NBC News Has a Bigger Problem Than Ronna McDaniel

There are a lot of flaws in this approach—namely the deference it inherently shows to politicians, its general conception of journalism as a conduit for political parties, and its reliance on party apparatchiks for spin and drama—but it has been remarkably resilient even as American politics has grown more partisan and divided.

It’s the Biden vs. Trump Economy—and Hell No, It’s Not Even Close
