This WAPO social copy and the chosen reporting angle is representative of LAYERS of practices by mainstream newsrooms that contribute to their *ineffectiveness* in educating & informing the public accurately about economic trends & forces, particularly.

THREADLET...
1/6 2/6
 It's a sticky nat'l narrative & public *misconception* that the Oval Office is a primary influencer of consumer prices & economic forces.
(It's not)

👉🏼ETHICAL newsrooms would EMPHASIZE this explanatory, relevant contextual info in every economics-focused story.
They don't.

AUDACITY of @nytimes folks @CharlesMBlow & @MaraGay on @Morning_Joe blaming Biden-Harris for being "too dignified" in their comms as a primary problem

Look in the mirror

@nytpolitics desk is one of worst offenders in using unequally applied standards in covering Biden-Harris.

 Please do this homework assignment, @CharlesMBlow & @MaraGay, and AUDIT the HEADLINES, social media copy, and PHOTO choices of the current president (honestly, the photo choices of Biden compared to how NYT gifted "hero" images of Trump are comical)

"Biden is the Centrist President Everyone Says They Want" via @JVLast for the @BulwarkOnline Substack.

For those who don't subscribe or use Substack, here's a thread of excerpts...
1/🧵 Image "Biden passed the American Rescue Plan that included a lot of spending, but it was short on progressive giveaways and long on help for working families. The Inflation Reduction Act was passed on party line, but was full of spending for rural states."

"What Fox News Hosts Said
Privately vs. Publicly About
Voter Fraud"
Fox News is not a news outlet. While all media outlets want to keep their audiences tuned in, Fox News & Murdoch outlets operate as especially egregious in twisting reality to do so
nytimes.com/interactive/20… 2/🧵
Fox News noticed their audience turning to Newsmax to tell them what they wanted to hear. So Fox News executives watched their employees intentionally distort reality on air to try and woo audiences back.

"Vladimir Putin is sounding like someone who wants to enter the 2024 Republican presidential primaries..."

Note how President Putin's messaging themes echo themes we hear on Fox News and other right-wing media outlets.

People say, "WHY don't I see Vice President Harris?"
Follow along—here's a story.
On @CNNSotu hosted by @PamelaBrownCNN on @cnn, they opened show featuring Munich Security Conference.
Show producers made these CHOICES to erase @VP 100%. @VP made major appearances repping the U.S. 2/
 Show producers platformed the faces of two Republican congressmen: Rep. McCaul & Rep. Mike Turner.
BUT the official message about the position of Biden-Harris Administration regarding supporting Ukraine—to the world—was given by Vice Pres. Harris 👇🏼
