“The same media that remains in inflation hyperventilation mode, just cannot work up the energy to consistently inform news consumers about the surging economy under President Joe Biden.”
“So attached to the idea of using economic news to bash Biden, the press doesn’t know what to do when the data demolish the media’s preferred storyline.”
what explains this??
when reporting on increased inflation rate recently, NYT mentioned Biden in first sentence (bad news for him!)
when reporting on recording-setting GDP last week, NYT made no Biden references at all
Heads, Biden loses
Tails, Biden loses

“The Times for the last year has been a leading press player in pushing the idea that DeSantis is a runaway political star, and the Times’ general practice is always to treat rising Republican stars as savvy and imposing.”
“What about the fact that more than 65,000 Floridians have died from Covid-19 and 5 million have been infected under DeSantis, who has taken extreme steps that have prolonged the pandemic? The Times politely sets most of that aside.”

1. Conservatives are volunteering to get sick and die. Period.
2. Liberals are not trying to close schools
3. Biden cannot stop a global, mutating virus
“Nervous about offending Republicans and Fox News by depicting anti-science conservatives as flat-earth deniers who would rather risk the welfare of themselves and families than get a vaccine (developed under Trump!), the press tiptoes around the obvious insanity.”
astounding what that company has done to its corporate imagine by refusing to stand up, ever, to the torrent of Rogan lies during a public health crisis
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
