Democratic messaging, a quick thread.

in wake of Covid bill and how press is inexplicably given McConnell credit, despite fact he blocked crucial aid for 9 mos, i know lots of people are frustrated Dems don't message better.

i am, too! 1/
too many Dem leaders still view the press as being on 'their side' and trust it do the right thing, when so clearly they are not.

instead, press feeds of GOP talking points all the time. 2/
but it's too easy to overlook the fact GOP benefits from billion-dollar $$, right-wing media messaging machine that does its dirty work 24/7

top-rated cable TV 'news.' 8 out of top 10 hits on FB every day. virtually every AM talk radio station in US. newsletters, mags etc 3/

awful Covid framing.

I haven’t walked inside a building w/o a mask in 10 months. my family canceled Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings.

*millions* are doing this

Trump and GOP gave up!!
NBC runs 10 Covid articles in special news package, *not one* abt Trump’s deliberate, criminal negligence
media astonished at how bad US pandemic is—Trump plays no role, apparently

awful framing—some Repubs may soon acknowledge Biden win is presented as good news, not a sign of how completely demented GOP has become. cnn.com/2020/12/09/pol…
continues 4 yr obsession of press trying to prop up idea GOP deeply distressed by Trump’s unAmerican behavior—they’re not
reminder: it was CNN that two weeks reported GOP “had no choice” but to back Trump’s demented claims of voter fraud

in March I wrote that Trump had given a stand down order for virus invasion

I wish press had spent last 9 months covering story that way
instead, last spring they toasted Trump for his serious pandemic “tone”; pressrun.media/p/tone-deaf-ho…
fact that Trump is waging war on America remains off limits for press
