No matter who wins the presidential race, one thing was clear on election night: the media failed to self-reflect and self-correct after its Big Miss from 2016.

Hi Sharyl,
I know you recently started a parler account. (I have neither twitter nor fb-- nothing, no social media so can only reach you this way).
I noticed some reluctance on the part of a smart coder to join parler because he didn't like all the info they asked for up front (esp. phone #), and just now I came across this:

Frankly, I don't think parler is any more likely to contain "conspiracy theories and antisemitism" than twitter or any other platform but the fact that it was created by the owners of Cambridge Analytica definitely gives me pause.
Obviously as a journalist you need to be visible in many different ways, parler is just one, and apparently no better than the others. Just thought you should know.
all best,
shannon
Sharyl’s Admin. :
I received your update-missive today, @ 10:05 a.m.—after having not received it for 4 weeks, and having re-subscribed each week, but to no avail.
The glitch seems to be fixed.
Thanks,

You are so fair and let all voices be heard. I am also nonpartisan.but lean toward Trump. I look at the fact that if I. Was running the country I would do the same. I do not reward those that come illegal.I look at this as to what message are we sending to our children. What message do the illegals send to their families - that it's alright to cheat- lie to get your way. How can you balance a nation when you have no accurate acct. for one and to be checked for disease ECT. Just to give a rough idea.
