I'm writing this posting Tuesday at 11:30 pm from the Media Pavillion, a two-story tent adjacent to the Fleet Center built for members of the writing press. Each news outlet has its own area separated by curtains within the Pavillion complete with nice chairs, long tables, cables to hook up computers, Chinese food, water bottles, and various forms of caffeine. When the Convention takes place each evening, the writing press members watch the Convention on TV sets in the Pavillion. I noticed that the New York Times watches C-SPAN, probably for its unedited direct coverage. Some other outlets watched CNN, which is more pundit-coverage than speech-coverage. Could that lead to press group-think? Even more interesting...
