I have no idea why press room keeps erupting in laughter during briefing on possible pandemic
I guarantee you that when Obama gave briefing on Ebola there weren’t laughs....pressrun.substack.com/p/the-press-cr…
now newsrooms will spend the night trying to figure out how they can present Trump’s utterly irrational briefing as being borderline coherent

btw, I’d argue it died in 2016.

So many Dem voters traumatized at how first woman nominee was treated , too nervous to go down that road again
more from me here; pressrun.media/p/how-the-medi…
"Electability can't be discussed honestly if journalists aren't going to address what they did to the last woman nominee, and how that spectacle likely not only shred the faith in the press for lots of Democrats, but it also damaged the idea that a woman can get a fair shake"

my latest — there's no GOP campaign attack that the DC press won't embrace; pressrun.media/p/warning-camp…
"It's important to recognize this pattern so Democrats aren't caught off-guard this year, or surprised when the press fails to highlight nuanced arguments in defense of the Democratic nominee."
if the press bludgeoned Dem nominees over running an A-rated global charity, and winning medals in Vietnam, there's nothing that's out of bounds.

btw, this was the NYT's Biden-is-doomed-on-Super-Tuesday front-page piece from last week; nytimes.com/2020/02/26/us/…
press has been covering this campaign for 10 months and had *no idea* what would happen Tuesday.

i only say that to caution folks from embracing media's campaign narratives
ha, and yes, i'm just going keep re-posting this piece i did three weeks ago....pressrun.media/p/is-the-press…

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn President Trump’s D.C. hotel had so many customers at a networking event for lobbyists last night, that when the hotel's boss went to boast about his “#success” on Twitter, panorama mode was required to show all the patrons.

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn Russian-funded RT America personalities celebrated “great things” at the Trump Hotel DC. It’s unclear if they were referring to the ease w/which staffers for foreign gov't-funded media can get cash to the U.S. president or something else.
