So I'm just so impressed with how you do it.

And you have colleagues who do it, too, who do it the wrong way and you do it the right way.

So grateful to you as a consumer for that.

Yeah.

We could go through, and we'll talk about some examples, but we could go through, if you and I sat together, read the New York Times or watched the Today Show,

We'd find a million examples, and some of them are extremely subtle.

Word choice, what's not included, how far down something is.

But some of them are not subtle at all.

The fact that Melania Trump has never been on the cover of Vogue is not subtle.

There's nothing subtle about that.

It's definitely not that she's not pretty enough.

It's definitely not that she doesn't have a glamorous job.

It's definitely not that they've never put a political figure on the cover of Vogue.

So that one's not subtle.

As you understand it, and I've worked in newsrooms more than you have, but you're a great student of this and you talk to a lot of people.

As you understand it, and I get asked this all the time, and as much as I think about these things, I don't know the answer fully.

Where does this come from?

What generates ridiculous, subtle, or big things?

Is it, well, just break it down.

Where does it come from, the liberal media bias?
