The fact that we consider anyone “winning” or losing a press conference or any political argument shows we have become too partisan and the largest percentage of that responsibility falls on the media. There is little to no difference between political coverage and the coverage of a sporting event these days. The only big difference is sports fan are less hostile to one another...sadly.
You had me until you started playing the blame game. The responsibility falls to the culture, and by that I mean the media, the politicians, and a general public that responds to this sort of 'Who's the winner? Who's the loser?' binary thinking. Gotta win every given moment!
thissucksallover fair points...that being said, there is a very clear correlation between the advent of 24 hrs news media and the current political atmosphere. Polarized and siloed view points constantly getting their confirmation bias. IMO this lays mostly at the feet of the news media for playing to our partisan nature. One could argue these always existed and it is simply technology that allows for quicker access to this confirmation bias. Regardless the media plays a significant role imo.
@@Mypromiselive Something had to foster that culture though. Media outlets know that they make the most money when they present these issues as an "us vs. them" dichotomy. The more people see this sort of coverage regularly, the more this culture grows. Obviously media is simply capitalizing on an inherent trait in human nature (tribalism) that likes to see things presented this way, but only one of these things can change substantially enough--and quickly enough--to make a difference: the media. Human psychology isn't something we can just decide to reform, humans are always going to think this way; humans suddenly shifting away from tribalist instincts would be a major evolutionary step in the human psyche, and that's not something that's going to happen any time soon. The thing we CAN change is the way we present these issues, and that falls directly on the media. Capitalizing on humanity's proclivity toward ingroup and outgroup mechanics has tossed rocket fuel on this already incendiary human trait. Constantly catering to it has given it a platform and power. Sure, the issue has existed since the dawn of humankind, but the rise of inflammatory and highly partisan media outlets has given that instinct the power to throw our entire governmental process into the meltdown we see today. Even if the solution here is to stop paying so much attention to media or to take all of it with a grain of salt, the root of the problem still lies with the media's exploitation of the tribal nature of the human psyche. And the media are the only people who have the power to make these changes, because they're the ones who are making the decisions to present information in this format in the first lace.
Yeah I doubt we would be so partisan if the democratic party's agenda didn't revolve around open borders and socialistic policies. But hey keep pushing that garbage if you want. (Duckkkkk, and cover) 😂

As I am from Germany I might be able to give different perspective on this. The press conferences are organized quite different in Germany. First it is organized as an association composed of different news outlets and they decide who they invite to question, they decide what to put on the agenda and who should ask the next question. Usually there is not only the main press secretary but press secretaries from different ministries to answer specific questions. It is also no uncommon for the invited to hand out written statements. They are quite lengthy as well. Usually about 45 min to an hour. Regarding cameras it is not common to show the journalists. This takes away a lot of the drama. On the downside they are really boring and not many people like to watch them.
@@Fifthelement203 I've seen some excerpts from White House press conferences myself, in particular about foreign policy and IMHO some of the flaws outlined in the video are not only due to certain characters attending but are rooted in the way the format is setup. I wanted to share how a different setup might change the situation.
@@3dpaper - No, I go out of my way to review purported opposing points of view to see if I actually disagree with them. In this case, agreeing/disagreeing is irrelevant, but the video is so boring, I'd rather watch a White House press conference. 😂😂😂

Eric Bischoff did a Ted Talk on this. News/Politics (they're on the same team) is a giant wrestling pay-per view now. It's designed to make you angry or reaffirm your beliefs but NEVER to make you think. Cheer for your wrestler and put your credit card # down, or in this instance, vote and pay your taxes.
Crazy to think that this series is in its fourth season. Just wanted to say that I have absolutely loved all of these videos. The state of American media in the 21st century is always something that has fascinated me. I also gained a completely new perspective on the White House press briefing I had never even thought of. Hope you can keep up the good work!
Our government is so far removed from "we the people", that is seems likely our Constitutional Democracy is truly in peril. What we need is complete and absolute truth regarding every last thing our government has done "in our name" from its inception up to today. Hold nothing back, let us know what these representatives of "we the people" have been doing in our name. Only then can we truly hold the crooks accountable and start to fix this mess.

