	Description:		Now that the prospect of President Trump has become a reality, how did the media get it wrong, with so many polls and predictions off the mark? Plus, we’ll look at the media winners and losers, with Breitbart planning a European expansion, while AT&T and Time Warner might not get the merger they want. And what about the role of social media? Was Facebook’s lack of editors to blame? Politico’s Hadas Gold will join us to talk about potential safety problems, and First Amendment issues, for reporters under a Trump administration. Our Metric of the Week is, of course, election metrics, and we talk with Alicia Shepard about election failings and the state of online discourse.
