Welcome to another segment of “Beat the Press with Emily Rooney,” now a regular Contrarian Boston feature.
Today, we dive into Trump’s shaky launch of his own YouTube channel — Trump TV — amid the president’s ongoing grudge-fueled quest to ban CNN and other news organizations he dislikes from covering White House events. We also dig into The Boston Globe story about a lesbian bar in Greenfield that went viral, generating more than a thousand new subscriptions for the paper. And last but not least, the Beat the Press panel offers up our rants and raves.
Emily Rooney was joined by Media Nation’s Dan Kennedy, a journalism professor at Northeastern University, Jon Keller, political analyst for WBZ-TV News, and Scott Van Voorhis, editor and founder of Contrarian Boston.
And thanks to Tonia Magras, principal owner of Hull Bay Productions, who produced today’s piece. Tonia was the supervising producer for “Beat the Press” when it was on GBH and is the principal owner of Hull Bay Productions.
