It'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...

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...)

Via S.V. Dáte:

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.

Alex Thompson:

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.”
