"My goal in any election and with every poll is to give understanding of why voters might break one way or the other," @SalvantoCBS said. "Viewers won’t be surprised if they understand why what happens, happens." Read more here >>> cnn.com/2024/10/30/med…

Journalists are typically most comfortable talking about what we do know. But sometimes the story is what we don't know. CAN'T know yet. And this is one of those times. We have to communicate uncertainty about the election. 🧵

@semaforben @daveweigel I don't think the opinions of the country can be well represented by the presidential election given the primary audience is a slightly right leaning set of states that aren't broadly representative of the country as a whole.

@chrislhayes Where what and how information is consumed and processed has been fractured, segmented, and used to create epistemic bubbles to point we don't even have a shared understanding of reality. major challenge of this era.

“We don’t have any responsibility to cover Trump accurately because nothing we do matters” says a top journalist for a newspaper whose drumbeat coverage helped force a sitting president to drop out of the election not three months ago.

@whstancil The argument that centers literally on NYT or WaPo misses entirely the feeding frenzy phenomenon that signals to all OTHER outlets what the big story is. Even Fox because people go on and they talk about it - even if it's just denial, it becomes an issue.

There's a fundamental incoherence to this (commonplace) view, that the nation consists of Trump voters, who are permanently and inexorably voting for Trump and cannot be swayed by any means, and then potential Dem voters, who may vote for a Democrat or Trump, and are swayable.

@MavericksMaven I'm so flabbergasted by this point. Have you truly not noticed that the people and institutions with influence over Biden and his voters are totally different than those with influence over Trump and his voters? NYT/WaPo/etc. have no influence over Trump! They did over Biden.

@TPM Feel like SCOTUS has already done too much to empower a dangerous tool.

It needs to be said over and over and over again. The Haitians who have flocked to Springfield, Ohio, are not illegal immigrants! They are here legally and have moved to the city because of all the job openings in recent years. The town itself urged immigrants to move there!
TheBlaze@theblaze

Trump: "Towns and small cities are being taken over by illegal migrants. Look at what's going on in Springfield today."

@joshtpm It's wild to me that he can just say any crazy thing and journalists just shrug. "Metropolis doesn't exist any more, she let in flaming tigers and now it's just ash. Can you believe it? But I would make one phone call and it would be fixed." Journalist nods sagely

12/ is like trying to fact check a battle rap. It’s pointless and misunderstands the genre. The genre in Trumps case being bullshit.

Harris campaign has a memo out tonight addressing the issue of Trumps flip flops we’ve been discussing today. On one level it’s comparing the hyper focus on Harris compared to the general oh that’s just Trump attitude most reporters are taking with a Trump.

@joshtpm JD is a Conehead. This donut thing is indicative of his unidirectional transactional worldview. He didn't want to order donuts, he wanted a photo op - the second it didn't look right, he freaked out and made it weird.

"Walz's group became a lifeline for LGBTQ students in rural MN & spawned at least one marriage. Two former Walz students were in the Gay-Straight Alliance, married a decade later, and showed up at a Dem office recently looking for Harris-Walz yard signs." publicnotice.co/p/tim-walz-gay…

@mattyglesias It jumped out to me that Axios for instance classed a number of improbable and highly irresponsible proposed tax cuts with this electricity thing. Which seemed odd to me since you can cut taxes, if you have the votes. you cannot cut the cost of electricity in half.

@AshaRangappa_ Sometimes I'm a dad, sometimes a husband, sometimes a man, a friend, but never, NEVER at the same time because that is impossible. You can ever only be one thing at a time. That's just science.
