Trump-Putin summit starts on red carpet, ends in confusion
Trump-Putin summit starts on red carpet, ends in confusion
By Dave Lawler

Why it matters: President Trump didn’t get the ceasefire he came for, or the public commitment he wanted from Vladimir Putin to meet next with Volodymyr Zelensky. The leaders scrapped a planned lunch and departed early — but not before both declared the meeting a success.
Between the lines: It’s not hard to see why Putin likely left Anchorage satisfied. Images of Trump applauding as he walked down the red carpet were beamed back to Russia, and around the world.
The other side: Trump insisted that progress was made on a number of issues, though not on the “biggest” one, without offering any specifics.
Friction point: The inconclusive outcome might be most vexing to the party that was not in the room.

As Legum notes,
"Notably, in the piece, Allen and VandeHei cite conversations with 'Trump advisers,' 'a longtime Trump aide,' and 'Trump aides' concerning Trump's record over the first six months. There is no mention of views expressed by Trump's critics or even anyone not working for Trump."
So much for the vaunted "objectivity" of Axios as it reports on the Trump presidency.
And it's not just Axios, though they're an egregious example of media sell-out.
Legum notes that last week, the "objective" Axios team Allen and VandeHei wrote,
"President Trump, in terms of raw accomplishments, crushed his first six months in historic ways," the pair wrote in a piece published last Wednesday.
But given Trump's very low approval ratings, the "objective" Axios team faced an explanatory challenge: why the strong disapproval? They met it by saying that Americans "seem tired of all the winning."
"The biggest lie in media is the one that it tells about itself.
Journalists at many mainstream media publications insist that their coverage is objective and unbiased. This isn't true.
Two of the biggest purveyors of this lie are Mike Allen and Jim VandeHei, the co-founders of Axios."
