  • A Few Problems I Have with Cable TV Political Reporting During the 2020 Presidential Election Season (Actually, Many Problems Would Be Truthful)
    A Few Problems I Have With Cable TV Political Reporting During The 2020 Presidential Election Season (Actually, Many Problems Would Be Truthful) (Author’s Note: This is the second in a series of occasional political columns that I’ll be writing for CommPRO.biz until Inauguration Day, January 20. Previously, I wrote 17 political columns leading up to Election Day. FYI – My first public relations job was with a political firm, where I worked on local, statewide and presidential campaigns. In this column, I opine why cable news political coverage is below par. The cut- off date for this article was to be the day of President Trump’s first presser after his election defeat, which was the day this was written, November 13,) Arthur Solomon Do cable news reporters mislead viewers because they don’t know the facts of what they are reporting? Or are they instructed to limit facts of a story by their producers to keep viewers’ interested and lure them back as a soap opera does for more? Or is it that the reporters and producers only read the first few paragraphs of the New York Times, Washington Post and Wall Street Journal for their stories,(in lieu of original reporting), which provides enough factual information for the usual headline type cable news report? In any event, what they report is too often incomplete or inaccurate, or even worse, simply pundits’ conjecturing as they attempt to show the audience how smart they are, when history shows – remember how their 2106 and 2020 Democratic wave elections turned out – the great majority of their gibberish is as accurate as Trump’s claim that the election was stolen from him.

  • U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress
    U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress Ronald O'Rourke Specialist in Naval Affairs Michael Moodie Assistant Director and Senior Specialist in Foreign Affairs, Defense and Trade Updated February 24, 2020 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov R44891 U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The U.S. role in the world refers to the overall character, purpose, or direction of U.S. participation in international affairs and the country’s overall relationship to the rest of the world. The U.S. role in the world can be viewed as establishing the overall context or framework for U.S. policymakers for developing, implementing, and measuring the success of U.S. policies and actions on specific international issues, and for foreign countries or other observers for interpreting and understanding U.S. actions on the world stage. While descriptions of the U.S. role in the world since the end of World War II vary in their specifics, it can be described in general terms as consisting of four key elements: global leadership; defense and promotion of the liberal international order; defense and promotion of freedom, democracy, and human rights; and prevention of the emergence of regional hegemons in Eurasia. The issue for Congress is whether the U.S. role in the world is changing, and if so, what implications this might have for the United States and the world. A change in the U.S. role could have significant and even profound effects on U.S. security, freedom, and prosperity. It could significantly affect U.S.

  • Presidential Administration Under Trump Daniel A
    Presidential Administration Under Trump Daniel A. Farber1 Anne Joseph O’Connell2 I. Introduction [I would widen the Introduction: focusing on the problem of what kind of president Donald Trump is and what the implications are. The descriptive and normative angles do not seem to have easy answers. There is a considerable literature in political science and law on positive/descriptive theories of the president. Kagan provides just one, but an important one. And there is much ink spilled on the legal dimensions. I propose that after flagging the issue, the Introduction would provide some key aspects of Trump as president, maybe even through a few bullet points conveying examples, raise key normative questions, and then lay out a roadmap for the article. One thing to address is what ways we think Trump is unique for a study of the President and for the study of Administrative Law, if at all.] [We should draft this after we have other sections done.] Though the Presidency has been a perennial topic in the legal literature, Justice Elena Kagan, in her earlier career as an academic, penned an enormously influential 2001 article about the increasingly dominant role of the President in regulation, at the expense of the autonomy of administrative agencies.3 The article’s thesis, simply stated, was that “[w]e live in an era of presidential administration.”, by 1 Sho Sato Professor of Law at the University of California, Berkeley. 2 George Johnson Professor of Law at the University of California, Berkeley. 3 Elena Kagan, Presidential Administration, 114 HARV.

Andrew Schwartz Podcast Subject: “Ruth Marcus: A Matter of Opinion” Speakers: Ruth Marcus, Columnist, The Washington Post Hosts: H. Andrew Schwartz, Senior Vice President for External Relations, CSIS Bob Schieffer, CBS Political News Contributor; Former Host, “Face the Nation,” CBS News Date: Monday, July 24, 2017 Transcript By Superior Transcriptions LLC www.superiortranscriptions.com (Music plays.) BOB SCHIEFFER: I’m Bob Schieffer. H. ANDREW SCHWARTZ: And I’m Andrew Schwartz. MR. SCHIEFFER: And these are conversations about the news. We’re in the midst of a communications revolution. We have access to more information than any people in history. But are we more informed, or just overwhelmed by so much information we can’t process it? MR. SCHWARTZ: Our podcast is a collaboration of the Bob Schieffer College of Communication at TCU and the CSIS in Washington. MR. SCHIEFFER: In this first year of Donald Trump’s presidency, we’re talking to the reporters who are covering the president the closest. (Music plays.) MR. SCHIEFFER: Today on the podcast we have Ruth Marcus, an op-ed columnist for The Washington Post, who specializes in American politics and domestic policy. She’s also the deputy editorial page editor. She went to Yale and then went to Harvard Law School. And if I’m correct, you started writing for the Post while you were in law school. And then did you ever leave, or is that the only place you’ve ever worked? RUTH MARCUS: That’s – well, I worked for a small legal newspaper before I went into law school, which kind of explains my detour.

