I was wondering how Breitbart and Trump did so well. It makes sense now that it was not luck, but they had access to new "tech" in away. Fake news for them is kinda like how Obama was the first to used Twitter and other SM platforms to get connect with voters and get elected.

Reminds me of the quote ~ "it's artificial intelligence until you understand how it works. Then it's just algorithms"

You think the DNC didn't have something similar given how close Facebook and Google's leadership were with the Clinton campaign?
