        One instance of "old ways" not serving, is choosing balance over truth We have seen that an inability to cover the asymmetrical leads to a less informed electorate There is little that Trump is doing now that wasn't on display during campaign However look at the word "clouds" /1

        that resulted for each candidate from that campaign. Trump would do or say ten disqualifying things. But to cover one negative of his meant returning to the only sticky negative on HRC "email" tit for tat coverage is a disservice and lazy adherence to an obsolete "old way"

        And after a recent self-excoriating internal accounting, the NYT came up with the notion that reporters could not seem balanced if their social media feeds expressed any political opinion. Regrettably that false need for balance seems to have spread to editorial content as well.

        Strong dissonance here. I completely agree with the sentiment... but WaPo obviously doesn't. They used to be my go-to #news source (now @Reuters is, coincidentally + @TheHill), & seemed to *try* to be that "independent arbiter" but gave that up to go after a partisan audience.

        You and your colleagues got the facts wrong by following Russian bot created rallies after the election last year. Did any of you look into any of the fabricated agitation for/against Trump in 2016? What about the gun control debate? Curomo retweeted lies just this weekend.

        Just a thought: Maybe we need fewer news reporters appearing on TV. When reporters go on morning shows and offer their takes, the line between fact and opinion becomes very blurred. Maybe some coaching is in order so reporters learn not to offer their personal views on cable TV.
