Is President Trump’s ‘flood the media’ strategy working? | BBC Americast
With daily announcements, executive orders and press conferences from Trump’s presidency in its first fortnight, how should we be navigating the daily torrent of news?
Americast examines the deliberate strategy by the White House (also used in Trump’s first presidency) to “flood the zone” with news.
Justin, Anthony and Marianna discuss whether Democrats and the media should be properly scrutinising each news story, what to ignore, and whether the strategy is successfully working for President Trump?
