Sure, what the president says is newsworthy -- but 75 minutes of live coverage while he bloviates, insults and makes false statements? No way.

That may be what you do on your Sunday show, but that isn't what CNN and MSNBC do the rest of the week and is kind of the problem that we're talking about. I mean, y'all cut to a photo op of Don Jr eating ice cream where he insulted dems and lied unchallenged. How is that news?
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Yes, that’s what you did, which proves it can be effectively dealt with that way. But that was only after he got live coverage for a long time for no good reason. It’s news, but we should think through how we cover that news.

I think presidential speeches are news events that should be shown live, but I understand the criticism and I wrestle with it myself.
