Dan GillmorIt's such a misnomer (a kind word in this case) to report that Trump is holding press conferences when these appearances consist of endless, lie-filled rants followed by a few questions and lie-filled responses.
Please do better, journalists...

Your absence is inconvenient and your silence irksome.
That "emulate form without doing actual reasoning" is so effective at charming the executive class into throwing money at it…
…is kinda damning of the executive class' own "genius" intellectual self-regard
They themselves have used prose-based discriminative pattern-matching (& privilege) to get where they are, not actual reasoning
"That guy fast-talks like he knows what he's talking about, put him in charge of a division" is no way to run a system of {governance}
Jim Fallows, the dean of modern press critics, got an email from the excellent @gleick about the crumbling institution so many of us once revered, the New York Times. He (Fallows) discussed it in his newsletter:

(I hope @gleick will publish his email in full as a thread here...)

The vast majority of #Trump’s interviews are w his apologists.
Rarely see any complaints about that.
& btw—6 wks out & Trump does not have a press pool traveling w him
The only journalists on his plane, in his motorcade are handpicked to be there.

This will make #Harris’ 2nd sit down w someone who supports her candidacy (Oprah being other).
Here is Ruhle last Fri: “Kamala Harris is not running for perfect. She’s running against Trump. We have two choices.”
Wiley Miller@GottaLaff
So...her extensive interviews with the NABJ and Oprah Winfrey didn't count as real interviews, right?
MSM is having a difficult time dealing with their fall into irrelevance....which, coincidentally, was the subject of today's #NonSequitur...
@spocko Hey, I just saw this at digby’s: https://digbysblog.net/2024/05/12/another-good-trump-christian/
I don’t want to go on the dead bird site to find out, and I can’t find anybody talking about it here, but did mcentee just confess on video to passing counterfeit bills with the intent to defraud?
Inducing someone else to commit a crime unintentionally would be fraud, right?
So, am i right, he’s confessing to two felonies?

https://twitter.com/MsMalarkey24/status/1789513771280384426 In case you don't want to watch that video, it's Trump's top aide talking about how he carries some fake five dollar bills that he gives to panhandlers which he says they will then try to spend and get arrested. Hahaha. As Max VonSydow said in
obrhoffIf you're looking for an explanation of what's happening at Google with the current layoffs, just watch this video. Steve Jobs' reflections about what happened at Apple provide the best explanation. It's something you'll encounter in all corporate companies.

Molly WhiteMany yearn for the "good old days" of the web. We could have those good old days back — or something even better — and if anything, it would be easier now than it ever was.

Aral BalkanIf the Twitter/X thing teaches you one thing, let it be this: Twitter was a neoliberal place. Then Elon Musk made it into X, a fascist place. Once again, neoliberalism laid the foundations of fascism. But that’s not the (whole) lesson… Neoliberal folks are still using X, calling it Twitter to make themselves feel better, and pining for the good old days. And there’s the real lesson: When neoliberalism turns into fascism, neoliberals will adapt to life under fascism. Right, class dismissed.
