Nicolle Wallace Invites Beto O’Rourke to ‘Play Media Critic’: ‘What Can We Do Better’ to Cover Campaign?
EXCERPT:
O'ROURKE: "This is a good question. Well, I'll tell you — so, it just is what it is."
WALLACE: "It doesn’t have to be."
O'ROURKE: "But we’ll have incredibly powerful town hall meeting, 10 or 12 amazing questions, people sharing their own stories, their testimonials that help us to understand some of the challenges we face on affordability of prescription medication or this crisis in opioid overdose and abuse and death. And then, afterwards, there will be members of the media who are there, especially the national media, who will ask me a horse-race question or some kind of sensational dynamic going on that does not connect to the lives of the people that we all just had a chance to listen to and to meet. So this is kind of like the question you asked about the disconnect between Twitter and what we see in these town halls. I think more engagement on those fundamental issues.
