2016 Postmortem

https://politicalwire.com/2016/10/27/live-trump-tower/"SNIP..............
Matt Bai explains how the Trump campaigns nightly news show on Facebook isnt only about reaching Trumps voter; its about consolidating his new consumer base, too, which he describes as the working-class consumer who watched his show and came to his rallies, who aspires to wealth but can never afford a room at the Trump International.
Trumps feed, streaming live from the war room in Trump Tower, is remarkable in that it self-consciously mimics everything about your conventional cable show. Theres lively banter between the hosts, a parade of genial guests who appear to have just dropped in, a platinum blond bomb-throwing commentator with no particular qualifications in anything. Theres breaking coverage of Trumps evening rally, perfectly timed to make air. It shows you, basically, how easy it is for any moron with a laptop and a dream to perfectly imitate the cheerful vacuousness of most TV news.
