The 2016 presidential election has been one for the history books, especially due to the stunning rise of Donald Trump. But it shouldn’t be that surprising. In this new guide to bipartisan communications in the age of celebrity, Don Surber shows how the media endeavored, and failed, to paint Trump as the unlikeliest candidate.

Political writers, observers, and journalism students everywhere should read this in-depth examination of the media’s irresponsible and unethical portrayal of Trump as the dark horse in the race to the White House.

The media’s failure to understand the reasons for Trump’s popularity reflects a disease that has infected institutions of journalism across the country. With wit and humor, Surber presents research from more than one hundred sources about the truth behind Trump’s amazing success story and the American need for a man we can all believe in.

Trump the Press is a wake-up call for these journalists and pundits to finally listen to the American people. We’ve made our choice.
