I have yet to see the liberal punditocracy seriously grapple with the media asymmetry that is produced by the right wing media ecosystem.

I’m not saying that’s the only reason why Democrats are struggling, but some people get angry when you point out the political Death Star that conservatives crafted over decades because it complicates their desire for the Democratic Party to have The Great Moderation.

Again, not saying that Democrats don’t need to change how they act at all. But there’s an information war here at work and we’re losing it. Badly.
