There is only one goal and one goal only.
Higher CPM’s.
CPM is the currency used in TV to reflect the value of the programming.
The higher the CPM, the higher the margin on that commercial being sold.
FixNews used to say "some people say." Tell me what the difference is here.correction on this after listening to it again: Raddatz grossly mischaracterized Biden's remarks but did not suggest Biden engaged in hate speech. She cited a group tracking hate speech that found Biden's primetime address was widely viewed as a "declaration of war."

Granted. But it still illustrates Trump really doesn’t understand what the phrase means. Because the way he used it here is the clearest case of talking to himself in a mirror that I’ve ever seen.The somewhat alarmist coverage suggests Trump just out of nowhere called Biden an enemy of the state (with all the connotations), when in fact he just used a rhetorical device to say that Biden was the bad person that Biden was calling MAGAs.

Nothing to loose your cool over.
" The press" as in "Congress shall make no laws . . . " is an artificial, man-made entity and so cannot have rights, the liberties given to it in the badly written First Amendment are privileges and not rights.
ReplyDeleteThe extent to which the media serve egalitarian democracy is the extent to which they should be allowed those privileges. I loathed Raddatz when she was at NPR, that was a long time ago. Her entire career has been one long audition for FOX which she found at ABC.
