Part 2/7:
The recent outbursts on CNN are characterized as an attempt to confront and humiliate the network on-air, showcasing an empowerment among "normal people" who feel invigorated to speak out against perceived injustices, particularly those related to conservative viewpoints. The perception is that for a long time, dissenters to the dominant narratives were silenced or ridiculed, but the tide is changing.
To contextualize this shift, one must acknowledge the significant polarization in media representation. During the Biden administration, many conservatives felt their perspectives were marginalized and labeled as “mythical racism” whenever they dared articulate their views. However, with Trump’s re-emergence, there's a new confidence as individuals challenge CNN’s liberal narrative directly.
