I get dunking on individual reporters for their "both sides" takes on democracy. But CNN leaders have been leaking to media reporters for months that they want the network to be more "neutral." They just fired Stelter, whose work emphasized the GOP's anti-democratic turn. — PolitiTweet.org

That's scary. So democracy is on the ballot, like in 2018 and 2020. And it's entirely possible that some of the election-denying Republicans win in swing states like Pennsylvania and Arizona. — PolitiTweet.org

So it's worth considering if the management of CNN and other orgs are pushing this approach, and the journalists are on some level just engaged in job preservation. (So blame the managers more.) — PolitiTweet.org
