I had so many conversations after he was elected about how the media really needed to play the straight man to his crazy or risk creating a "boy who cried wolf" effect, but that point of view seems to be the exception, as I hear people clamoring for more opinionated NPR pretty regularly. (And NPR has gotten significantly more opinionated over that last handful of years from what I can tell.) (That said, I do think it makes sense that Trump and those connected to him are creating many more headlines than Obama.)
