The President is dictating his own news and trying to override or bypass the media by way of nonstop tweets.
The Democrats have too many candidates for the media much less the public to deal with.
How will journalists help voters sort through all the noise and confusion 🤔?

Watch my interview with Sherrod Brown on https://t.co/V0L5bdhmww.
He talks Jim Renacci’s campaign’s fact-free charges against him, his personal input into President Trump’s reworked NAFTA deal, his support for Cleveland’s blockchain technology push and some election predictions.

[Tom Beres @TomBeres]

The Brown/Renacci race gets uglier down to the wire. Watch my extended livestream interviewer with Sen. Brown at 10:30 am Friday on https://t.co/V0L5bdhmww and the U. of Akron YouTube Channel. We’ll talk issues, his ultra-liberal voting record and Renacci’s last gasp claims.

Thanks @RachelDissell for speaking up about over-the-top media do's and don'ts for tonight's State of the City remarks.
And props to the Press Club for pushing back and prompting rollback.

Cong . Jim Renacci is an underdog out to grab Sen. Sherrod Brown's job by avidly backing President Trump.

Sen. John McCain embodied the best of public service.
I was fortunate to interview him twice.
He tried to put the country's best interest above what was politically expedient for his party.
If only his passing and legacy could inspire more members of Congress to follow his path.

[Tom Beres @TomBeres]

So sad to learn of the passing of columnist, commentator and newsman's newsman Dick Feagler.
He knew CLE better than anyone. His common sense and conscience made him a great storyteller.
I was lucky to work with him twice, at the Press and TV 3.
Two huge CLE losses in one day.

NASA Glenn Director Janet Kavandi may get a promotion ... And in addition to being a wonderful space agency leader, she looks remarkably like Channel 3 Weathercaster Betsy Kling. https://t.co/o3N0j2PRZg
