I'm telling you dude it seems like elite media/political press has entered this weird closed loop where they are both the performers and the audience.
you combine this with an almost total disinterest in policy, or even objective reality, and it’s an absolute disaster. nothing more than a circlejerk of so-called journalists whining about how nobody understands how vital they are to democracy
The Beltway press think it's all about THEM and their elite Insiders' Club. "No everyday American cares about this" should be a common response to them. Just like how Harris shut down that stupid "Trump says you say you're not Black" question.
@joshtpm.bsky.social Talks about how the Washington press, specifically, because they have all the Washington politicos as a core of their audience, modify their reporting to suit that audience. The reporting inside the beltway that gets clicks is different from what the median audience wants.
It's cocktail parties all the way down.
yes. this interview wasn’t for voters, it was to see how harris responded to the narratives that they themselves created!
So, forgive me, I'm a nobody, but can we agree that there is common ground with the (less eloquent) "MSM is the problem" people?
Enough about me, what do you think about me
Ooooof yeah
