major US newspapers couldn’t stop demanding Clinton resign during Lewinsky scandal. today re: Trump???.....it’s crickets; dailykos.com/story/2019/1/1…
this is an almost mind-boggling double standard US media use for Dems vs GOP
sorry media, nobody gets a free pass in the Trump era.

either stand up and be heard, or consider yourself part of the problem;

lots of journalists pushing Let’s Wait re: Trump reporting aft Buzzfeed.I’m all for if that’s universal rule used by all journalists all time. but I can think of 5-10 stories last few yrs that targeted Dems, weren’t true, and virtually nobody waited to see if they were true.
I’m thinking specifically abt 18 months of horseshit Clinton Foundation coverage, 2015-2016.
folks, getting hit pieces wrong abt Clintons didn’t get you fired, it got you *promoted*

Totally disagree.
I mean the idea that if every story isn’t 100% accurate means journalism is doomed strikes me as a very strange measuring stick. journalism isn’t an exact science. there’s push and pull over time. the key is that people are accountable
and good grief where was the hand ringing when anti-Clinton gotcha stories in 2016 imploded?

Dem messaging? every poll taken shows Americans blame Trump/GOP for shutdown. but I guess they have great messaging....
what’s unfolding is a colossal, lopsided GOP loss. so press warns Dems they’re losing
this narrative only works if you *still* cling to myth that Trump’s a media master playing 3D chess—honestly didn’t think that was still a thing
