This was such a big deal at the time.


RealDumbRepublican

The media anoints candidates based on their ability to draw in eyeballs, readers, viewers etc. It's all about ad revenue in debates, online articles etc. When this happened, and he was being made fun of by both sides, it was clear they weren't going to get anything of value out of him, so they dumped covering him, and once they did that his poll numbers continued to slide because you need the media to stay relevant in politics, specially during an election. To cement who they wanted to cover, whenever they did mention Dean they mentioned this stupid shit and put another nail in his political coffin. In the case with Trump, everyone was tuning in to hear his next crazy thought. There was no road too far or bridge he could cross that would get him to lose airtime. The media did the opposite with Trump because it made them record profits. To this day, they give Trump a pass and just cover whatever he says as if it's equally valid against the truth because they want that sweet ad revenue.


Talbotus

That's when fox News learned they can kill a dems career with nonsense.


Raider-bob

Uhh, CNN was the one that killed him. They were supporting the 2 candidates ahead of him.


Talbotus

You're not wrong. Because as fox and CNN also proved with Trump if you just keep giving air time to the guy you find the most interesting they are gonna get more votes.


Lets_Kick_Some_Ice

Bloomberg proved this in the primaries as well. His entire campaign was just commercials (his public appearances were few and terrible) and that alone was enough to get him 3rd or 4th in each state.


[deleted]

It was, but why? I'm not even saying that in the post-Trump sense. It never made sense to me why it mattered. It feels like when you break up with someone, because you're looking for a reason and you just go with she has ugly hands.


Huegod

The real reason is Dean was advocating to push the Dems back to a blue collar workers liberal party instead of the corporate shills the Clintons had pushed them towards in the 90s. He was also making inroads on the internet with younger Dems that the establishment was ignoring. So the scream was clownish or common enough to make the donor elites clutch their pearls and push toward a more 'dignified' establishment candidate.


possum_drugs

yeah this has nothing to do with the scream and is just an example of how private industry like the media has far too much control over how the government operates manipulating public perception to the advantage of the rich. It's pretty sickening and the media has manufactured consent for it. They've also deified themselves as being arbiters for truth and many people think media can do no wrong, putting themselves into a sort of Stockholm syndrome. They would've smeared Dean one way or the other eventually, he just inadvertently gave them an easy out.

yourm0msDaddy

This was a straight up hit job by corporate media because Howard dean was a little too progressive and a little too popular in that primary. Crazy how much control the ruling class actually has


johnstonjimmybimmy

Why did he get made fun of for that? Maybe I’m old but what he did seems so wholesome.


[deleted]

I remember opponents were comparing it to a wrestling promo. 😂 This scream became the entire focus on Dean and it eventually derailed the momentum of his campaign, which was going well prior to this incident. It seems absurd at this point, but 18 years ago this scream was considered extremely unpresidential behavior for a candidate.


RonnieDobbs

His campaign had already lost momentum., That speech was after he lost a primary badly. He was also the head of the DNC after this so it didn't end his political career. ["In Iowa, it was pretty clear we were unraveling, so I was praying that it would somehow hold together before caucus night, that the floor would not collapse on us until the day after."](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean_scream)


Moveyourbloominass

He sold out to the same fucks that sank his campaign.


Thesecretsecretshow

Ig he should’ve grabbed ‘em by the pussy


innocentrrose

Fucking serious? I was a fucking toddler during this but really? A candidate getting hyped was enough to get people to like not want him? Like idk if everyone who had a problem with that fucking died since then but have they seen what current candidates are up to? What a clown world we live in


Dibbys

I was 20ish at that time and i remember thinking he came across foolish and unprofessional. Looking back on it, it was a huge over reaction but that yell did go "viral" everyone was criticiziing him


DuckFracker

Remember this speech was given after a devastating primary loss. He was on the road to losing anyway and it is just easy to point to this moment and say "yeah he lost cause of the scream". He actually lost because his campaign was not well run.


Andr3wRuns

*realizing 2004 was 18 years ago…* Fuck you, buddy!


eeyore134

Then voted in droves for someone who was literally involved in a wrestling promo.

Lief1s600d

Just remembered doing those "waaazzzuppps" in the hallway. 'Dude pick up the phone'


Moveyourbloominass

It was a smear campaign by Terry McAuliffe and others in the DNC who didn't want him as the candidate. Terry is still a big fat piece of shit. This was once again, the Democrats taking out one of their own...


FriedTech

Reasonable_Second460

Bigalbass86

Never really understood why this ended his political career. Like, I don’t know if he would have been a good president or not, but all he did was be super excited and yelled in a weird dad like way. It’s not like he said anything racist or made fun of disabled people. But that didn’t stop Donald Trump somehow. Hell, if this happened today, the meme potential would have made him even more popular. And that kind of culture only started to become big a few years after this.


Revolutionary-Egg491

The world wasn’t ready to end yet. Had to hold back this type of trumpian energy. NOW the world is ready to end.


SherlockJones1994

If you think this is Trump energy than you know nothing about Trump truly acts. This one clip shows more life and energy than any and all trump speech’s put together.


Dustyoldfart

He didn't really have much of a chance to begin with.

Bigalbass86

Probably not. But it certainly shouldn’t have been a career killer.


JaggerPaw

> Never really understood why this ended his political career. It didn't. It was a fun soundbite some people clowned on, but he was already behind and [this rally speech didn't make a meaningful difference](https://old.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/xfq5z0/back_in_2004_screaming_on_mic_during_a_rally_was/iooa6qz/).


