A topic of constant debate today is the Media, and whether or not it can maintain the roll of unbiased observer and messenger. In the 2016 Presidential Campaign, the constant draw of media attention on candidates brought to the surface media bias and sensationalist reporting. The Media became a positive feedback loop in concert with the celebrity and sensationalist events of the campaigns. In this video, I focused on then-candidate Trump, and the media backlash to seemingly every action he took. This reaction from the media grew and grew with each new scandal or gaffe, generating more and more attention and more and more motive for Trump to perform similar actions. This ultimately played a major factor in the election, with the Media being responsible for the inflated attention on the candidates.
