and "drowned out" is subjective but again you were perhaps in a different part of arena. We can certainly differ in interpretation.

If you watch the TV feeds, speakers were often drowned out (Panetta): difficult to tell from within the arena

I kinda lean the other way- tv allows you to amplify (in every sense) disruptions. Panetta definitely the most overwhelmed though.

it's almost as if you're saying that much of the discord is fueled by a skewed media ecosystem!

The most dramatic delegate walkout in the modern history of political conventions wasn't fueled by the media ecosystem

they literally walked into the media tent. Not trying to be dismissive, the underlying issues are huge, but (social) media skews.

Yes and the relative disinterest at the elite media level also skews

absolutely. We just may somewhat disagree about the nature of "relative."
