In CNN's buildup to the Trump inauguration on Monday, anchor Jake Tapper uncorked a lecture about how five Big Tech executives in attendance “control so much of the information that we receive.”
Was that a warning? Or an expression of jealousy? The leftist media hate that the American people have gone around them for information, and they can’t help but bitterly complain that when Republicans win, people have chosen “misinformation” over the golden chalice of information that is CNN.
Tapper warned: "We‘re about to enter an era of deepfakes, and all sorts of misinformation and the degree to which those five gentlemen play a role or do not play a role, will be pivotal in terms of where the American people are four years from now, in terms of understanding what is true and what is false.” So he’ll judge the American people by how they vote.
