The items you bring up are outside the control of the DNC and its members. How can the DNC change media ownership or block Russian astroturfing?

The press is motivated both by its oligarchic owners and also by popularity. We can't change the former (certainly whole out of power), but we can make policy and targeting changes that make Democrats popular, and it follows that what the news reports will change.
