Long hours, little sleep, pizzas in the newsroom – all part of the election-night scene.
Some pundits are saying this unusual election marks the end of media influence on the electorate. 229 daily newspapers and 131 weekly newspapers endorsed Hillary Clinton. 9 daily papers and 4 weekly papers endorsed Donald Trump. That’s a 27-to-1 margin. But it’s not reflected in the last-minute polls.
This article also discusses electronic media coverage of the campaign. Well worth reading – if you have time on this busy day!
