Two of the media organizations that have really "met the moment" in national coverage are Teen Vogue and WIRED.
Along with student-run college newspapers in general. And scores of local start-ups.

For any unfamiliar with the quality of journalism at Teen Vogue, it's well known for hard-hitting stories on "politically sensitive" topics including climate.
Then there's CBS: the only major network to increase climate coverage in the last few years. They just axed nearly their whole climate team.

Mace blames cops for her airport meltdown: "In the political environment we have today, there's no room for error when it comes to security... yes, I did confront those who did not show up to do the job. My safety was put at risk... mediocrity when it comes to airport security will not be tolerated"

Hakeem Jeffries, with his David Cassidy eyes, is simply unsuited for his position. Bring back Jo-Anne Fabrics. He’d be so comfortable and confident amongst the colorful ribbon and soft yarn. He’s not meant for DC. He’s gentle, and lethargic and risk averse. He’d be everyone’s favorite shift leader.
Who said he was old? He’s simply ill suited for a job which requires him to be a decisive leader, a beacon for the future, an exciting and inspiring figurehead or even simply not visibly anhedonic and lethargic, particularly as the face of the party. He’s not old, he just sucks real hard at his job
