6. K & R I don't get the point of this article. Does Politico really believe the ads influence....

..the President of the US? He or his staff hears, sees, reads this same stuff everyday.
He has a qualified staff filtering thru the muck, (thank you Jen Psaki), their fingers well on the pusle of media vs agenda, before every news conference, his legislative leaders move his agenda regardless what the news ads say.

I see how the POLITICO article used this seemingly benign storyline to also push their own agenda deeper in the article.

As like many with roots to where they began, Joe Biden reads the local hometown Delaware newspaper for the same reasons we all do.

As for the ads 'reaching the ear of the President to influence his decisions', he's already heard it all by the time it reaches the local newspaper printshop.

Biden reads his local hometown paper for thee same reason others do.
Familiar names, business, obits, who's kid got married to who, etc.
It takes him back home.

I suppose Politico would also resort to 'reaching the ear of Joe Biden' via his Hometown paper, since I doubt the foreign RW billionare owned Politico or Politico Playbook is high on his list of reading material.

Politico is now under the managment of foreign owned billion $$$ corporate global RW for-profit media influencing.

Slick af manipulation. Profit driven.
Politico's not interested in influencing the President however, they're in it to influence with a negative biased agenda how the public thinks about the Democratic President, his VP, his staff, his policies, his Democratic leaders by his side, etc.
