Is this the same press corps that thinks it's normal when Trump rambles on about boats, batteries, Hannibal Lechter and whale windmill cancer?? It's shocking that they didn't notice.
This is so weird, DC press is failing, legacy media is Trump-lite and failing. Makes you wonder what other important events are overlooked by the media.
2/ the gets at a key issue that people don’t focus on. DC has huge numbers of reports, in numerical terms more than enough. But because of the current news economy they’re very focused on the apex of power. There are vastly fewer reporters who work for regional or local publications and …
People also fail to understand investigative journalism is expensive. News journalism and opinion/analysis are cost effective ways to fill columns. Profit margins at outlets are much thinner than in prior decades.
Sounds like an excellent opportunity for an intrepid young reporter to carve out a niche by starting up a substack or pitching a column or the like called “The Backbench” and have it be stories just focused on the forgotten and overlooked members of Congress. Lots of stories there, I’m sure.
Also doesn't help when wealthy Conservatives are hoovering up local stations and publications in order to turn them into bullhorns for their ideology...
Informative, but there are a few gratuitous jabs at Joe Biden, who never displayed any impairment that affected his performance. And if they’re going to knock Biden, they should mention t***p, whose name is missing. We all know t***p is crazy, but he’s also less articulate than he used to be.
I’m not a fan of age discrimination (because I’m old as dirt), but we can’t keep letting these impaired geriatric people have positions of power in the government. I’m talking about people in both parties. Especially in times like these, where critical decisions need to be made.
That’s what republicans do. Gaslighting, lie, neglecting the people. Why do we let this get by? Media your killing your self, don’t give in to trumps fascism.
The DC news is State run News it Trump propaganda. Thus every question posed to Democrats was are you going to vote to shutdown the government? When did the Democrats take charge of the Senate or the House Wolf Blitzer?
There’s no evidence that Joe Biden has ever been cognitively impaired. That jumped out at me two, as well as the one or two later mentions of the most successful president in recent history.
Now I know what happened to Todd Gillman. DMN today is a shell of what it was ten years ago. I don't understand why MOC are not required to show unbiased medical report about their mental fitness for the job, same for POTUS & V.P. Business world would not tolerate it,why should the electorate?

Scribes don’t have the bandwidth to develop relationships with the staff who actually know what’s up.
Mediocre thinking.
