This NY Times homepage illustrates my continued frustration with the US media and campaign coverage and the lack of lessons learned from 2016. I count 11 headlines today mentioning Trump/Pence. 1 mentions Harris. 0 mention Biden:
I understand Trump is facing a health crisis. But 11 headlines? Surely Biden said something noteworthy while campaigning yesterday in Arizona? But instead, the media lets Trump suck up all the oxygen as he has for years.
Why does this matter? I highly recommend this episode of @PodSaveAmerica, where they polled in-depth undecided voters (starting about 46 mins). Amazingly, a large number have no opinion on Biden, despite 47 years in public service.
Why? They knew nothing about his plans because there has been so little coverage of them:
