So far, the Conservative Victory Project remains in its initial stages, and it remains to be seen whether a similar effort will be launched focusing on House primaries. But the group’s emergence makes clear that the Republican establishment and its mega-donor supporters will no longer cede unlimited outside spending in Republican primaries to the far right of the party. Reporters should prepare to cover the money war to come.

A report from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism
Questions and exercises for journalism students.
One must always remember who the authors of pieces are. The Columbia school of journalism speaks for itself; they are NOT supporters of the Constitution, nor even of truth in journalism; years ago they cast their lot with the Marxist Leninist wing of the far left. So it is quite natural they detest the Constitution, and label its supporters as radical or far right.
It is unfortunate they have not studied history, and do not understand that none but the weakest of the toadies among them will escape the purge if the dictatorship for which they work assumes total power.
