So, What to Think Now of Pollsters and Analysts

All the MSM got the election wrong with the exception of the LA Times, arguably against Trump. I saw anywhere from 4-10 pts. up for HRC over the past week. What gives? Can any MSM be trusted? Why were they so wrong? One reason I read/heard is that the MSM did not want to pay for registered voter records...for polling, they would conduct random phone calls and hope to hit a registered voter. IDK.

wrong with brexit, dead wrong with the Canadian election last year, and now Trump. Seems pretty clear the polls just aren't accurate or useful

Makes you think the MSM was in cahoots with the dems to suppress the red vote due the false narrative of an HRC land slide.

No it makes me think the whole thing is a song and dance routine to distract from what matters.
