Describing the media's support of the Obama administration (including the press and, yes, even selectively-censored internet forums/comments) as Orwellian is not an abuse of the term. The gatekeeping and one-sided coverage was so prevalent that I've seen plenty of folks try to describe him as "scandal-free" on his way out. Back during the campaign, we got a preview of just how much worse the narrative-pushing would have gotten under an HRC admin.
Trump and and plenty of conservatives are liars and buffons, but you don't get parlay that into "Our guys are good guys who tell the truth, because the press will never call them out!" Gamergate and a hundred other incidents exposed that game. Deal with it.
