He's not following the script we have for events like this. He's supposed to have a bunch of unhinged weird beliefs in a long rambling manifesto that we can all gawk at.
I think you're right about the Murdochs but a lot of the liberal media was just fine with boosting Trump's message and he calls them the enemy of the people and fantasizes about violence done to them.
I don't understand what the false equivalency is here. I was pointing out that media doesn't seem to have scruples if it's a message that their audience is interested in. Murdoch had Fox run all those segments about voting machine conspiracy theories and was even anxious about the legal liability of them in those texts and emails that were released. He had them push on because they were losing market share to Fox's even nuttier competitors like Newsmaxx. Corporate liberal media continues to boost Trump's signal, giving him billions in free airtime in 2016, 2020, and 2024. They even sane wash his word salad because their viewers want the story to make sense.
