Maybe we need to go back to those systems they used decades ago--time delay broadcasts. They used to use that to bleep out when someone said a cuss word.https://twitter.com/AmandaBecker/status/1253687972228141061 …

I’ve been saying this for a couple years. People deserve to and should hear leaders even if they’re saying things that are false but a 60-second delay to allow context or qualifiers or warnings would benefit everyone.

A profanity drop delay is entirely different than a 1 hr delay allowing media to edit content however they see fit. What makes you think they are qualified to determine the information appropriate for broadcast?

A 60sec delay would also be sufficient for public safety reasons. But the full broadcast of briefings is a VERY new phenomenon. 24-hour TV news didn't exist for most presidencies & as recently as the last administration, briefings were not on in their entirety in real time.

Can you elaborate on 'public safety reasons'? Without proper guidelines that sounds like another way to editorialize, whether purposeful or not.

For example, POTUS said a half hour ago his statements yesterday on injecting disinfectant as a potential coronavirus cure were made "sarcastically." So, a chryon running as he made the statements nearly 24 hours before saying its not a known treatment and could be dangerous.
