Biden coverage has been awful and unfair since August.

this isn’t even debatable; pressrun.media/p/consumers-ar…
I mean…. pressrun.media/p/washington-p…
fun fact: when economy added 530K jobs in month of Oct. NBC Nightly News did not cover the story .

when economy added "disappointing" 220K jobs in Nov, it was the third story on NBC Nightly News.
i'll be discussing media coverage of Biden economy on @ReliableSources this morning

we’ve circled back to She’s a Mean Boss narrative

good look scrubbing the WP archives looking for stories abt men pols in DC who are Mean Bosses

apparently none exist
none have high staff turnover rate and none are considered perfectionists

my latest—deplorable; pressrun.media/p/spreading-co…
“Here’s what’s painfully obvious, even if the political press doesn’t want to say so: Republicans aren’t merely anti-mask or anti-vaccine. They’re pro-Covid. Period.”
“Despite the mounting evidence of the party’s nihilistic ways, the press remains too timid to call Republicans “pro-Covid,” just like they wouldn’t call Trump a “liar.””

my latest — US shoppers can’t stop buying stuff; pressrun.media/p/consumers-ar…
“If the media were to be believed, nervous consumers scared off by rising prices should be home guarding their wallets. Instead, they’re emptying the contents at shops and online.”
“a feel-good story about a red-hot economy in recovery mode is not what the press wants to emphasize. So economic coverage now revolves mostly around inflation reporting, which seems purposely over the top and lacking key context.”

" More than 70 percent of adults in the United States are fully vaccinated against the coronavirus."

but ok, Biden lost vaccine messaging
press has just gone full-on Orwellian

my latest—only people who care what he says are Beltway journalists; pressrun.media/p/fawning-medi…
just 2,000 copies were sold in the first week

“It confirms that the deeply unpopular former New Jersey governor remains, first and foremost, a media creation.”
“How Christie was able to sell so few books after lining up so much national media attention during his marketing roll-out — “This Week” “The View,” “Fox & Friends,” along with Fox News, Fox Business, the Daily Show, HBO twice, and CNBC — represents an extraordinary disconnect.”

my latest — surprise! pressrun.media/p/the-medias-g… #khive
“The recent frenzy of gotcha stories represents an entirely new way of covering a sitting vice president. None of the white men who previously served in that position were put under this kind of a microscope, and certainly not months into their first term.”
“Trump’s VP is most famous for being chased by a mob that wanted to hang him during a deadly insurrection. But today, Harris supposedly feeling politically constrained is treated as breaking news.”

gimme a break
