We have a generation+ of students who were taught all essays should be compare and contrast. I took my first journalism course in the fall of 1976 with a professor named Monty Pitner who had been a reporter for WaPo. Having a complete lead paragraph, who, what, when, where, why and how were required

@brianstelter.bsky.social reposting this is rich.

Curtis Yarvin has been publicly telling us his plan for the techno autocracy since at least 2012.

Trump made the Project 2025 architect his campaign policy chair in 2024.

But you guys kept saying we were, to quote Brian, “hysterical.”

MSM combination of dunces, cowards and parent corps who see ONLY their financial bottom line and associated businesses and deals

American “journalism” is a pathetic disaster.
Corporate media is the furthest thing from journalism in our lifetime.

Lmao American journalism couldn't deal with fucking Joe Biden. Our press is a fucking joke

American journalism is not equipped to deal with the cloud of Orange stink, because the major news organizations have surrendered to the threats from this administration- without so much as a whimper…

But the attacks, screaming, insults etc, were daily with President Biden.

American press enabled his autocratic agenda with enthusiasm. Media has been all in on this guy since 2016. Now the competition seems to be to see who will gain dear leader's favors the most.

Between not allowing coverage by media who may ask serious questions and massive lawsuits against media he doesn’t like, he ensures the media only reports what he wants reported.

Well said. Most reporters are stenographers.

Indeed! Incredible that your colleagues STILL haven’t learned to look out for each other after a decade of abuse.

He needs the MSM more than you all need him. You need to stick together like the WSJ and Axios did. Start making up things like Fixed News does so it gets traction and overwhelms #StepfordPressSecretaryRobot and she has to report out the truth

I noticed Axios softening their coverage of Trump right after he announced he was running. They have traded truth for access for awhile now, same with Politico. Needless to say, I will stick with reporters & publications that are fearless truth tellers like HP, not propaganda pushers for Trump.

I mean, they didn't meet the moment 10 years ago so anyone who thinks they would at this stage isn't paying attention.
