Some personal news — excited to announce that I'm joining forces with @ravisomaiya to launch Breaker Media. A new publication that will cover money, scandal, media, entertainment, tech, art, fashion and the deeply weird:

For the last decade, I've traveled across the country listening to folks' stories alongside terrific producers, photogs & audio techs.
I'm grateful & looking forward to this next opportunity to cover the Trump Admin as a NBC White House Correspondent.

Some personal news for the new year: I’m joining the @WSJ’s talented White House team. Grateful for the last five years at @politico and my wonderful colleagues, and excited for what’s ahead.

@justinbaragona No. You should provide context and tell the full story, not advance out-of-context, cherry-picked publicity for one network. I am certain if we beat FNC in one hour it’s unlikely you’d cover and if you did, you’d caveat with add’l info. 🤷🏻♂️
@justinbaragona Disappointing that a media reporter would share info without full and appropriate context. As you know it’s symbolic of Fox’s audience jumping ship. CNN was within striking distance of winning the entire demo for 8p. And solid number 2 for 7p. Do better.
@justinbaragona Easy. And I’ll also handle the reporting. CNN came in 2nd in demo, trailing FNC by only 5k and more than tripling Newsmax during 8p. And came in 2nd in demo more than tripling Newsmax in 7p. 🙄

"If you're angry or upset, I understand, but you have the power to do something about it." Listen to CNN's @andersoncooper discuss the CNN Republican presidential town hall with Donald Trump, as Manu Raju and Jessica Dean share the GOP reaction to the former president. Watch:
I just want to say that Kaitlin Collins is doing an incredible job at FACT CHECKING Trump during the CNN Town Hall. She is calling him out at every single chance that she gets when he says something that is not accurate.
Collins has come equipped with all the facts and is ready in a split second once Trump begins to spread false information.
To those who criticized CNN, I think that they are doing a wonderful job at holding Trump accountable and letting the American people hear what he says but also hear the FACTS.
Thoughts?
Chris Licht was brave to put on Trump in a Town Hall. He and his network were always going to be attacked for it from both sides. But the reality is Trump is the front-runner of one of the two major political parties and a former president. He should be treated as such.
3.The audience was curated by CNN through community groups, student politics and government, faith groups, agriculture and education orgs, as well as R groups. The school and campaign also invited guests.
https://t.co/KsTWIi3u5Z was a GOP Primary Town Hall, thus an audience of Republicans or undeclared voters expected to vote in the R primary. Polls suggest most Rs support DJT.
