Media Bias In The Trump Presidency And The Extinction Of The Conservative Millennial: How The Mainstream Media Stole A Generation Of Voters (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798655722811)

According to the Washington Post, only seven percent of journalists identify as Conservative or as Republicans. This disparity has had an adverse impact on Conservative principles, figures, and ideologies. Since President Trump's inauguration, the mainstream media has published an increasingly larger number of false or erroneous stories pertaining to the President and his supporters. Some of the most prominent news stories, including the media's reporting of actor Jussie Smollett's hate crime hoax, the sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and the vilification of the Covington Catholic students, has helped erode the public's faith in the media to fairly and accurately report the news. Fewer Millennials are likely to identify as conservative or vote for Republican candidates. Core values and ideologies of Conservatism have suffered irreputable damage as a result of explicit and intentional bias that is prevalent in mainstream media outlets, including the New York Times, Washington Post, CBS, NBC, ABC and CNN. The political agenda of the mainstream media has had an adverse effect on the Conservative party, especially with younger cohorts. Millennials, particularly those with college degrees, are far more likely to identify as left wing or liberal and are more likely to vote for Democrats than to identify as Conservative and vote for Republican candidates. According to the Pew Research Center fifty seven percent of Millennials hold consistently liberal values, while just twelve percent hold consistently Conservative values. This is especially problematic for the Conservative party, since numerous studies indicate that Millennials surpassed Baby Boomers in 2019 as the largest class of voters. This book explores clear instances of implicit bias against Conservative principles, figures, ideologies, policies, and agendas across mainstream media outlets, and how Conservatives can combat the national media onslaught that has become so pervasive and prevalent in American society that the views of a small minority of coastal elites have become normalized. It also analyzes the political attitudes of Millennials and outline strategies, tactics, and messaging that Conservatives can use to appeal to this cohort in the 2020 presidential election and in future races. If the Conservative party wishes to continue winning elections, then Conservative thought leaders must counterpunch and pushback against clear biases that have become inculcated by the mainstream media.
