“Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is often dismissive of the press — more so than other Republicans. DeSantis attributes his stiffarming to reporters he claims consistently peddle misinformation about his legislative agenda because of their own opposing agendas. In comments Friday during a swing through Iowa, DeSantis indicated that this media strategy will likely carry over to his expected White House bid. The GOP has ‘to stop worrying about being called names by the media and the left. Just do what’s right, speak the truth, and you can cut through the BS,’ the governor said, detailing his approach to the ‘legacy media’ in response to a question from Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds.” (03/14/23)
