My colleague Steve Ross writes....

The nation's newspaper and broadcast stenographers, er, reporters have
decided that Democrats lost the presidential election by ignoring the needs
of rural America/ There has been a smattering of opinion pieces saying the
same thing, although not in-depth studies, put out by Brookings and other
august institutions. But in my corner of the world -- broadband deployment
-- I see mainly Republicans obstructing Democrats. And as I have been
reporting for two years,  lack of broadband access in rural areas is
responsible for at least a quarter and probably more than half of all rural
population loss since 2010. Here's my opinion piece on this, just up at
Broadband Communities Magazine.
