@NixonandIke My point was, actually, that no one in 2000 thought that Gore was insensitive to women's issues, so his flub on "mammogram" wasn't considered noteworthy. But this had much more to do with pre-existing theories about the candidates than pro-Democratic media bias. — PolitiTweet.org

Charter a plane or buy a boat: At 11:30 am on Monday, I will be talking 2020 political coverage (and its discontents) with the incomparable @MelindaKCMO and @mattizcoop on Martha's Vineyard. The event is free as part of the Islanders Write festival. https://t.co/1sgzAYBPvk — PolitiTweet.org
