@benryanwriter @jbarro First of all, there is no blanket NYT ban on being overly political. Secondly, what is overtly political about pushing for pro-democracy journalism in a society where free press cannot exist with it? Please be specific about what was political in my tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

@IceBergular91 @KFILE And I'll ask again: What is the opposition party offering that will help with this? Higher prescription costs. Repeal student debt cancellation. Privatize Medicare? This is the job of reporting to make clear. — PolitiTweet.org

@IceBergular91 @KFILE I believe we are capable at discussing both things at once, and that no free society can trade its freedom this way. We are not in typical political times. We should trade our freedoms for cheaper goods? I'm not sure how you don't understand that. — PolitiTweet.org

J. Michael Luttig, who's been known for years as perhaps the most conservative Republican judge in US, has joined a coalition fighting against a far-right Repub election-law challenge that critics say has the potential to end U.S. democracy as we know it. https://t.co/pmkcthAR4y — PolitiTweet.org

@Wallacewriter @MattOrtega We can report inflation AND the fact that our democracy is at risk and that perhaps our ability to maintain self-governance IS actually more important than paying more, particularly with all data on how Republican presidents have handled economy. — PolitiTweet.org

@Wallacewriter @MattOrtega We can report on inflation AND whether the opposition party has offered any plan to address it. We can report on inflation AND that fact that it is a global phenomenon. No, that doesn't matter when it comes to prices but it certainly matters to how voters view fault. — PolitiTweet.org

@Wallacewriter @MattOrtega Of course inflation is hurting people. I'm not arguing we shouldn't be reporting on inflation. I'm saying what we cover and how we cover it sways voter concerns. For instance, the gas price crisis was reported on every day for days. As soon as gas prices decline, no story. Why? — PolitiTweet.org

@Je193N @KFILE Critiquing a tweet that I think fails to recognize the moment we're in and suggesting a summit designed to help all of us as a profession better report and understand what's happening isn't condescending. It's doing my job. Have a good one. — PolitiTweet.org

@Je193N @KFILE So, that's an entirely different point then you were making. And also: wrong. I'm not just a journalist, I am a journalism professor seeking to push the field to historically informed, pro-democracy journalism. Founding an entire center to do so. — PolitiTweet.org

If we didn't believe that what Americans care about has a great deal to do with what we report and how, we wouldn't have become journalists. And yet, when it comes to voter concerns, too many in the profession want to pretend that what we cover and how has nothing to do with it. — PolitiTweet.org

@KFILE This is a pretty remarkable response to my tweets to you, especially the need to quote tweet. I'm sure you know everything there is to know, so I won't invite you again to a summit with experts that hundreds of journalists from across the country will be attending. — PolitiTweet.org

@Brazil551 @KFILE Voters concerns very often follow what journalists report, for one. For two, does anyone believe Democrats are not talking about inflation and economy? — PolitiTweet.org
