.@JonahDispatch we should teach people civics over the news. When people can’t ID the Vice President it makes me want to cut myself. That’s not the job of journalists but rather educators/parents

.@JonahDispatch I love @jbouie on localism. My concern about news deserts is when you no longer look to the community you live in and you start looking at politics as entertainment (good guys, bad guys). It let’s you turn people you disagree with into abstractions

.@jbouie historically Americans haven’t been particularly informed about politics. Most people are just living their lives. We’re not witnessing a failure of learning. The system wasn’t designed to handle mass polarization or the internet.

.@jbouie there’s no connection between being informed and making good political decisions. The most partisan folks are the most informed (information adding to polarization along race and region). The ability to act as a citizen isn’t dependent on your information

.@ClareMalone - people who believe conspiracy theories are well read but not reading the same sources. Politics is pop culture. It’s like cotton candy news. TV has a more diverse viewership than print. I wish my work had a broader audience

.@JonahDispatch I reject the idea that my job is to lean in service of a partisan outcome. It’s difficult to talk about stakes without it seeming like you are asking people to vote one way or other

.@JonahDispatch - my big epiphany of the last three years is that we aren’t as polarized as we have been before. Parties have never been weaker than they are now. That results in institutions that aren’t part of parties absorbing party functions - see NRA/Planned Parenthood

Audience Q -what are the stakes in 2020 and how can we communicate them without polarizing the debate? @jbouie South Carolina from 1868-1890 is where the US right now. If someone reads that and doesn’t see themselves as Jim Crow they would be right to object to the analogy

.@jbouie I think of the condemnation of Pompeo after he bullied Mary Louise Kelly is a great example. Trump breaking norms is just being Trump while others are held to a higher standard.

.@jbouie I’m obsessed with local land use policy. It has changed my media diet. If I go to a local meetup, they bring people together for political causes that cut across a number of identities. The decline of local media makes those connections less regular.

.@ClareMalone shouts out @propublica Local Reporting Network but it’s putting bandaids over a wound. Lack of local news reflects coverage and opinions of readers who don’t see their stories being told

.@JonahDispatch so much of Twitter is racing to be wrong first. Non-opinion reporters should be so careful with how they use social media. You wouldn’t want judges to weigh in on Twitter

.@jbouie Mis and disinformation is a trust issue. You want people to own their mistakes, news outlets to accurately report issues and campaigns to coordinate to fight conspiracy theories

Audience Q - what have we learned from disinformation in 2016? @ClareMalone I’m worried about mis and disinformation. There’s confusing reporting (not precise) and then real disinformation (reporters being used/duped). There’s already active disinformation actors
