        As a psychologist, don't use that term. MSM is not out of touch w reality. MSM needs broader news/info instead of sensational

        I get why that might confuse people, but it's not wrong. attacks newsworthy, but that doesn't make a travel ban a good reaction

        Just discussing this issue helps Trump so much - it plasters images of muslim terrorists in front of viewers.

        @thedailybeast stop using the word "schizophrenic" when referring to something that is not actually schizophrenic.

        One question no one seems to want to answer. What was wrong with the system that was already in place? Anyone?

        One of biggest failings of 24/7 broadcast news is the dearth of vigorous crosspartisan debate, crushed between lengthy ad breaks

        All too often CNN/MSNBC/FOX clamor to get hot takes & argue over soundbites for political points, rather than detailed analysis.

        Nothing worse than commentators wasting time debating "what this means for Dems/Repubs" in lieu of "what it means for Americans"

        Smart take, but I'd argue that media coverage of natural disasters is nearly as breathless, but doesn't lead to dissonance.
