@nytpitchbot.bsky.social - this was my feed when I opened the app up just now. It took me a minute to realize you'd only written the first two.

The biggest problem late-night TV has is that it is... late-night. Few people stay up that late anymore, espcially on a school night. Crazy to think that Letterman was on at 12:30 AM. But streaming means "late night" can be watched any time and it works even better as short clips.

This is like Charlie Brown and the football. Trump knows outlets like the Times will be *outraged* and make this their top story. It's just banter for him but he knows the Times and other mainstream media outlets will allow this to dominate the news cycle. Versus say, why EWR is falling apart.

In our next video from @tvrev.bsky.social's "What's Possible" serires, LG Ad Solutions CMO Tony Marlow, hot off yesterday's very successful NewFront, explains why we're looking at a "CTV First" future and why the television is for more than just watching TV. Check it out!

While I am sure it does much to increase engagement, in weeks like this, the NYT's decision to put fluffy articles above the fold on the home page makes the whole paper seem Not-That-Serious

Fox website vs WSJ website this afternoon. ZERO mention of tariffs, stock market etc. on Fox. Yet WSJ, also owned by Murdochs, is in high freakout mode. Different audiences, but still striking.

Chart via Steve Kornacki (NBC) - the gap beween non-college men and college women is mind-blowing. And since I suspect "college" includes everything from Yale to community college, I bet if you took the top, say 100 colleges, that gap would be way wider, with men too.

I suspect if you look at what people on the Tucker Carlson-level right (I have no idea what else to call it) are saying, it's almost identical.

I am considering this a hopeful sign. The guy who left this comment is a Trump voter who is horrified by this. It has over 1.2K likes. If he's losing people like this, there is hope.

I feel like the UK's system of having an opposition leader "shadow cabinet" would greatly benefit the Democrats right now, as it would provide them with a single strong united leader/leadership team to speak for them, especially to the press

Possibly the most @nytpitchbot.bsky.social headline ever. Truly a master work of euphemism and sanewashing.

Read this. Tthe key takeaway is not that ordinary citizens did nothing, but that the opposition leaders and business class did nothing. They underestimated him, were too divided and didn’t act until it was too late. People saw this and thus accepted what was going on. www.amazon.com/Hitlers-Firs...
