Covering the New Trump AdministrationYesterday, you may have noticed, was quite a big news day. I try to avoid writing about him too much, but with Donald Trump now back in the White House, there seemed little choice but to do so today. I watched both the UK and US media yesterday. There were valiant attempts to fact-check the incoming President on, for instance, CNN. Which is fine, but none of the people who might benefit from the fact-checking are watching CNN. (As I pointed out in the latest House of Comments episode.) Also, when President Trump freestyles, as he did at points yesterday, it is almost impossible for viewers to follow what he is saying, making it all the more difficult for journalists to push back. Another question that sprang to mind yesterday is about normalisation. Has media coverage made us just accept that the diatribes, the lies and the rulebreaking are normal, when they very much are not? And how do you navigate that when the lack of normality is what appeals to so many of Trump’s voters? Read the full piece with a paid subscription