You guys will really love this video then: ruclips.net/video/n2RCT6Li4UQ/видео.html. In it, Eric Bischoff, long time wrestling promoter, tells us how the news media has learned from professional wrestling and is now using the same tactics...
This was great to see vox play one straight. I think they complimented Sarah Huckabee with the wrestling sign. "Trump finally invested in something good!" Well done VOX.
Not a Trump fan, but they ARE the enemy of the people. Big news media have done horrendous things like support wars and proxy wars. Just have a look into how embedded media influenced US voters to support the war in iraq and how the media knew about the lies of WMDs, yet kept echoing it. Support small media companies without agendas instead.
Vox criticized less press briefings from Trump, I wonder how they feel about Biden right now who does even less and has a predetermined list of questions
I like to watch wrestling every now and again, and I agree with your sentiment. It's fake and choreographed, but the physical display of lifting hundreds of pounds or performing precision acrobatic techniques without causing extreme harm to themselves or their opponents is entertaining. Of course, this is strictly my opinion.
I'd compare it more to theatre. In D&D nothing is rehearsed as much as, planned by the DM. The act of making up a fictional character/persona is comparable, but there's more fanfare in wrestleing, and D&D isn't as much dependant on violence.
I'm gonna help you out Dani, A mass majority of things can be explained in an analogy in wrestling. (Except for TOUHOU. If you can't find a perfect Analogy in wrestling Touhou is your other answer.)
He wins because he plays to his base, sticks to what he knows and ACTUALLY speaks like a person. Everyone else has been too busy riding the hate train to be even remotely competitive in any other arena besides Trump-hating.

CARLOS, YOU'RE FINALLY BACK I need you're input on CLIMATE CHANGE TOO I absolutely love your work, please never stop doing what you do. We need more people like you.
Did you like the fake Obama White House press briefing so one strand of evidence that Trump is racist that is not complete conjecture keep supporting the people that take advantage of you
Carlos, I’m glad for these videos that you make. They highlight not only what’s wrong with our current administration, but also the way that the media covers it. It reminds me that while a free media is a guardrail of democracy, we shouldn’t so blindly think of it as free of fault-it should also be criticized.
We should have PMQs, in Britain they have a session of Parliament where members of all parties get to ask questions directly to the Prime Minister, it happens every Wednesday.
I likened Trump's rallies (of which I went to one) back in 2015 as chances for political supporters to act like wrestling fans. I have never been proven so right. The one thing you need to focus on is that fact for his supporters it's not about politics. For them it's about having fun. Being the ignorant people they are, they don't have the critical thinking skills to get off the ignorance train when Trump drives it straight to the stupid station. It's like cheering for the Undertaker. He's the bad guy you like to cheer for, because you are hoping he puts on a good show of his villainy, just so you can see the hero win in the end. Hell, I love the Undertaker...however I also realize what his character is supposed to represent. He is after all...THE UNDERTAKER.
It is amazing to me how hypocritical the show is and how you are. Usain. It's not okay that he refers CNN as the enemy of the people. But you just called Trump a villain. You cannot be upset by someone doing something but being okay as long as it's your side doing it. This is why one day you will end up becoming the biggest joke of the century. And it's all on you
Does anyone remember when we had a president that allowed reporters to finish their sentences and spoke to people with kindness and respect? ...Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Hey Vox! I love your content and method of display, and I even recently submitted a survey for you guys, but the reason I consume your content is so that I can use it. However, I am unable to use information that I believe was tainted through a view of partisanship, which is very disappointing because I know that much of the information presented is accurate. It is hard for me to draw upon Vox as a credible source to someone with a polarized view of your content. I realize that nowadays it is becoming increasingly difficult to portray the current political system system in a positive light, but attempts and considerations for the viewer to see both sides would establish a sense of validity. Of course, I don’t know if this is the goal you’re striving towards; Vox could be only a method to promote leftist ideas and beliefs, which is fine, as long as it is portrayed and defined as such. Anyways, I still enjoy the content, I only wish it could be of more use to me.
The Goddamn Batman I’m a republican but I admire the European system. Instead raising taxes to only help certain people, why not give everyone the same basic services. This is why I support Trump because he was right, the working people were forgotten which is shown by the Obama admin, all his bills he passed were for poorer people. If a democrat came and did a universal health care and insurance policy, I’d be all for it, but they won’t do it. Ik u gonna think it’s stupid because it’s not all liberal, but this is my best shot
@@mlgprussian7115 You should check out Bernie Sanders if it's universal healthcare you care about. He is basically our only contender for president in 2020 that is for universal healthcare. I'll be voting for him when the time comes and I will do so happily
I lean more libertarian on many issues... I see the back and forth as a mediocre distraction from the real problems we face as a nation. even with my political position I still enjoy watching Vox videos so I have an idea of what the left thinks of the right because unless we can have a dialogue we will never make progress. I feel like we're in a shitstorm of meta news. Bringing up news in the news about the news is just becoming convoluted. We see this on both sides. It's like we're attacking a strawman while our nation suffers.
12:09 also, just keep them off balance. send someone else in Acosta's place to ask questions, have immigrants on the receiving end of his detainment policies show up to ask why it had to happen. If there's one thing a conman fears more than anything else, it's facing their former marks. remember the trump administration cannot think on their feet, they have one tactic and can't adapt to a changing situation. so simply forcing them to try to adapt puts the press briefing back on the presses terms.
Elis Andersson but that number may be high and the number of deaths is low compared to the shootings, Sweden is just a failed Far Leftist state, I’m hoping Europe can realize their mistake that they are making
White House people know that they are not good in answering the question of reporters. So when they switch to another question, then just think it's HUMILIATION....
It would have been so satisfying to see the media just once not take the bait and just not show up when they called a press briefing and watch them walk into an empty room.
" He has been made into a performer " that is exactly what has happened . The media and the telly has the power to mold the image of a person , they're literally ON 24x7 , barraging the audience with info , their form of info . If the media decides to showcase him as bold and charming , the audience will feel the same . If you portray him as irrational and a maniac , that image will be fixated in the minds of the audience . If you claim , that he is a laughing stock in the world , i.e because that's how he was portrayed by the media at home (usa) . The world doesn't know Trump , they got the image from the , yes , it's " Media " . The telly has the power to do character building or character Assassination , it can sway the opinions of the masses , narrate the news in their own versions . If you switch on the telly , you will notice , all the news channels have a different narration to the same story . All in all , world doesn't care about trump , if you portray him as a laughing stock , they will laugh , even at the most serious of remarks made by him . That's how the telly works
Press conference is about reporters asking questions and officials responding to them. The notion that reporters argue and debate with the official is ridiculous and pointless.

