CNN’s Van Jones is finally realizing just how irrelevant the mainstream media have become.
In a post-election roundtable discussion for The New York Times, Jones said that the political and media class do not understand the role of digital media and its role in Donald Trump’s victory.
He explained:
The entire political class is way off. First of all, digital is a new door-knocking. You’ve got to understand that. We were laughing our butts off at Donald Trump for suspending his door-knocking campaign and letting Charlie Kirk and Elon do a bunch of stuff online. We said, these guys are idiots. These guys are stupid.
Then you start knocking on these doors. You know who people come to the door with? Their phone, in their hand. They’re in a 24-hour digital surround sound that has nothing to do with CNN. It has nothing to do with any stuff…