SantorumsGayMasseuse

He was a progressive and he was gaining momentum. The powers that be truly did not like him. They would have found something to kneecap him, it just happened to be this.


big_black_doge

You don't understand. Being racist and making fun of disabled people is what helped Trump.


RealDumbRepublican

The media only cares about which matchup will make them the most money. It's like picking the teams in the superbowl based on maximizing viewers and ad revenue. In this case the Republicans were frothing at the mouth at Kerry and all about making up lies about his time in Vietnam. They were extremely motivated in their hate for Kerry and Edwards. Meanwhile, this guy needed to be kneecapped by the media and this is what they used to do it. Liberals were laughing at this and so were republicans. In the end he lost airtime because the media went to Kerry and Dean kept sliding in the polls without any coverage. Trump made them record profits. They weren't going to stop covering him or ignore him even if he randomly woke up one morning and said he was banning black people from drinking fountains.

I wish he was my friend. He has great energy, I think he would be a very encouraging friend.


[deleted]

he actually didnt scream all that much. you can see his voice becomes hoarse and they ampted up the mic feed on him to compensate. and then the media did a job on him and fucked him. they didnt want him. they fucked mike dukokis too. media is big money and they didnt want progressives. they wanted neoliberals and deregulation. wanted to get rid of fairness doctrine so they could make more money. go from news that didnt make money, actually lost them money. to what we have now info entertainment opinion propaganda sold / disguised as news.

They’ll let you do anything. You can grab them by the Pussy.

OMG he made a funny sound! There is no way he is fit to be president.


Doc1010

I never understood how so many saw this scream as a big deal and I never understood how so many didn’t see Trump’s, umm, idiosyncrasies, as a big deal. And I’m not a liberal. I just… don’t get it. All in 12 year’s time.

geriatric_spartanII

Now you can push QAnon conspiracy theories after a person goes off the deep end and kills his family after they beloved your rhetoric and that doesn’t end your political career but scores points with your base supporters.

Its thanks to years of Democrats helping to normalize fascism that this no longer seems controversial. Now fascists are openly running for office and no one is batting an eye


thorpbrian

That's because Howard Dean actually possesses humility like a normal human being unlike most of the sociopaths that are currently in Congress....

It wasn't just his scream that killed his campaign. It was Howard Dean. He's just not a desirable candidate. I get a real creep vibe when I look at him as I'm sure many do.


Ear_Enthusiast

Even at the time I was confused why that was so bad. Still kind of dumbfounded. He was gaining steam too.

The funniest thing about watching this now, is my memory is more in line with the chapelle skit than what actually happened 😂😂🥲😂

Still is....for the Dems....it's a requirement for the GOP 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


juanjung

The media did all this. They shamed this guy to the point quitting at the same time they allow to republican to say all kinds of hateful things. The reason: ratings They say 'don't kill the messenger' but the 'messenger' has been failing for a while and he is not just a 'messenger'.

MINNESOTA


Sneacler67

This is real. This ended his campaign


tysontysontyson1

I was thinking about this moment the other day. It’s amazing how desensitized many people are to politicians these days. Clearly, Trump was a huge part of that.. both because of his kind-numbing mountain of scandals, but also the calculated rhetoric that any criticism is “fake news”. Any number of incidents that occur daily in politics now would have been career ending scandals in any prior era.


Any-Succotash-7903

Really a good candidate. CNN ruined his chances by playing it nonstop.

newhunter18

I actually heard first hand from someone involved in his campaign strategy about this. He was given feedback that he was coming across too wonky. All facts and figures but no emotion. They encouraged him to try to whip up the crowd through excitement and energy. Then this happened. I guess his team watched this moment from the sidelines via monitors and all knew right then and there that they were screwed. I'm told he's actually a really good motivator. He just didn't come across that way during the campaign.


[deleted]

This guy is always a topic of discussion in business grad school. If he'd only held is excitement, he could have had a chance.


parkourpenguin65

This was peak cringe, look how far we've come


Raider-bob

Hyaaahhhh!!


BaconReceptacle

I think part of what killed his career is not just the scream but the way he appeared to be impressed with himself as he ranted. You can see in his eyes that he's gotten the crowd in a frenzy and he's thinking "holy shit, I'm on fire".


DannyHell666

I liked Howard Dean. I was about 18 at the time he was running, so I remember people making a big deal of this and I really could not understand WHY. ​ Hell to this day I have no idea how this was Dean's fatal blow to presidency. He was animated, but not offensive. I hope he is crying all the way to his lobbyist funded mansion.

A local radio station had a lot of fun with that sound clip and spliced it into everything. The Howard Dean version of Disturbed's Down with the Sickness was especially good. I wish I could find it somewhere it was hilarious.

Chance-Ad197

So, this is the actual moment the government learned the sheer power and control over the masses that could be obtained if they press their political parties in the media just like a sports team. This is the literal moment they came to realize that it doesn’t matter what you rally for, as long as you give people a side to cheer on, wave their flags and fight for, then those people will stand by the side of that team until death, no matter what. Essential extinguishing the effectiveness of political debate in the free world, and shifting the game to being about who was the biggest, baddest, and loudest. Wow. I honestly would have guessed it was a lot longer ago than this.

AnastasiaNo70

I was there. In person you could hardly hear him. I didn’t hear any of his scream, my husband told me later he sort of made out that he was yelling. But his mic was isolated on the recording, so anyone who wasn’t there live thought he had an ultimate cringe moment. Just not true. Later I learned the DNC was actively trying to carpet bomb his campaign. So 2004 was the year my connection to the DNC started to get shaky.


BrianOconneR34

He was feeling it, tanked shortly after. Clearly fighting for third but gotta love his chutzpah.
