RightwireInfluencing the election
We've heard a ton about the Russians, PAC's, and other groups who as supposed to have influenced the last Presidential Election. But the one group that seems to have ducked this scrutiny (other than Soros) is the media.
Has anyone else noticed, that even beyond the obvious leftist liberal tilt of all election reporting, that now the high lighting of text, screen backgrounds, and even the clothing of the reports is in the tone of blue used by the Democratic party?
So not only are they pushing left, covering lies, and pushing half truths, they are taking the subliminal path as well.

RightwireActually, it wasn't tongue in cheek. I noticed this watching a variety of news stories from various agencies on Youtube. It seemed like they felt the need to highlight key text, and the method chosen was a box in the blue tone that the Democratic party uses for all advertising. The text highlighted was always a key topic that the liberals are pushing.
The local news that I watch has always used a darker blue background for their stories, have forever it is their station colors so to speak. But in one piece on candidates in various races, the blue background changed to the same one used as highlighter in other agencies. The reporter was also wearing a solid blue tie of similar color.
What I saw was the media now jumping on the blue wave bandwagon and pushing that out clear and hard. Seems pretty clear that they are trying to influence the election directly by the constant anti-Trump/Republican/Conservative rhetoric but also by more subtle means.
