Media takes serious hit from Mueller conclusions.

This is a good piece from Jonathan Easley in The Hill, and I'm going to refer to it when I tape my Right Angle segment with Bill Whittle and Scott Ott later today.

Here's the gist:

For the past two years, the media has focused exhaustively on the question of whether President Trump and those closest to him illegally coordinated with Russia to steal the election.
The breathless coverage amplified the sense that Trump and some of his family members would go down for crimes, yet in the end, Mueller reported that he found no evidence of a conspiracy.
Conservatives and some liberals say there should be a reckoning.

It isn't just the news media, either. The entertainment industry's leading lights (I'm using the term ironically) fell hard for it, too. Breitbart's Justin Caruso has a story up today, "50 Hollywood Stars Who Accused Trump of Treason, Collusion with Russia." With as much time as work requires me to spend reading Twitter, it's easy to conclude that Caruso stopped at 50 only because of space limitations.

So here's the question: What do they do now? Is the Democrat-Media Complex such an intertwined beast that no reform is possible, even after this week's humiliation? Is there no one on the left -- other than the marginally attached Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi -- willing to call out two years of mistakes, and insist on doing better in the future?

Or is it going to be another two-to-six years of ORANGE MAN BAD from an infotainment industry hellbent on self-destruction?

It's my sad opinion that there's no hope for reform, but what's your take?
