Faux News corroded US democracy

What corroded democracy or in other words got Trump elected was that the US voters totally lost faith in the msg coming out of Faux News and similar examples of the old media. If you followed the polls it was going to be a slamdunk for Clinton. Trouble is, the people no longer believe your bullshit. Nothing to do with the Russians, nothing to do with fake posts on Facebook. That the US establishment has leaned on Chakrabarti to cop a plea is evidence enough of the kind of economic damage can be done to the Zuckerberg organization if they don't get in line. The news in America is bought-and-paid for by the likes of Murdoch. Do you think it any coincidence he's also trashing Facebook in his own organ.
