In reply to the discussion: I don't think Harris needs to prove she can answer questions, I think the media needs to prove it can ask them [View all]

(2,421 posts)72. I think there is a generic answer to all stupid questions.
You are talking to the Vice President, and the person leading the polls to become President. My opposition is a convicted criminal and this is the best question you can ask? If you don't have a good question in your list that might inform the public on policy and outcome, then please let someone else in this studio who has a good question take your place. If your next question is leading with a lie, I am walking and your broadcaster will need to submit questions in advance on the next interview.
I take this seriously and I think you should too.

Yes, corporate old-news, manipulated news, censored news is butt hurt because Kamala won't be controlled by them.

There are a million reasons I am not in politics, but my answers to the insane and inane media would top the list.

Of course the NY media knew, but the vast majority of the American People don't live in New York.

True...but the advertisers know and pay attention. They know when their products are not being found

It seems to me you've given them some good options on how to answer these types of questions...

I too see it as a test as to whether they can ask serious questions not just gotcha ones.

CNN is not worth my time. It long ago transformed from news to angertainment with yelling fools.

You're absolutely right EarlG, which is why I despise our so called "traditional media". It's another reason I think...
