Hey “news” networks- don’t know if you noticed but there is actual NEWS HAPPENING! #Theranos verdict is in. But @MSNBC @FoxNews @CNBC @CNN all sticking to Trump/weather/CoFires/Trump/Biden. Hello??
#cablenews economics at play? PrimeTime shows replay 3 hours later on the west coast. If they cover breaking news as actual breaking news, shows may need to be redone or updated.
Wow @CNN finally gets to it. 21 minutes later and behind @AP @Variety … as for @MSNBC? @CNBC?@FoxNews is talking illegal immigration …
A keen-eyed observer points out that @NBCNewsNow (streaming) beat all the cablers and sister network @MSNBC (still ignoring the story) by a mile … sign of where news is headed and who’s really doing news these days?

#HowLiarsWin – a thread about @AriMelber’s @MSNBC interview with @peternavarro. I’m an Ari fan. I admire the diligence and prep that clearly went into this. He has been rightly praised for holding Navarro’s feet to the fire, eliciting a “quiet part out loud” coup confession 1/11 Image
But in the spirit of a discussion of #journalism, I believe this was – as live interviews with liars almost invariably are – a failure, and a disservice to the public. So let’s - as Warner Wolf used to say – go to the videotape: 2/11
In the 11+ minute live interview, Navarro got 6 minutes of uninterrupted airtime, and used it to successfully advance an array of lies. At the end Melber himself acknowledged what was plain to see: “I can’t fact check everything in real time.” 3/11

Why why WHY do the networks keep falling for this??? The “coronavirus briefing” starts with a commercial for @realDonaldTrump delivered by defense secretary and now the military brass. ⁦#baitandswitch @CBSNews⁩ ⁦@MSNBC⁩ ⁦@CNN⁩ this is on you. ⁦@CJR⁩
Pro tip for #networks: if Fauci and Birx are not in the room you are not going to learn anything about #coronavirus response.
And now the commercial for the wall. And caravans of immigrants. And evil Mexicans. Aired uninterrupted. And the press serves up questions about it. This. Is. Epic. Failure.
