I'm super disappointed she is even entertaining the legacy press at all

[Baltimike]

but think tonight can be useful to show how the legacy press skews everything to the right.

Watch how it happens.

A tan suit? A Dean scream? There are any number of spite nuggets these emm effers will turn out against progressives AND logic pretzel they won't try to twist the narrative into, in order to prop up the right wing.

We don't them...and they only ever hurt us in the name of "both sides" or "some say"

I hope there is better news with tonight's entrance into their arena, but even if Harris and Walz are stellar, they will be maligned as mediocre.

1. From clips I've seen, Harris/Walz nailed it in interview. Smart move and doubt anyone will call her mediocre.

[Baltimike]

5. The right wingers are already calling her much, much worse

but I am stoked to hear she nailed it

[Silent Type]

8. They would call her that if she didn't do interview.

2. CNN is not to be trusted to give Kamala a fair shake... just watch.

[Baltimike]

6. exactly. The new boss wants it to be more like Fox. nt

[Self Esteem]

3. She does need them, though.

And she understands she needs them because the media still drives the narrative that defines the election. So, at least she'd have an opportunity to shape the messaging as it related to the campaign.

4. I think she's playing it beautifully.

Her carrot and stick routine with the press has them doing stories about themevles not doing stories on her. I think she knows the form.

[Skittles]

7. no, I think she did it right

she did not agree to the demands immediately because SHE IS IN CHARGE - she set her own narrative before allowing the vultures in.......I am impressed

I also don't think the usual lowlife repuke tactics are working this time, because the party as a whole is now being seen as WEIRD - another great strategy.

9. I understand, BUT

1) she is no "ordinary" candidate;
2) is intelligent, always aware, and in control;
3) is confident in her awareness and intelligence;
4) knows exactly what she is doing.

This well-publicized event is a strategic "tease" that will cement her appeal, and the "legacy press" will be tripping over itself for more. She will tame and control the media.

The other guy? Ha. Expect increasingly desperate antics to seize media attention, even if negative. Spiral...

10. CNN is the "Legacy" press?

I thought that was newspapers, not a TV channel.

11. Anything from the 80s with established viewership and WH press passes IMHO, FAUX NewZ shouldn't belong in that group due

... to their tight coordination with the GQP

12. Didn't watch the interview, did she continue to say

she will put a Republican in her cabinet?

BAD MOVE. WHY?
