the louder Fox News freaks out abt this, the better for Biden
pls make this a three-day story
not that logic matters, but Fox has been relentless in its depiction of Biden as doddering ole man etc.

now the big news is he stared down a Fox reporter and called him an SOB??
Fox: Biden is too tough and passionate!!

1. quick thread on why these focus groups are pointless

pressrun.media/p/beware-media…
2. Not only are the media sessions too small and too infrequent, they’re also set up all wrong. Focus groups are designed to record extended reactions that a small group of participants have when they experience something together.
3. Focus groups are meant to gauge the response to a specific stimulus.

Gathering moderate and swing voters and have them watch Biden’s upcoming State of Union speech and then recording their impressions would be a helpful way to use focus groups in the political arena

my latest— more Biden bashing;

pressrun.media/p/beware-media…
“The poorly thought out focus group featured on Sunday’s “Face the Nation” included a grand total of six people who were identified as three Biden voters and three Trump voters. But all of them sounded like Trump voters.”
“In CBS’s aired focus group, not one person uttered a word of support for the president, who in the latest Fox News poll has a 47 percent approval rating.”

feels like a good night to re-post; pressrun.media/p/how-many-peo…
**this** is the conversation the country and media need to be having

not the, 'gee why does Murdoch allow misinformation on his network?'
“The U.S. has become a global leader in pandemic lies, and that’s because of Murdoch, who rushed to get vaccinated one year ago. All that while the network churns out lies about the pandemic and it couldn’t care less that nearly one million Americans have died”

nearly 80% Dems support Biden

but sure, “collapse”
when 80% Republicans supported Trump, press treated him as political phenomenon
Trump polling 38%, w/ 80% GOP support

media: how does he do it??

Biden polling 41% w/ 80% Dem support

media: he’s doomed

hard to describe how awful this piece is

<Millions of Democrats have decided that organizing their lives around Covid is core to their identity as progressives>

nytimes.com/2022/01/25/bri…
bc poll shows Dems are doing common sense things to protect themselves during global pandemic, NYT paints them as zealots so they can Both Sides the virus—see they’re both irrational!
meanwhile, @DLeonhardt is completely perplexed why older Americans are less concerned abt getting Covid

spoiler—it’s bc they’re overwhelmingly vaccinated!

my latest— the Normalizing Olympics; pressrun.media/p/ny-times-faw…
“It’s all part of paper’s hallmark devotion to constantly elevating white, middle-class voters from red states and portraying them as the most important political voices in America.”
“It was bad enough when the Times glorified Trump voters. Now they’re celebrating insurrectionists.”

this is how democracy dies
