Future of Media After Election?

Article in Poynter by Tom Jones, 11/9/24

Headline:  “Opinion | Donald Trump and the media: a look back and a look ahead to the next four years

Subhead:  “Four media experts and analysts discuss how the press covered Trump in this election cycle and what to expect going forward”

“. . . [Trump had had] a relentless barrage of attacks on his enemies, which includes the press.

It’s that style, as well as a constantly evolving media landscape, that has left the journalism world continually reviewing how it has covered Trump and how it should cover him in the future. And it asks these questions while wondering if Trump will follow through on many of the threats he has made against the press.

“. . . I’m no longer sure what “the press” is, and what speakers mean when they refer to it. Is it The New York Times, The Washington Post, NBC, CBS, CNN, Fox, USA Today? Yes. Is it The Atlantic, NPR, PBS, BBC and The Associated Press? Yes again. Is it a thousand local newspapers? OK. Talk radio? Well … Podcasts? Umm … TikTok, X and social media?
