I watch excerpts online and they say his name dozens of times in them.

(12,447 posts)It only feeds the personality cult. When a media outlet has an article on something stupid he does, they usually have some stock picture of his orangeness. Instead, they should have a picture of a different president in a similar situation, for comparison and contrast, to provide perspective and context, something journalism should be doing anyway. I fear the ubiquity of his image in the media serves the same function as pervasive wall posters and bigger-than-life statues in authoritarian regimes.
