I must've missed ABC News’ official statement supporting reporter Rachel Scott, who was insulted by Trump yesterday. I guess ABC is still busy drafting a rip-roaring defense of Scott, because no ethical employer would let a staffer be harassed like that without addressing the issue.

Trump to ABC's Rachel Scott: "You are the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place. Let me just tell you -- you are an obnoxious-- a terrible reporter. And it's always the same thing with you. I told you."

MEDIA-OPOLY

This cartoon aired only once during the original live broadcast on April 4, 1998, and was later cut from reruns and most official online versions due to legal concerns or simply being a sensitive topic for a major media corporation like NBC, which is now part of Comcast.

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

I have more respect for the Iraqi journalist who threw a shoe at George W Bush than any of the cowards in the current White House press pool.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

Who are those people who find joy in hurting such a wholesome, loving family of the MN governor Walz?

When a President shows the worst example, a toxic atmosphere spreads fast.

Let’s Join Team Hope.
HOPE WALZ: “What world are we f*cking living in? I draw the line at Gus. You people are f*cking disgraceful.”

She says MAGA loyalists are now driving by their home and yelling “R*tard!” at her family and her special needs brother after Trump called GovTimWalz the R word.

An interesting thing about the East Coast journalism bias is I'd argue that much of the East Coast media corps came from flyover country and left.

The bias comes from the rejection of their home terrain and trying to adopt the ... social mores of the rich people who run media.
this is not meant to be a diss against "East Coast professors," it's that these are just completely different ecosystems and the streams rarely cross - ofc that's one big reason the US media, centered on the East Coast, didn't recognize the flyover evangelical threat taking over the GOP for decades

Today we remember the thousands of Americans who died in the attack on Pearl Harbor 84 years ago. Nearly half of those lost were aboard the USS Arizona, and I remember what a moving experience it was when Gabby and I visited the memorial. We’ll never forget their sacrifice.

And as long as you’re not Trans.
My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.
