Topic: Media Trauma

Military veterans suggest that Donald Trump may experience significant psychological trauma following two assassination attempts within 60 days. There is a strategic recommendation for the Trump campaign to pivot away from large outdoor rallies toward digital platforms like X Spaces and podcasts such as Joe Rogan.

CNN's Brian Stelter is criticized for his coverage of the "trauma" experienced by reporters during the January 6th Capitol riot. Christy Lee argues that the media ignores the violence associated with BLM protests while obsessing over the events of January 6th. She predicts "wall-to-wall" emotional coverage as the anniversary of the event approaches.
