WASHINGTON D.C. - You often hear about media narratives, but what exactly is a narrative?
A narrative is essentially a story or a particular way of presenting information that shapes how people understand events or issues. It often includes a specific angle, language, and repetition to influence public perception.
A perfect example of a media narrative can be seen in the Harris campaign's strategy. They instructed their staff and spokespeople to consistently describe Trump and his vice-presidential pick as "weird."
Take a look at this video below. You'll notice that all the guests on network news, and even news anchors themselves, repeatedly use the term "weird" when referring to Trump, Vance, and their supporters. This consistent use of language helps to create a unified narrative, influencing how the audience perceives these individuals.

🚨The Village of Birch Run, Michigan doesn’t record or live stream their public meetings. They’re not legally required to, but I think it would be something good to do for transparency. I talked to the village president who did not want to touch the issue.
