Headlines like 'The media is not doing its job' aren’t very helpful and I’m pretty sure that @GeorgeLakoff was more careful in his choice of words (eg ‘some media’, ‘certain reporters’).
Using ‘THE MEDIA’ reinforces Trumps message that all media are one single homogeneous group.

I agree. I should have adjusted the headline. Thank you for the feedback.

Thanks for your response and just keep up the good work! I'm a great fan of how you discuss crucial questions on journalism and I follow your tweets and podcasts from my home country, the Netherlands.

You're kidding. The left-wing media has no interest in the truth. Their agenda is to destroy President Trump, and the concept of the founding of our country. Their "god" is George Soros and his corrupt, subversive scheme of globalization. They are merely propagandists now.

As former journalist and current rhetoric professor, I would agree. The “critics say” questions are not good because it gives Trump opportunities to defy truth by making it a fight.

When George Lakoff says it you can be sure it’s right. Unfortunately George the MSM is reveling in it. They are on a suicide mission and they are going to take a lot of good people with them.

Lakoff is promoting activism, not journalism.

Brian, perhaps you can talk to your network about your own colleagues not doing this.
