obviously wrong and dumb viewpoints can get widespread traction throughout society if given the veneer of respectability by elite institutions, no matter how many times they're debunked

for example, climate change denial

Every single biased media outlet does this though. They bring on their 'Alan Colmes' to present opposing ideas so they can swat them down or inform their bubble exactly what the other side thinks.

People weren't watching MSNBC and changing their viewpoints because Jeffrey Lord was spitting hot conservative takes.

I'll admit, the one where a cop and a protester are shouting at each other in full and half-mask respirators was darkly humorous to me. Predictably she sounded muffled while the cop began to sound like a kazoo as he shouted louder due to the vibration of the exhalation valve. She had the right idea in that environment though.

The attacks on press is really the wildest part to me. There's no way for them to defend or deny it, attacking the press is a line that usually doesn't even get crossed in official war zones. There's nothing to gain for police attacking the press other than a show of power, which just reinforces why there are protests in the first place.

They also have nothing to gain for attacking the press either.

The press normally might give police good publicity in normal times. That relationship will be tense going forward.

Seattle too. On the one hand, this is great on the other, I don't really want to see police deescalate this quickly just because it gives more reason for the weekend protests to be less of a statement.

I know i just spent a couple pages criticising the liberal press but also..... Trump spent his tenure making an enemy out of the press every single day, so of course police are going to be less inclined to give them special privileges on this issue. Feels like a lot of departments simply do not give a shit about optics right now hence some of the conduct that's been recorded.

See my problem with the whole "media" thing is stuff like this. You see it left or right. The meds said Covid was a hoax? Uhhhh which media?
