I’m coming to the conclusion that the only way for reputable mainstream media outlets to cover the White House over the next coming years is to absent their coverage as much as possible from official press conferences, speeches and other undignified circus events.
Perhaps every article about one of those events should start with a brief, high-points summary about what was said (no point in the reporter asking questions himself in an atmosphere so hostile to the truth), ignoring any softballs from outlets like Breitbart. The remaining 80% of the article should be real journalism, a reputable outlet talking to other, more trustworthy sources who in aggregate help the reader determine which parts of the first 20% were BS and which were not.
