NewsBusters Podcast: The top news story about Chris Cuomo is now the ending of his era. Only after Chris Cuomo was suddenly fired over the weekend did CNN’s Brian Stelter discover — hey, wait a minute — Cuomo had crossed an ethical line “many times,” that there were “so many headaches here, so many journalistic fouls.”
Then Stelter presided as his guest David Zurawik touted Cuomo as a wonderful “talent” and “performer” who did a “terrific job” and was “competitive” in the ratings. The laugh track is now!
There was nothing more absurd than this. Washington PostDana Milbank claimed that he has proof that Trump’s media was rougher than Biden. Stelter enjoyed this fake-study by publishing 200,000 stories using a vaguely defined algorithm and “sentiment analytics.” It’s as if machines could do “sentiment analyses.” We, at the MRC, believe that media tilt should be analysed by looking closely at every article with our human eyes.
