TRUMP WON BECAUSE
MAINSTREAM NEWS FAILED

... has been failing for many years

by Enver Masud

All systems (electrical, mechanical, biological, social) need effective feedback (engineers refer to it as negative feedback).

In society, feedback is the news media's job.

To competent systems engineers or management consultants it should be evident that American society's feedback loop is seriously deficient.

Without effective feedback systems become unstable.

Dissatisfaction with the status quo cannot be corrected without effective feedback.

With effective feedback we would likely have better leaders in Congress and the White House.