Hey Vox! I love your content and method of display, and I even recently submitted a survey for you guys, but the reason I consume your content is so that I can use it. However, I am unable to use information that I believe was tainted through a view of partisanship, which is very disappointing because I know that much of the information presented is accurate. It is hard for me to draw upon Vox as a credible source to someone with a polarized view of your content. I realize that nowadays it is becoming increasingly difficult to portray the current political system system in a positive light, but attempts and considerations for the viewer to see both sides would establish a sense of validity.
Of course, I don’t know if this is the goal you’re striving towards; Vox could be only a method to promote leftist ideas and beliefs, which is fine, as long as it is portrayed and defined as such.
Anyways, I still enjoy the content, I only wish it could be of more use to me.
Vox should have played "We are the Champions" when Trump walked in haha
Why are there always trump supporters in the comments of these videos as if theyve never watched a vox video in their life
They're dyslexic, they thought the channel was "Fox" not "Vox"
The Goddamn Batman I’m a republican but I admire the European system. Instead raising taxes to only help certain people, why not give everyone the same basic services. This is why I support Trump because he was right, the working people were forgotten which is shown by the Obama admin, all his bills he passed were for poorer people. If a democrat came and did a universal health care and insurance policy, I’d be all for it, but they won’t do it. Ik u gonna think it’s stupid because it’s not all liberal, but this is my best shot
@@mlgprussian7115 You should check out Bernie Sanders if it's universal healthcare you care about. He is basically our only contender for president in 2020 that is for universal healthcare. I'll be voting for him when the time comes and I will do so happily
Laura Beth and so shall i

