For Star subscribers: The news media is much bigger than the legacy TV stations and newspapers that some Republican candidates complain about. And it's OK if their reporting influences elections.

On one hand, news outlets like the Star are smaller and financially weaker than we were in previous elections, and that means we are less able to cover candidates like we used to.

It’s essential to her bio, and, as if to emphasize her conversion, she made stomping out of TV interviews a signature of her primary election campaign. That may sound sensible to many readers, and it’s fine when she’s asking news outlets to be “honest and fair.” But to me, telling journalists not to try to “influence” the election makes no sense. When we report a story about a candidate, or about an issue, it ought to influence voters’ thinking. Otherwise, what’s the point?

But many of us have said Hobbs should have debated anyway. This may well influence the election, and that’s OK. Would Lake really object to that sort of media influence?The novice Republican candidate for attorney general, Abraham Hamadeh, has constantly protested coverage of his race on social media. Since the primary election Aug. 2, Hamadeh has tweeted 22 times about the Arizona Republic. “The failing Arizona Republic hates us,” he tweeted Sept. 21.

In an Oct. 27 video with state GOP Chair Kelli Ward, Hamadeh implausibly claimed: “I simply no longer care what the media thinks about me.” For someone who says he doesn’t care about the news media, or who thinks it is failing, Hamadeh sure seems obsessed with us and how we cover him. But Lake acted in a Fox News interview Sunday as if the network she was on is something other than the major media institution it is.
