I first thought I was going to lose my mind in 2016 listening to NPR where they'd calmly report "HRC says_ , & DT says_" Reporters (everywhere) dropped contextualizing & informing, & chose Horse Race! & Ratings! Framing truth & reasonableness vs. lies & extremism as just 2 different & valid views

So many of us normal non-journos saw what was happening then and that so many more informed/positioned people didn’t is maddening.
