The Media Could Easily Win This Election

The press is on the ballot.

The presidential race is essentially tied, so if there’s a small polling error here or there, the media could easily still emerge victorious.

The press has been such an active participant in the Trump–Harris race that it will be a significant defeat for it if Trump prevails and a marked victory if he comes up short.

“It’s The Sun Wot Won It” was the famous headline in the U.K. newspaper The Sun after its hostile coverage helped take down Neil Kinnock, the Labour candidate for prime minister, in 1992.

If Trump goes down, CNN could be forgiven for running a chyron, “It’s the most respected name in news wot won it.”
