Certain media outlets are going out of their way to help Elizabeth Warren. This was perfectly clear during the last Democrat debate, moderated by CNN.
What these media folks don’t seem to realize is that they’re not doing her any favors.
The more people see them trying to engineer a win for her, the more they will reject her.

The more the media try to help Elizabeth Warren, the more voters reject her
As the media’s preferred candidate in the 2020 Democratic primary, Sen. Elizabeth Warren has enjoyed an enormous amount of softball coverage.
Yet, the harder journalists work to win her the nomination, the worse her chances seem to become.
Warren launched her 2020 candidacy amid what should have been a much bigger scandal. Her false claim of Native American heritage only received the coverage it deserved after she announced a DNA test showing she was somewhere between 1/64th and 1/1,024th Native American.

Reporters have also worked hard to shield Warren from similarly legitimate questions about whether her astronomically expensive Medicare for All proposal would raise taxes on the middle class.

Yet, despite the media’s heroic efforts, Warren’s candidacy is in free fall, down 10.6 points from a high of 26.2% in July, according to the RealClearPolitics average. Her fundraising numbers are down, and she has quietly stopped talking about Medicare for All on the campaign trail.
She has dropped 3 points in Iowa since last week.

Expect her numbers to continue going down.
Especially if the media keeps trying to prop her up.
