In the U.S., the Republicans have very little support in the MSM (Fox News, and that’s about it), while the Democrats dominate. But Trump doesn’t care about the NYT, NBC news, CNN, etc., because the American right dominates the online media space. That’s the strategy the CPC are taking under Poilievre. To his base, the MSM are the enemy.

I'm not sure I'd believe that to be their point of view, and if it is, it's kinda silly considering how much swing has occurred over the past two months. It should be pretty obvious a lot of votes are in play. Catering to fringe media only does one thing, make their granite base even more solid.