Strikethrough is back! 🙌🏻
I lean more libertarian on many issues... I see the back and forth as a mediocre distraction from the real problems we face as a nation. even with my political position I still enjoy watching Vox videos so I have an idea of what the left thinks of the right because unless we can have a dialogue we will never make progress. I feel like we're in a shitstorm of meta news. Bringing up news in the news about the news is just becoming convoluted. We see this on both sides. It's like we're attacking a strawman while our nation suffers.
@The Goddamn Batman I believe you're goddamn right Mr Batman. Lol
"I lean more libertarian on many issues..." *sounds the self-proclaimed "neutral" intellectual alarm*
Or you could just be WRONG, Vox.
@The Goddamn Batman OK. I DO SEE dem morons as evil.
I like how it's all cut up and edited nicely so that I only get a left leaning biased report. Thank you vox
Preston Phillips it’s opinion...just like Fox News.
12:09 also, just keep them off balance. send someone else in Acosta's place to ask questions, have immigrants on the receiving end of his detainment policies show up to ask why it had to happen. If there's one thing a conman fears more than anything else, it's facing their former marks.
remember the trump administration cannot think on their feet, they have one tactic and can't adapt to a changing situation. so simply forcing them to try to adapt puts the press briefing back on the presses terms.
"HaHaHaHaaaaaa...No"
-CNN's Response to this video
It feels so weird to see all the people sitting next to each other.
How Trump wins press conferences ?? Simple cos i speak the truth.
Can we get and updated video for how the press conferences are going nowadays ?
🇸🇪🇸🇪Oh god, how i look down on american politics 🇸🇪🇸🇪
Oh god hiw I look down on Sweden's horrible rape problem.
@@The_13th_Hussar how about americas mass shooting problem
Elis Andersson but that number may be high and the number of deaths is low compared to the shootings, Sweden is just a failed Far Leftist state, I’m hoping Europe can realize their mistake that they are making
@@Dylan-ze6hw how are we failed exactly?
Elis Andersson ah don’t worry man. If you even slightly criticize the Right on the internet you will get ripped apart. Don’t let it get you down
Keep up the great work. Our family always watch the Strike Through Videos together 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
*What a pair of Drama Queens-both Trump AND this talking head...*
Came for the Vox, stayed for the Unreal Tournament SFX. Now I just wanna play UT
ORANGE. MAN. BAD.
show hog
im so glad that fight cage thing didnt last the whole video, it was really distracting
selective editing
true, these conferences are like a kids show for toddlers that leave on a cliff hanger so they come back and care.
Trump 2020

Nick Saxon wow you’re making such a difference. Thank you for your brave words
The brits compare their parliamentary drama to Shakespeare,and Americans compare their politics to wrestling. Like father, like son I suppose 😂
One day I just want all the reporters to show up and ask no questions at all.
Strikethrough is the only thing from Vox I'm actually willing to watch.
Deeply insightful video. Thanks for sharing
Very nice presentation buddy. Carry on
When I first saw this I thought it would be dislike material, but I am pleasantly surprised. Thank you Vox :)
The Dota 2 Megakill announcer 😂
I would have added Chris Christie vs the teacher clip, the key to his success.
Whats up with the dog, crying in the background xD. Its hilarious xd
First Vox video Ive enjoyed in a while. Seemed unbiased for once. Good job
First rule of governing: If you're in trouble, find an enemy.
White House people know that they are not good in answering the question of reporters. So when they switch to another question, then just think it's
HUMILIATION....
Great job Carl
great channel but the audio volume is all over the place from clip to clip
I like these videos, but the audio levels are all over the place.
This is Awesome!! You got CNN cutting promos and The White House bringing the chairs to press briefings 😂😂😂
Thanks for putting up a great show...it can get better if you can get the audio right...hate to modulate the volume at every edit!
This hits different during this pandemic...
Can’t wait to live through another 4 years of this again
It would have been so satisfying to see the media just once not take the bait and just not show up when they called a press briefing and watch them walk into an empty room.
" He has been made into a performer " that is exactly what has happened . The media and the telly has the power to mold the image of a person , they're literally ON 24x7 , barraging the audience with info , their form of info . If the media decides to showcase him as bold and charming , the audience will feel the same . If you portray him as irrational and a maniac , that image will be fixated in the minds of the audience . If you claim , that he is a laughing stock in the world , i.e because that's how he was portrayed by the media at home (usa) . The world doesn't know Trump , they got the image from the , yes , it's " Media " .
The telly has the power to do character building or character Assassination , it can sway the opinions of the masses , narrate the news in their own versions . If you switch on the telly , you will notice , all the news channels have a different narration to the same story . All in all , world doesn't care about trump , if you portray him as a laughing stock , they will laugh , even at the most serious of remarks made by him . That's how the telly works
one could say these confrences are some sort of unreal tournament
Press conference is about reporters asking questions and officials responding to them. The notion that reporters argue and debate with the official is ridiculous and pointless.
