She definitely deserves props, but CNBC is mainstream media, so that’s a weird thing to tack on the end.

Honestly if you were a media person with the ability to ask questions of the demented manbaby why wouldn’t you trigger him? Every single time? No point in asking him questions to find out things. He just says whatever is in his silly little head right then and there.
Better off getting him to display his (lack of) character rather than interpreting his gushing torrent of diarrhoea into sensible ordered thoughts as they normally do.

I gather they wouldn’t in order to maintain access, and possibly, their jobs. I’d be surprised if, given Tramp’s anger at her “nastiness,” she’s ever allowed to ask him another question. I suspect she may well be forbidden from ever being in the same room with him again.

Do it once. Get something.
Maintain access, get nothing.
Access “journalism” will end journalism.

I hope it doesn’t. Being able to ask the president or his pressroom puppet questions in person isn’t the only way to do reporting.

I was surprised his producers wanted him to talk about, but I see that’s an NBC owned station, not a Sinclair owned station, so that makes sense.

Let me see. What would protect journalists from being murdered? Some kind of air defence system, a kind of “Armoured Dome” if you will, over Gaza.
Where more journalists are being killed that at any time since World War Two.

This article talks about how a major news source has developed a secure messaging system for whistleblowers and is making the coding open source for others’ benefit. It’s about mitigating the danger to journalists’ sources, not the journalists themselves.

This video from Belle was interesting, because of how she highlighted how bias influences what people hear when listening to her reading of the Declaration of Independence:

I’m going to post this here, because while this isn’t a traditional journalist, I like seeing things like this. Nando is a B or C list YouTuber who covers comic book movies and comics and some other pop culture stuff, but mostly comic book movies. And his channel isn’t huge. His main channel has 300k subscribers. But, he normally does not get into politics, other than the normal kind of political messaging you find in comics. But he doesn’t make content specifically about politics. But he saw something happen that he thinks is bad, and he’s speaking up about it. We need more of that.
