Ryan Lizza @RyanLizza

Not to nitpick but Manchin did not personally inform the White House and Dem leadership of what he was about to do. It was an aide, which prompted a Dem familiar to gripe, "Manchin didn't have the courage to call the White House or Democratic leadership himself ahead of time." — PolitiTweet.org

The key word here is "himself." — PolitiTweet.org

I disagree. I think the WP has a lot to be proud of. Its Biden coverage has been stellar and it certainly shouldn't be accused of being pro-authoritarianism or pro-lies because some robots said it had a more negative tone towards Biden in recent months. — PolitiTweet.org

Ryan Lizza @RyanLizza

@Milbank Couple of things: AI can’t tell difference b/w a negative story about Trump undermining the election and a negative story about Biden struggling to pass a bill. Apples and oranges. It’s comparing an election year w/the first year of a new presidency. More apples and oranges. — PolitiTweet.org

Ryan Lizza @RyanLizza

No respectable model of salvaging democratic norms would include badgering journalists to write only positive stories about the most powerful person in the world. — PolitiTweet.org

Ryan Lizza @RyanLizza

You are pulling a sleight of hand where you take the definition of neutrality from the research (neutral in tone about Biden) and re-frame it with a definition you invented (neutral between authoritarianism and democracy). That’s why the data doesn’t show what you think it does. — PolitiTweet.org

Ryan Lizza @RyanLizza

@Milbank We are friends lol. We're just having a debate about what this data shows. I don't think it shows what you think it shows! — PolitiTweet.org

Ryan Lizza @RyanLizza

Dana's sentiment analysis found that Biden coverage in Politico (-.0545) and WP (-.0495) was nearly identical in November. It also found that the WP's Biden coverage was MORE NEGATIVE than its overall coverage in September and November. Why is this meaningful? I HAVE NO IDEA — PolitiTweet.org

Ryan Lizza @RyanLizza

The big flaw in Dana's argument is that he is using crude sentiment analysis of news about Biden and Trump to make a point about covering politics in an age when democracy is being undermined by top GOP pols. But this data just doesn't shed much light on that important issue. — PolitiTweet.org

Ryan Lizza @RyanLizza

This is dumb and beneath you, Dana. The same kind of tinfoil hat thinking could be used to connect Bezos’ ownership of the WP with the WP’s sharply negative turn against Biden since August. Maybe, just maybe, there were other factors at play? https://t.co/b6Nb40nTTM — PolitiTweet.org
