The long-time journalist and broadcaster told CNN the president's social media output was 'ridiculous, but...unrelenting.'
Long-time journalist and broadcaster Dan Rather said President Donald Trump’s media output—and especially his Twitter activity—had left Americans overwhelmed and unable to engage in national politics.
As reported by Real Clear Politics, Stelter asked how the White House could"effectively respond to this rising threat of extremism on the internet” if they did not know how the online world worked. “With all respect, I don't think his age, 72, is an excuse for not keeping up. He's basically anti-science,” Rather continued. “When you talk about what he says about climate change, that's in a wider context of this administration led by the president who is downgrading science at the very time we need to be leaping forward, keeping up with science. They're cutting research and that sort of thing.
