When it comes to cable news panels, nobody does it better than CNN. But what makes a CNN panel so mind-numbingly good?

Step 1: Spirited debate. If the panelists can hear each other talk, you've already failed. #Journalisming
Step 2: Moderate in moderation. Your panel won't go off the rails without an anchor who's asleep at the wheel. #Journalisming
Step 3: Bomb throwers. Find panelists who are willing to start some shit. #Journalisming
Step 4: Embrace the chaos. Clip it up and post it on YouTube.

Don't waste time trying to "solve a crisis" or "educate the viewer." Produce a shitshow and watch those Pornhub numbers roll in. #Journalisming
There you have it. Staging a successful cable news panel is easy, if you know how to do journalism good, as @DesiLydic explains in the latest edition of #Journalisming: on.cc.com/2tAHWS7

1. The most interesting thing about Ben Shapiro (the only interesting thing about him) is his deep commitment to being ignorant. Some people don't have access to knowledge. But he went to UCLA & Harvard Law School. They have libraries. His ignorance is an (unconscious) choice.
2. This tweet of Shapiro's is a perfect distillation of his commitment to ignorance. Anyone with even the most mild curiosity about history knows that in-groups oppressing out-groups have almost universally seen the out-group as abnormally “dirty.”
3. American whites thought blacks were dirty. The British thought the Irish were dirty. The Nazis thought Jews and Roma were dirty. Straight people thought gay people were dirty. You will find this out at the libraries at UCLA and Harvard—if you’re interested in life on earth.

On early Tuesday evening, I was near Lafayette Square in downtown D.C. and about to head home, waiting for a Lyft. My coworker and I, both there on assignment, were sitting on the curb and talking when this van pulls up and stops way ahead of the stoplight. Too far, in fact.
The van looked like it was late-80s and beat to hell. Needed a wash. It was one of those heaps of junk that looks like it's a few breaths away from leaping into a compactor. It just wasn't cared for. Grody in spirit. A woman looked at me from the open passenger window. MAGA hat.
I couldn't see the driver, but I saw her, the passenger. She had thick glasses and gray, stringy hair, and, of course, the hat. And she was staring directly at me with a smirk. There wasn't anyone around us, and this van was maybe 20 ft. away. Staring straight at me.

@johnlapine @janesports @brianstelter @dangillmor Go up the thread. Read the article. The way the press has been covering these issues is insufficient. If you report the administration is lying, but lead with headlines that don't make it clear it's a lie up front, you're just amplifying the lie.
@johnlapine @janesports @brianstelter @dangillmor If you're giving a repeated platform for known liars to lie, with only intermittent checks on their lying, you're amplifying the lie.

If you're airing every single press briefing, where @PressSec rolls her eyes & answers nothing & disparages the press, you're amplifying the lie.
@johnlapine @janesports @brianstelter @dangillmor @PressSec If you're treating "but her emails" with the same ferocity and intensity as the myriad Trump scandals, ranging from the fraud perpetrated by his family foundation to Trump University to shortchanging contractors to mob ties to white supremacy, you're amplifying the lie.
