We’re friends of people... Unless you have 12 year old tweets, a Facebook group, make gifs on reddit, make memes or funny videos anonymously or are a plumber or rodeo clown...
Journalists being alerted to the Baghdadi raid kind of pokes holes in the dumb “Why wasn’t Schiff or Pelosi told beforehand but Russia was ermmuhgerd!!!1!” talking point that (drumroll)... journalists started.

Man, @KatieHill4CA current twitter feed is a better lesson in media bias then I could ever hope to accomplish in 11 years of being on Twitter. Go check it out.
She's literally retweeting mainstream media press making the case that AKSHULLY she's the victim here. It's breathtaking.
CNN, USA Today, Buzzfeed, MSNBC.. Man it's great.. It's like a 4th of July fireworks display of media hackery.

Who is shocked that Darcy/Stelter are taking the side of the Democrat Congress member who resigned because she was facing an ethics investigation, and not the conservative reporter who broke the story. Laughable frauds.. beyond laughable
2011 Oliver Darcy would like a word with 2019 @oliverdarcy
@brianstelter Guessing the Red State reporter who spawned an ethics investigation won't be on your show this weekend because they aren't talking shit about their employer?

News: The Biden campaign has sent a letter to NYT exec editor Dean Baquet excoriating the newspaper.

The Biden campaign says NYT has "had an outsized hand in the spread" of the "baseless conspiracy theory" that Biden abused his office for his son.

Here's the letter Biden deputy campaign manager @KBeds sent NYT editor Dean Baquet. "Are you truly blind to what you got wrong in 2016, or are you deliberately continuing policies that distort reality for the sake of controversy and the clicks...?" mailchi.mp/cnn/rs-oct-9-2…
A @nytimes spox pushed back on Biden camp, saying, "Our coverage of the Biden campaign and Hunter Biden has been fair and accurate." mailchi.mp/cnn/rs-oct-9-2…

A thing reporters could do given that Donald Trump is lashing out at Rep. Elijah Cummings over his "radical oversight" is spend some time on what he's actually been investigating. oversight.house.gov/news/press-rel…
Here's a useful write-up from ABC, which includes Trump administration officials engaging in what I recall is the absolute worst and most newsworthy thing they could possible do. abcnews.go.com/Politics/house…
Of course, one way to generate media attention for your investigations is to actually do press events about them, particularly when you have become a figure of interest for other reasons.

1/ I'm stunned, but not surprised by AT&T's decision to extended their #Friends licensing deal with Netflix through 2019. A perfect example of, despite saying they were committed to winning in SVOD, Big Media wants to have their cake, eat it to - and then hope they get a 3rd cake
2/ #Friends is one of Netflix's most valuable titles. It's one of the most celebrated sitcoms, one of Netflix's most popular series, and has a whopping 236 episodes of tonnage - and a fervent fanbase
3/ AT&T could (and should) have simply moved #Friends to HBO, their leading SVOD asset. Imagine the impact on customer acquisition - all of a sudden the press coverage inundates all Friends fans to get HBO, if they haven't already!

No words. "an interest group that Facebook pegged at 168,000 users large and defined as *people who have expressed an interest or like pages related to White genocide conspiracy theory*” theintercept.com/2018/11/02/fac…
Once you read it, consider this: "The paid promotion was approved by Facebook’s advertising wing. After we contacted the company for comment, Facebook promptly deleted the targeting category, apologized, and said it should have never existed in the first place."
advertisers should consider the implications here if Facebook is able to stuff this interest category with 168,000+ people. Always brings up serious questions around Facebook's algorithmically generated interest groups for micro-targeting.

Chatted with @brianstelter about covering racists:

-Every time a white supremacist agrees to talk, they're trying to weaponize your media platform for recruitment

-If you print a white supremacist talking point in your newspaper, it doesn't refute or fact-check itself
More quick thoughts on the debate over how to cover white supremacists here: mailchi.mp/cnn/rs-august-…

And for the in-depth version of this conversation, featuring some of the best journalists who cover white supremacists, check out our @OntheMedia episode: wnycstudios.org/story/on-the-m…
Let me emphasize that second point: white supremacist ideas are not obviously wrong or transparently ridiculous.

Two Fox News commentators, Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham, have been echoing white nationalist rhetoric on their shows. Rep. Steve King has done this repeatedly.
