Swamp Notes: Is mainstream media old news for Harris and Trump?

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have different approaches to the media: Trump talks a lot, and Harris talks a little. But the candidates share one thing in common: they’re both sceptical of mainstream outlets. The FT’s US managing editor, Peter Spiegel, and Los Angeles bureau chief, Christopher Grimes, join this week’s Swamp Notes to explain why.  Mentioned in this podcast:<a href="https://on.ft.com/3YYRhDr" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kamala Harris versus the media</a><a href="https://on.ft.com/4e05Jzi" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">‘Way too much news’: US conservatives face a fragmented media map</a><a href="https://ep.ft.com/newsletters/56a64b704f693a0300dfab7e/subscribe" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sign up for the FT’s Swamp Notes newsletter here</a>Register for our live subscriber webinar now at <a href="http://ft.com/uswebinar" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ft.com/uswebinar</a> Swamp Notes is produced by Ethan Plotkin, Sonja Hutson, Lauren Fedor and Marc Filippino.
