"At key moments, Leavitt visibly seethed at the media. And we think we know why: On Tuesday, consumer confidence registered another big drop, and Leavitt was simply unable to defend the glaring Trump-Musk failures we’re seeing."

"At Tuesday’s media briefing, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that the White House will now decide who attends briefings, an effort to insulate President Trump from tough scrutiny. She also offered awful spin about the developing Elon Musk fiasco."

#RachelMaddow just went off on #MSNBC for canceling #TheReidOut. She pointed out that while MSNBC is keeping #AlexWagner, they cancelled her show as well as #JoyReid’s, & in doing so they cancelled the only shows in prime time with women of color as anchors. She also talked about the new leadership disrespecting the support staff by making them reapply for jobs at the network.
Well done #Maddow.

#JoyReid’s #MSNBC show #TheReidOut is cancelled.
“I owe the television part of my career to Joy Reid, as do so many other #Black voices y'all never would have heard of if not for her,” #journalist #ElieMystal posted on social media. “And *that's* why she's gone. They can treat black folks as interchangeable, but everybody Black knows that Joy was indispensable.”

Who's watching your local council, keeping you abreast of issues in your neighbourhood, and celebrating your community's achievements? That used to be the role of your local newspaper, but now many of us don't have one.Natasha Mitchell (ABC listen)
"Even if she takes the nomination by acclamation, we will know much more about the prospects of an institutional defense against Trump by whether the media that once pushed Biden from the race now finds reason to dislike Harris, or to suggest she is an unworthy of a position she has spent the last four years preparing for."

“The White House press corps would be in wolf pack mode if Biden were in the middle of a speech and suddenly veered into gibberish about boats and sharks. There would be front-page stories questioning whether the president, at 81, was suffering from dementia; and the op-ed pages would be filled with thumb-suckers about whether Vice President Harris and the Cabinet should invoke the 25th Amendment."
~ Eugene Robinson

The #media is playing with fire again. What is this whole stuff about Trump winning the election against Biden if they were matched up again? I mean, on what basis would Trump win the election? OK, I get people are unhappy about inflation and such, but how would they expect Trump to fix any of it?
