We’re kind of amused by the idea of a reporter wanting to “Make Journalism Great Again” on Inauguration Day, seeing as the media has done nothing but pat itself on the back for the past four years (the Dan Rather Medal for News and Guts?) even though the biggest story of President Trump’s term turned out to be fake news.
Sulome Anderson is a journalist with bylines everywhere, and it sounds like journalists are ready to go back into their slumber from the Obama administration; guess that’s what making journalism great means.
I can’t count how many incredible stories I’ve had turned down or haven’t even bothered to pitch over the last four years, knowing there would be little interest in political or conflict pieces that don’t involve Trump. On January 20, let’s MAJA—Make Journalism Great Again.

Jim Hanson has an incredible story that’s just sitting there in plain sight for any reporter who wants it.
OK here's one@JoeBiden took his son on sales trips aboard AF2
Hunter sold influence to foreigners w/o registering as a foreign agent
Joe took meetings w/ Hunter's clients
Mult felonies right there

How about it?
I cover war, Jim, not Hunter Biden’s travel planner. Sorry.

Oh well. Anderson seems pretty well-connected; maybe she knows a reporter who does cover scandals involving the president-elect.
If you don't think that the level of compromise achieved by China over the Bidens causes foreign policy issues
You're kidding yourself

Cognitive dissonance right there #stunning

Jim, I could talk to. You, I’m just going to mute and let howl into the void. Have a good one, Kurt.

If she covers war….she may be very busy in the not too distant future….

Yeah, Trump really didn’t really provide a lot of material for war correspondents. But once Biden gets the band back together …
