An open letter to Trump from the US press corps
- MR4D 10y agoI had an odd thought while reading this. If you replace "Trump" with "Saudi Arabia", news with oil, and press with OPEC, then the weakness of their position becomes rather clear. They can't NOT cover his administration because they are trying to act as a cartel, and the first one who cheats to cover him wins. Not saying this as a political statement, but rather how cartels work. I think they need a better model if they are going to take on the biggest megaphone in the world (the us Presidency - thinking of the term "bully pulpit" from Teddy Roosevelt).
