    Listening to the NPR Up First podcast, they mentioned that Kamala is going on podcasts. They did point out that the podcast hosts don’t have journalistic training.

    Kind of disappointing, but understandable coming from people who went to school for journalism.

      Harris knows that swing voters are not listening to NPR. They’re listening to the stuff at the top of Spotify and Apple’s podcast lists.

      Trump also knows this, and he’s been doing it longer than Harris has been.

      On the other hand, the current political press acts like it has never even read the dictionary definition of journalism let alone had journalistic training these days.

      Doesn’t really matter though, none of the big news agencies have any journalistic integrity anyway. If everyone’s just gonna make up bullshit to get ad revenue, the only thing that really matters to a politician is what audiences does a content creator give them access to.
