2016
OK, fine. So that’s her excuse.
@amyharvard_ read her replies people – she's 23 years old. It's true that journalism took 8 years off, but this isn't one of the culprits

What about all the other journos who are suddenly realizing what actual journalism entails? What’s their excuse?
. @amyharvard_ so….you admit y'all have been lapdogs?
— Liberty Farm (@LibertyFarmNH) November 11, 2016
@amyharvard_ so there’s been no need for adversarial journalism before now? Sheesh.

@amyharvard_ well at least you're clear the press were/are advocates for Obama

@amyharvard_ This has nothing to do with you. Your tweet clearly explains that journalists werent doing their jobs the past 8 years.

@amyharvard_ Thanks for admitting the U.S. Media was Obama and DNC's lapdog for 8 years.

@amyharvard_ Glad you admit democrats are gifted with "non-adversarial journalism". The American people knew and that's why you lost.

@amyharvard_ Why wasnt there adversarial journalism the past 8 years? I hope you understand what you are implying.
— Greymarch (@Greymarch) November 11, 2016
@amyharvard_ I don't think u understand what "journalism" actually means, dummy. It's meant to be adversarial ALL the time bc truth or smth.
— G.G. Liddy (@ThirtyMinuteAbs) November 11, 2016
@amyharvard_ that 8 year vacation is part of the reason you now have a reason to be a journalist again. Well done.
— Andrews Dad (@Andrew_Dad) November 11, 2016
@amyharvard_ So you are admitting that "adversarial journalism" went bye-bye for 8 years. Why should anyone listen to you now?
— KeepCalmAndDrawl (@FormerlyFormer) November 11, 2016
@amyharvard_
At least you're admitting that adversarial journalism was put on hold while Obama was POTUS.That's a start.

.@amyharvard_ Thanks for proving my point that Trump just single-handedly made investigative journalism cool again. https://t.co/nWXaFVhVsD pic.twitter.com/tjcdol3jfX

@amyharvard_ Hahaha. The irony. It burns. From lap dogs to watch dogs. Make sure the DNC says its OK.

@amyharvard_ That 8 year break journalism took is part of why Trump won. Speak truth to power no matter which party is in power.

In other words, do your jobs, media.
