For Politico's 15th birthday, we brought together a group of Politicos, past and present, to discuss what we got right, what we got wrong and what’s changed in the last 15 years
I have a nuanced view. When someone is lying to the American people and they are paid with taxpayer dollars, it’s important that we say that. I think there was a good conversation at the beginning of the Trump years of: What is a lie? The question is: Do you know if that person is knowingly saying something that is inaccurate, or are they misspeaking, et cetera? And that conversation has continued, and I think we learned good lessons from that.
One of the challenges for journalists wherever we are right now — and it’s probably more of a challenge for legacy journalism outlets than newer startups or even a place like POLITICO, which isn’t really that new anymore but was the OG in a lot of ways — was explaining to the public how Trump was different. It wasn’t just that he was saying something that wasn’t true. Voters in the public think that politicians all say things that aren’t true.
At the same time, there used to be — I actually do see it across the spectrum now, with more fervor on the political right still — this belief that reporters could be screamed at enough that it was going to either intimidate or change how they do things or whatever. And now I just think that everybody is screaming so much that it just doesn’t even sink in.
I used to have this idea that it’s really, really important for me to hear from readers, that it’s really, really important for journalists not to close ourselves off to criticism. I really held true to that for a while. I’m starting to see that isn’t really what’s happening on Twitter.
