Jane Coaston, New York Times "The Argument" host and newsletter writer, joins Steve Krakauer in a return to the Fourth Watch Podcast to talk about the media's Twitter obsession, pros and cons of the media's focus on the platform, what to expect from Trump's imminent Twitter return, narcissism and masochism of Twitter, Twitter as a window into the psyche of "important" people, Elon Musk's Twitter future, journalism as a job for nosy people, what's really behind Trump's endorsement of JD Vance and Dr. Oz (and Vance's primary victory), the story and the story about the story, bad faith focus on ancillary issues by both sides, podcasts and newsletters as intimate media platforms, sports as a culturally important media topic, and more.
