How much worse does an administration need to be before this amount of coverage is acceptable to you?
I don't think the potential for audience fatigue is a valid reason to start ignoring a president continuously embroiled in legitimate controversy causing irreparable harm to our nation.
You found your limit, I get that, but it's the administration who exceeded your capacity with their newsworthy actions - not the media.
- Glyptodon 8y agoI hate how imprecise and tabloidesque a lot of the "reputable" coverage is. There's a lot to cover. And by any reasonable standard Trump should probably have been embroiled in an impeachment process already. But does that really mean speculation about the Mueller investigation is news and not speculation? I don't think so.
- newnewpdro 8y agoI hate everything you're pointing out as well, but it seems more a product of news and journalism in the 21st century in general - not specific to coverage of the 45th president and/or his administration. My impression is that quality journalism has been defunded into the toilet now that newspapers and magazines have been displaced by click-bait websites desperate for ad revenue competing with randos spreading nonsense via facebook and twitter.
