Excellent piece on #Harris and this press corps. Props to #JohnStoehr for calling out #ChrisCillizza's mediocrity and bad faith: "But after this press corps made a fetish of Biden’s age, I don’t see any more room for the benefit of the doubt – and there’s no going back. This press corps made the election about vibes and it’s going to remain an election about vibes, and if those vibes now grind against the instincts of this press corps, tough shit. You reap what you sow."

Kamala Harris is taking power back from the press corps

She learned from Biden’s fatal error.

This is so great!

"By contrast, the Harris campaign is not letting the press corps wedge itself between her and voters. She is not allowing the news media to mediate her message. In effect, she’s preventing the press corps from speaking for her and, as a consequence, she’s preventing it from exercising a de facto veto on her speech. In that, she is taking power..:"

Cry more corporate media. You brought this on yourselves. 😢

@mastodonmigration @CindyWeinstein I suppose the media saw how Fox News made it, so now they want to be faux fox.

Oh, puh-leeze! Maybe she'll take part after you learn to scrutinize the orange traitor, Chris Cillizza. Do better. You've got light years to go.

@CindyWeinstein I think the press is now talking a lot more about Trump being a deranged loon *because* Harris isn't giving them anything to say about her. Why should she, why would she change?

This piece from David Rothkopf is also blistering on the for-profit press' self-absorbed tantrum.

Ignore the Media Haters. The ‘Harris Honeymoon’ Is Far From Over

The media is desperate to find fault in Kamala Harris’ campaign, ignoring how terrible a Trump victory would be, as well as how formidably well Harris and Tim Walz are performing.

@CindyWeinstein when has the mainstream media ever treated a woman fairly?
She owes them nothing.
