Media Outlet Forming New Network
Nothing says man of the people quite like a bunch of Democratic billionaires and media elites huddling in a swanky D.C. conference room, sipping organic lattes, and wringing their hands over why their propaganda machine failed them in 2024.
But that’s exactly what happened at The Wharf, where George Soros’s money men, executives from Crooked Media (aka the Obama Bro Club), and assorted left-wing influencers gathered to figure out why they couldn’t spin their way out of an embarrassing election cycle.
According to Semafor, these liberal kingmakers spent their time workshopping new messaging tactics, diving into short- and long-form video strategies, and even taking advice from the people behind Soros Fund Management on how to acquire more media companies. Because when the message isn’t working, the answer is obviously to just buy more media outlets. Funny how that works.
And if that wasn’t enough, the Democratic elites also brought in Brian Tyler Cohen, a YouTuber and MSNBC personality, to school them on “new media.” Apparently, Senate and House Democrats needed a tutorial on how often to post and what equipment to use—because nothing screams cutting-edge like politicians taking social media lessons from a guy who spends his days ranting about Republicans on YouTube.
Cohen even pointed to Elon Musk as an example of effective online engagement. Which is hilarious, considering the Left has spent the last few years screaming about Musk “destroying democracy” for daring to open up Twitter to free speech. But now he’s a role model? Interesting.
What’s truly entertaining is that Democrats are only now realizing that they completely lost control of non-traditional media in 2024. While Biden and Harris sat down for a handful of stiff, awkward interviews with influencers like Call Her Daddy, Trump and his team embraced the online world in a way Democrats simply couldn’t.
Trump and J.D. Vance didn’t just show up on mainstream news networks—they popped up on podcasts with Logan Paul, Tim Dillon, Theo Von, and even pro golfer Bryson DeChambeau. They went directly to where younger voters are, spoke their language, and let loose in an environment where they weren’t filtered through a legacy media spin machine.
Meanwhile, Democrats were still operating like it was 2012, assuming their old strategies would keep working. They thought they could rely on The New York Times and CNN to shape public opinion while ignoring the fact that younger voters don’t get their news from the same tired talking heads on cable television.
So now, after getting outmaneuvered, they’re scrambling to catch up—hosting billionaire brainstorming sessions, studying how to go viral, and quietly panicking that their monopoly on the media narrative is slipping through their fingers.
And here’s the best part: no matter how many media outlets Soros & Co. try to buy, they can’t manufacture authenticity. People don’t want robotic, over-rehearsed talking points—they want real, unscripted conversations. Trump understands this. The GOP understands this. And until Democrats figure that out, they can workshop their messaging all they want—it still won’t save them from themselves.
