As #DonaldTrump and #France’s #EmmanuelMacron today met in at the #WhiteHouse, American journalists from the #AssociatedPress (AP) were barred from the #PressConference. But some weren’t waiting long, according to a tweet from #Semafor White House Correspondent #ShelbyTalcott. The #French press corps stepped in to ensure that a #Paris-based #AP reporter could go in and ask her first question.

Honesty in #journalism.

Both #TheDailyBeast and #TheGuardian reported about the organisers response on the #olympic #drag thing.

You'd think The Guardian would be the honest one in their reporting. Instead it's The Daily Beast who, even though they color it a bit, is doing actual journalism here.

The Guardian though: putting words in the spokespersons mouth that weren't said nor even implied, drop un-sourced claims about athletes sleep etc.

#FoxNews sent a letter to #Trump & MVP #KamalaHarris’s campaigns proposing they #debate at an event the #FauxNews network would host on Sept 17 in the battleground state of Pennsylvania. The letter also suggests its anchors #BretBaier & #MarthaMacCallum would moderate.

During the #Jan6 #insurrection [via #TheDailyBeast]:

Bret Baier first argued on air that “it doesn’t appear to be violent.”
“It’s not like it's a siege it doesn’t seem, it seems like they are protesting,” he further shrugged.
