How the liberal media dominance is cracking and the Left is losing what is left of their minds over that fact.

David Ellison's purchase of CBS and his plans to expand with a purchase of Warner Brothers and with it the moribund CNN has the left's head swiveling around like Regan's in the movie The Exorcist.

For fifty years, and actually more like a hundred, the Democrats and the Left have owned the media completely and only now are they starting to lose their grip. They have twisted and distorted the American landscape for decades by their control of the dissemination of information and what they choose to report - and how - and what they choose to not report at all. Lose that and the American People will quickly return to being American.

I've long analogized it to a river under flood control; the Left has built a series of dams and levees to control the river, and often even change it's course into a more agreeable direction. But it's artificial and one good storm can often bust the levee, overrun the dams, and return the river to it's natural course.

The land itself has a course for that river; we force it through labor to artificially flow where it would not. Crack a few levees and the river just goes back to where it belonged in the first place.

That is what the Left does; creates narratives, reinforces those narratives with simple slogans and tireless repetition, and the public goes along because it's the easiest course of action for them. But break those informational levees and the American mind will flow back to it's original course, because it was Nature and Nature's God that set that course in the first place.

Liberalism is a denial of reality and a denial of Truth. Without control of what people see and hear they lose control of what they think, and what they think will inevitably return to reality and not the artificial construct made by the Left.

So this is a most welcome development. First we had the internet and cable news, which, like water, got under the pavement and cracks began to form. The Left took control of the internet by controlling search engines and social media but they couldn't fully repress the information put out here (not for lack of trying; The Aviary had a very respectable ranking as websites go but is now somewhere around four millionth, making it lilliputian. That was a function of Google making changes to their algorithms to crowd out the smaller but influential sites online. Another victim was the Gateway Pundit, which was a monster until they pulled this on them and blocked TGP from Google searches.)

At any rate the cracks are appearing in the vast leftist media empire and they are running scared. What is needed now is for more conservative billionaires to buy more media, and to put strings on grants to universities and otherwise manipulate them, to force them to just offer some balance.

The counter-revolution has begun. We can win it but we have to be aggressive and we have to be careful. More often than not counter-revolutions fail for the same reason that the original revolution succeeded; the original leadership was weak and vacillating and did not know how to fight back.

Trump has shown the way to fight back. Now it's up to us.
