What's the point of having hostile reporters at a press
conference?

They just interfere with getting Trump's message out!
Might as well limit attendance to just those propagandists
willing to get with the program.

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/media/two-sites-that-amplify-hoaxes-given-special-treatment-at-trumps-briefings-despite-restrictions/2020/08/14/8579032e-de6e-11ea-809e-b8be57ba616e_story.html

The other journalists might be just as happy to skip the
press conferences, since there is never anything that
is both new and true, and who wants to be close indoors
to people who take off their masks to shout out their
questions?

The Swan interview - and what it says about modern media
journalism

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/08/04/mainstream-media-stop-admiring-good-interviews-reform-your-approach/

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/media/2020/08/04/axios-jonathan-swan-president-trump-interview-hbo/

How do you approach an interview with somebody like Trump?

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/08/04/how-interview-serial-liar-narcissist-who-is-unfit-be-president/

Why couldn't he at least understand his props?

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/08/04/trump-actually-doesnt-appear-understand-how-bad-pandemic-is/

That's because they are not HIS props.      They are
props given to him by somebody else trying to propagate
a different message -

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/08/04/what-white-house-says-about-civil-rights-is-not-what-trump-says-again-again/

Why couldn't he at least say something nice about the
recently deceased?

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/08/04/trump-john-lewis-axios-swan/

But Trump has certainly accomplished two things.     Nobody
has done more to rehabilitate the historical reputations
of George W. Bush and Warren Harding!

Even the NYT has trouble defining it.      So how much
hope is there for social media, cable news, or talk radio?

The purpose of presidential press conferences is to provide
free advertising for the president's re-election.

What about that is so hard for reporters to understand?

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/03/30/coronavirus-yamiche-alcindor-trump/

Of course there's a reason that media no longer bother to
cover all of his press conferences in full -

The purpose of frivolous lawsuits against reporters.

They make great fund-raising ammunition, even though they
are eventually dismissed.       Then the dismissal makes
more fund-raising ammunition.

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/media/a-history-of-the-trump-war-on-media--the-obsession-not-even-coronavirus-could-stop/2020/03/28/71bb21d0-f433-11e9-8cf0-4cc99f74d127_story.html

The Trump campaign has elevated personal attacks against
journalists into a lifestyle for campaign finance.
The target audience doesn't care if they are objectively
true or not - they resonate emotionally and, apparently,
in the pocketbook.

And all of Trump's enablers in the Republican party are
complicit, some actively, some silently.

Keep on suing!

 https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-trump-lawsuit/trump-campaign-sues-cnn-for-libel-over-russia-opinion-piece-idUSKBN20T2OJ

Of course the purpose of such lawsuits is to silence the
opposition by bankrupting it with its legal fees, even if
all the lawsuits fail in court.

NYT spotted a gap and filled it while Trump was talking
but nobody was looking!

 https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/01/business/media/ben-smith-journalism-news-publishers-local.html

There are very few big journalism organizations left.
Washington Post for politics, Wall Street Journal and
Bloomberg for business,  New York Times for most everything
else.

Formerly major newspapers like the San Jose Mercury News
get all their non-local news from those sources, along
with AP News and Reuters.

The theory of modern consolidation is that you don't have
to have competition within a channel as long as you have
competitive channels.          But different channels like
print media, cable TV, and social media cater to distinctly
different audiences that don't switch channels much.

And some people don't care to distinguish journalism from
entertainment.    The National Enquirer and Fox News are
much more profitable than their competitors.

How should journalists handle official propaganda?

 https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/media/trump-is-pushing-a-dangerous-false-spin-on-coronavirus--and-the-media-is-helping-him-spread-it/2020/02/28/1d136dde-5a60-11ea-ab68-101ecfec2532_story.html

The problem is that "Trump lies again!" is
not news, either to his supporters or his detractors.
He's normalized it - making it the accepted conventional
practice.

Trump sues NY Times

Of course it's not true.      Trump doesn't need to
coordinate with Putin.      He does whatever Putin wants
without being asked.
