LivePD host Dan Abrams was interviewed today by Brianna Keilar on CNN. I’d not seen the show, and only remember Abrams as a reporter during the OJ Simpson trial. I think he had a show on MSNBC for a while, but so has almost everybody.
Keilar attempted to employ what I guess are now termed gotcha questions, but most of them didn’t land. All they did was create fake adversarial tension. Frankly it got annoying. Were I to examine this interview through the prism of race, it’s very telling that the white CNN host is interviewing the white host of LivePD about the systemic racism the media helps to create/sustain. It’s equally telling Keilar went from this interview to an interview with Sean Penn (whom she fawned over) for another old white man’s take on racial injustice. https://www.mediaite.com/tv/dan-abrams-defends-live-pd-in-heated-clash-with-cnns-brianna-keilar/ On Wed, Jun 10, 2020 at 7:00 PM stannc <[email protected]> wrote: > It follows this week’s cancellation of “COPS” > > > https://variety.com/2020/tv/news/live-pd-a-e-javier-ambler-austin-black-lives-matter-1234630742/ > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "TVorNotTV" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tvornottv/11dd4054-01fb-4f2b-8562-3fc1e2c2b6ddo%40googlegroups.com > . > -- Kevin M.
