All publicity is good for Trump

Posted April 13, 2016 12:01 am

Agnes Kenton of Carol Stream's March 26 letter laments the way our MSM has been kissing Trump's ring.

What Ms. Kenton don't realize is that Trump means, huge profits for the media. He has become as popular as women's mud wrestling.

When Trump is on the tube, you can't change channels; even if you are not a fan, one has a difficult time turning away from the TV.

However, that does not change the fact that never in the history of American elections has all the media, TV, newspapers, opinion pieces, even letters to the editor, never since Lindbergh flew to Paris has one personality gotten such a free ride. There is an irony here. Trump is different because his political message does not fit most of the MSM's left leaning agenda. Trump was created by them and yet should he become POTUS, Trump would slap around even those that favored him with all that air time. It's true, there is not such thing as bad publicity.
