I was prepared to write about the way national media has become ever more distracted in the post-Trump political realm.
But I was momentarily distracted, by Tucker Carlson’s claims that the NSA thinks he’s James Bond. Uh, Tucker, if an American with influence is emailing Vladimir Putin for anything between sharing secret codes or asking for an interview, I hope our security cyborgs are at least aware of it, to be honest. And if this happened to Don Lemon, you’d be calling him Benedict Lemon or comrade or something like that.
But that’s a topic for another page, I suppose.
This is more about the spin cycle that Trump once dominated that has now spun itself so far off course, Magellan is giggling.
The headlines on Thursday afternoon around the media landscape ranged from attempts to be clever to politicians trying to game the system, which does not seem like news or is certainly not worthy.
