We don't know how swing voters behave. But we know many of them are open to grievance arguments. And campaigning against the media is a winning strategy, particularly in the Blue Wall.
(1) If it's a "strong" argument, by which I think you mean that it will be politically useful rather than that you yourself are persuaded by its logic, it will be "strong" whether or not Larry O'Donnell makes that mistake.

(2) That link says all sorts of interesting things, but I don't see that it anywhere says swing voters are open in grievance arguments. People who are animated by grievance are conservatives.
