52:03Now PlayingA major contributing factor to Trump's success in 2016 was his lovehate relationship with the mainstream media. Whether it was giving the thencandidate a disproportionate amount of free press, or an unwillingness to be critical in a misguided attempt to appear balanced, news agencies everywhere unwittingly aided and abetted the President's rise to power. Now journalist James Fallows () argues they have neither learned their lesson nor are they willing to be held accountable for their irresponsible behavior. Also, author Deborah Fallows () suggests that in remaining hyperfocused on the "sport" of national politics, little attention is ever given to the real needs and interests of communities outside urban coastal areas.
