This is a great highlight from this piece: "Take two recent stories that perfectly illustrate the difference in coverage. First, there’s the TikTok ban. Political reporters focused on which party would benefit from the ban, and who would get credit for being “tough on China” — the usual horse-race nonsense. Tech and law reporters, meanwhile, were highlighting how the legislation would actually weaken security protections and create dangerous precedents for government intervention in private companies. (Not to mention how it would undermine decades of US work promoting an open internet.)"

Most of the political press is chasing clicks, without realizing they are just cheerleaders for their own demise. The open internet is going away. And nobody is doing anything about it.
