It’s called “Crooked Media“.

Tommy Vietor, Jon Favreau and Jon Lovett, who served as spokespeople and speechwriters for Obama, say the site’s aim is to go around traditional media to reach millennial Democrats.

“I think the lesson for [Democrats] is that if you’re solely filtering your message through the media, you’ve already lost,” Vietor told Time magazine. “[Trump] has Breitbart and Twitter and he’ll just swamp you. We need to do a better job of connecting directly and activating people.”

The name itself is pulled from Trump’s own words — he frequently bashes news outlets, reporters, and the media in general.

    Crooked Media vs The Deplorables.

    It would sound like a company intra-mural touch football game if the stakes weren’t so high..

    I think the aim ought to be going to national television network.
    Because IMO, it now appears to me that money talks and bullsh*t… works
    In puss*y grabbing America.

    crooked media ( if its good enough ) might find out why the DNC didn’t make a clean sweep in the election.

    splitting hairs on popular vote VS electoral college needs to be a thing of the past !