    Tow Center for Digital Journalism CONSERVATIVE A Tow/Knight Report NEWSWORK A Report on the Values and Practices of Online Journalists on the Right Anthony Nadler, A.J. Bauer, and Magda Konieczna Funded by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Table of Contents Executive Summary 3 Introduction 7 Boundaries and Tensions Within the Online Conservative News Field 15 Training, Standards, and Practices 41 Columbia Journalism School Conservative Newswork 3 Executive Summary Through much of the 20th century, the U.S. news diet was dominated by journalism outlets that professed to operate according to principles of objectivity and nonpartisan balance. Today, news outlets that openly proclaim a political perspective — conservative, progressive, centrist, or otherwise — are more central to American life than at any time since the first journalism schools opened their doors. Conservative audiences, in particular, express far less trust in mainstream news media than do their liberal counterparts. These divides have contributed to concerns of a “post-truth” age and fanned fears that members of opposing parties no longer agree on basic facts, let alone how to report and interpret the news of the day in a credible fashion. Renewed popularity and commercial viability of openly partisan media in the United States can be traced back to the rise of conservative talk radio in the late 1980s, but the expansion of partisan news outlets has accelerated most rapidly online. This expansion has coincided with debates within many digital newsrooms. Should the ideals journalists adopted in the 20th century be preserved in a digital news landscape? Or must today’s news workers forge new relationships with their publics and find alternatives to traditional notions of journalistic objectivity, fairness, and balance? Despite the centrality of these questions to digital newsrooms, little research on “innovation in journalism” or the “future of news” has explicitly addressed how digital journalists and editors in partisan news organizations are rethinking norms.

  • OP Ed: Another Victim of the Coronavirus: TRUTH (And a Not-To-Forget Lesson for People in Our Business)
    OP Ed: Another Victim Of The Coronavirus: TRUTH (And a Not-To-Forget Lesson For People In Our Business) Arthur Solomon, Public Relations Consultant The deadly coronavirus hates people. It has separated people from their families. It has separated people from their friends. It has caused massive unemployment. It frightens people. It is also responsible for an increase in hate messages on social media, targeting all minority populations, ranging from African-Americans, to Asian-Americans to religious Americans who practice Orthodox Judaism and to Jews who don’t. It has destroyed our way of living. The virus makes people very ill. Worst of all it kills people. But there is also a victim that was only made possible with the assistance of humans – TRUTH. President Trump’s revisionist remarks about the coronavirus, which is happening as I write this, on April 26, continues. The result: For many Americans is there is no TRUTH. And politics and the media have played a large part in aiding the virus to put TRUTH on life support. While TRUTH had been ill since January, it took a sudden turn for the worse in the U.S. on February 28, during a rally in South Carolina, when President Trump described the virus as a Democratic “hoax.” Other presidential remarks like saying, anyone who wants a test can get one; there are plenty of PPE supplies; doctors and nurses are hording them; we have the situation under control; his hawking of medicines for people infected with the disease as if he was a medical scientist, and his contradictory remarks about blaming the coronavirus on China, to name a few of the president’s comments, all added to put TRUTH in a grave condition.

  • In Defense of the American Surveillance State
    IN DEFENSE OF THE AMERICAN SURVEILLANCE STATE Dr. Gabriel Schoenfeld* ABSTRACT The term “American surveillance state” is something that has come into use by fierce critics of U.S. government counterterrorism efforts, efforts that necessarily contain surveillance as a critical element. A body of opinion has emerged arguing that thanks to the ubiquitous eyes of the National Security Agency, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Department of Homeland Security, and thanks also to the widespread distribution of myriad new forms of surveillance technology, privacy in America is being destroyed and George Orwell’s dark vision of Big Brother is on its way to realization. This Article rejects this characterization, and asserts that current counterterrorism efforts are an effective and appropriate response to ongoing threats. While history teaches us the government may at times overstep its bounds, even in today’s current national security climate the U.S. government’s approach is less intrusive than it has been in the past and is critical for protecting the safety of the American people.

  • Chosen Nation: Christianity, Politics, and American Destiny" Dr
    TRANSCRIPT "Chosen Nation: Christianity, Politics, and American Destiny" Dr. Catherine Brekus Harvard Divinity School May 2017 MICHAEL CROMARTIE: Now let me just say, I will introduce our speaker. You've read her entire bio. I will not then read it back to you, simply to say that Professor Brekus, you may not know, was named the Harvard Divinity School Outstanding Teacher of the Year in 2014 and '15. She did her Ph.D. at Yale. Her undergrad was at Harvard, and on this topic some of you have never been here before. What we do is four months out, I meet with E.J. and Will and Karen and Andy Ferguson and others. We have a discussion about what should we be talking about at the next Faith Angle at the intersection of religion and public life, and I believe it was Will who said we really need to talk about religion and nationalism. One of our speakers at last Faith Angle, Grant Wacker, said the best person on this subject is our speaker today, and not only is she good on it, but she's writing a new book on it called Chosen Nation: Christianity and Politics in American Destiny. So when will your book be out? CATHERINE BREKUS: This is a wonderful opportunity for me, because I am going on sabbatical next year to work on this book. I have taught two courses about this and have written a little bit, but there is no publication date. MICHAEL CROMARTIE: But this is the trial run? CATHERINE BREKUS: This is a trial run.
