Biden's getting beat by Trump in media mentions by a ~9:1 margin over last month, & Biden's winning. (Clinton was getting beat 2:1 at this point.) Lesson from 2020 so far & 2016: Dem's pathway to win is to give Trump the media spotlight & stand back https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/26/politics/joe-biden-polling-media-exposure/index.html

Folks seem to confuse the media domination that Trump got in the 2016 primary (which was very good for his campaign) and the media in general elections (very bad). If you got an unpopular incumbent, more media on him isn't going to help his cause...

Once the media turns to Biden... It can turn the election into a choice... A choice Biden may win... but is much more uncertain... As we saw with Clinton in 16 when the media attention turned to her in the final weeks of 2016...
