Something was different today. They were reporting on mandates being lifted by provinces, what's going on with protests, and the vote on the Emergency Measures Act. I can't exactly pinpoint it specifically with cold, hard evidence, but it's extremely noticeable about the overall TONE. I heard it in the voices of the on-air hosts and reporters as well as the controlled "experts" being interviewed: the sound of people who know they are facing imminent defeat. The word DOOMING came to mind. This is the first time I've heard such tone in such a pervasive extent.
This tells me that they truly believed their own propaganda, but more importantly, it told me that We the People are prevailing ...
And they can barely hide it anymore!
Glorious!

Bear in mind that these media talking heads are like actors reading a script. They have their special "voices" for good news and bad news as defined by their masters writing the script. This was never more evident than during this pandemic. I knew it was crumbling when the tone changed. However, sometimes they get a jolt and real feelings creep in, as when Trump was elected in 2016. Which do you feel it was?
I believe it was subconscious. It was subtle. These types aren't capable of such subtlety, and even if they were, the intended audience would not be picking up on it, at least not consciously.
It's nice to see Occam's Razor used properly for once. 😆 Thanks, both of you for your insight.
