Post SC Subdued Media Has Reached "Peak Trump" Can They Recover Relevance?

The tenor of the media's post South Carolina GOP primary analysis has been relatively subdued. "Relatively" is of course the operative word when canvassing the MSM's Trump reporting but long term media followers will have noted a less frenzied coverage post South Carolina.

There are still the "It's not over till it's over" and "Our fight continues" John Fund  and the NRO board's articles as they battle on their lonely dogmatic battle. Fund takes his solace in his observation that "Trump is out of luck because many primary states coming up are southern." 

Bad luck for Fund that substantial numbers of observers advise that is exactly the best luck for Trump (he leads in early all upcoming states.

The fact is most of the, surprisingly small number of analytical articles are subdued, positive for Trump in a way not seen before i.e. accepting that he is absolutely the front runner with the best path to the nomination e.g

ABC NEWS
ANALYSIS: Donald Trump Takes Ownership of Republican Party

Jonathan Chait / New York Magazine: 
The party decided in South Carolina.  Nobody cared.

David Lightman / McClatchy Washington Bureau:

Trump poised to step on the GOP accelerator  —

NEW YORK TIMES
The Party of Bush Yields, Warily, to a New Face: Donald Trump

It is noticeable that this small and representative selection I believe, comes from the center and left and is devoid for the most part of the previous hate frenzy "Trump is a showman, has no chance, will fade" and etc.

What has happened is the media has shot their bolt and realize that all their hyperbole in the face of what anyone with any degree of independent thinking could see as obvious has damaged them severely. 

Further there is, they understand surely, no calumny no satire no sarcasm no pounced upon supposed "Trump gaffe" that they can present that will do him any harm whatsoever (in fact the more they do that the stronger he grows).

The polling companies in the service of this willfully blind endeavor e.g. WSJ/NBC/Marist  are beyond salvation, and the quicker they are dropped by the media the better for everyone.

 If, as this new round of analysis appears to show, the media returns to the traditional role of factual analysis instead of being outright propaganda they will begin to pick themselves of the floor.

The media started their own descent into irrelevance by their immediate outlandish, snobbish hateful attacks on Trump (and of course Palin from 2008 and without let-up to today) it will be up to them, the incorrigible elitists like David Brooks, Bill Kristol, Dana Milbank to name a few excepted, to move on from gross partisanship and to recover a degree of dignity and trust.

My Blog "M.Joseph Sheppard's A Point Of View"

is a conservative orientated site which, along with my Palin specific site, has had over 1,250,000 views. It is a growing force for Trump/Palin and general news analysis and original articles. I have been writing since 2008 and have built up a substantial following including over 1,600 (genuine) Twitter followers who readily interact.

I have been published at American Thinker, American Journal and numerous conservative sites such as Conservative Treehouse and Bob Belvedere's "The Camp of the Saints." I am linked at Robert Stacy McCain's site "The Other McCain"and "Legal Insurrection." There is a wealth of past articles from me which a Google search will provide.

The media, and especially the blogosphere, is dominated by "progressive" leftist sites and there is a pressing need for strong, rational and in-depth conservative writing to counter this. 

With perhaps the most important election in decades coming up I would like to add my voice to this need. But it needs to have a professional presentation to effectively counter the sites backed by big corporates and donors like Soros.

I wish to have my site professionally made over (to become a web site) and estimate it would take $5000 (any support small or large would assist) to promote it and make it competitive with the likes of Salon/Daily Beast etc. Please review my writings and Tweets and if it meets your standards your assistance would be appreciated.

 If this is successful I will dedicate myself to tirelessly support the populist, pro-life,Christian values. conservative cause as exemplified by Donald Trump, Governor Palin and the basic thrust of the Tea Party.

Since we are at a crucial stage of the election period I would wish to commence this site transition within a month. If you would wish to support the concept of a hard hitting site that stands up for your values here is the support link.
