    Dave Weigel Retweeted Matthew Dowd

    And how about some policy discussions? When Dems come on they get asked if they back Pelosi; when Rs come on they are made to respond to the latest Trump news.https://twitter.com/matthewjdowd/status/1028358788749959169 …

    How about @CNN and @MSNBC who have tons of time to fill, start doing 10 to 15 minutes interviews of all candidates running for federal office instead of talking over and over and over again about the exact same stuff?

        Face the Nation doing a panel on race relations today. Hoping some meat while talking heads chew the fat. We watch RuralTV for news. Lots of stuff that affects our region discussed and the word “Tweet” never comes up.

        Don’t forget “Why don’t Dems have a message?” and “Why are you so obsessed with Russia?”

        Cable shows are entertainment. The more titillating the better the ratings. The more *breaking* meaningless stories the better. Policy discussions won't make money. Sad times.

        Requires research ... possibly a spend ... easier to just debate and the panel-jockey former journalist is born

        It's not true that the media learned nothing from 2016. They learned that they loved it and wants much more of it. Screw the country.
