I spent an hour on the Joy Cardin Show talking about media coverage in the 2016 presidential primaries today. We talked about the changing media landscape, Donald Trump, Gov. Walker, efforts from candidates to control their message, research dealing with how newspapers cover candidates they endorse, the hostile media effect and took some calls claiming the media are in the bag for both Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. It was a fun hour – I got to quote Dan Rather’s (talking about Trump) “his chances are between slim and none and slim just left town.”

One goof I made was misspeaking about the years Joe Biden ran for president. I said 1988 and 2012, but of course he ran in 1988 and 2008. The line to rescind my Ph.D. forms at the right.
