anti-bitch Posted October 8 Posted October 8 3 minutes ago, GhostBox said: I mean this is also why no one's reporting on the leaked campaign emails because they don't wanna offend Trump. Too bad they didn't care about offending Hillary in 2016 when they had wall to wall coverage of leaked emails π And could it be about TV ratings too, that they know most people who watch linear TV anymore are old and conservative, so they wanna cater to that audience. And Gen Z doesn't even read the website news either, so traditional media gets almost all their ad revenue and subscriptions from older people, unfortunately affecting what stories and narrative they push in their reporting.

We NEED TRUMP BACK!!" If there's anything good to say about X/Twitter is that people can put community notes under someone's post if they are spreading misinformation. I wish other platforms had that option too. Facebook in particular is just BS central at this point. 1

GhostBox Posted October 8 Posted October 8 (edited) So I know it's wrong to think about this during these storms but what impact do we think these hurricanes are gonna have on FLs and NCs election numbers come November? Β will FL be closer than it would've been?Β Β Β Edited October 8 by GhostBox

But the idea of community notes is good. It's like people fact-checking each other. 2

Β (Plot twist, she's the Republican she's referring to. :rip:) Liz Cheney's approval rating is -52% among republicans. There is literally no one changing their opinion by having a useless republican like her in the campaign. Just like Tulsi Gabbard is not making anyone vote for Trump Β 2 3

shelven Posted October 8 Posted October 8 Her trying to come across as BFFs with Republicans at least has a strategic theory behind it. It's morally abhorrent and I'm not even sure I fully buy the strategic theory, but at least there is one.Β Β Her continuing to explicitly refuse to distinguish herself from Biden in any meaningful way has no strategic theory and is unambigously a repeated unforced error. She's doing it because she feels bad being mean to grandpa Joe and doesn't want to look "disloyal" to him. It's a purely emotional/personal choice that is terrible for electoral strategy given how bad Biden's job approval rating is.Β Β It comes back to what I said back when people wrongfully thought it was a plausible strategy to keep trying to factually push back on the "Biden's too old to run again" claims: you have to meet voters where they actually are, not where you think they should be. And voters largely think Biden's a bad president. You're not going to magically convince them otherwise with 30 days to go until the election. So you either have to accept that reality and act on it - in this case, by distancing yourself from Biden's presidency - or you can keep denying it and make repeated unforced errors all to spare some old man's feelings.Β 3 1
