------------------------------------------------------------ Tom Kludt just filed this scoop: (http://money.cnn.com/2016/05/22/media/michelle-fields-huffington-post-donald-trump/index.html?mc_cid=a04cde7149&mc_eid=[UNIQID]) Michelle Fields, the conservative reporter who had Donald Trump's campaign manager charged with battery in March, has a new job at The Huffington Post. Starting tomorrow, she's covering the election... With a specific focus on Trump and the GOP. Quite a shift from Breitbart and her former employers, The Daily Caller and PJ Media. HuffPost DC bureau chief Ryan Grim reached out to Fields about the job via Twitter earlier this month. Read Tom's full story here...

Baron responded: "Well, I'm concerned when any candidate calls journalists 'scum' and 'disgusting.' I don't think there's any place for that. I think we need to show respect both for the candidates, and I think the candidates should show respect for journalists who were just doing their jobs. I worry when those kinds of statements are made…" Baron also elaborated on reports — denounced by Trump supporters — that the paper assigned 20 reporters to investigate Trump. It was for the book the Post is producing about Trump, Baron emphasized, "in order to get it done quickly." He said "many of those reporters are already back to their original assignments."

Margaret Sullivan's first WashPost column Speaking of the Post: Margaret Sullivan's first media column is online now (https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/now-theres-one-more-reason-to-be-a-journalist--you-can-help-save-journalism/2016/05/22/1a2ead1c-1d39-11e6-b6e0-c53b7ef63b45_story.html?tid=a_inl&mc_cid=a04cde7149&mc_eid=[UNIQID]) and in print in the A.M. She's starting on an upbeat note: While "the journalism world has been turned upside down," she sees opportunity all around. "Given the challenges, what's needed most are journalists — of every age — who are willing to help figure out the future with passion, smarts and integrity." Read the rest here...

Over the weekend the cold war between Shari Redstone and Philippe Dauman turned hot. On Friday evening, (http://money.cnn.com/2016/05/21/media/sumner-redstone-viacom-philippe-dauman-cbs/index.html?iid=Lead&mc_cid=a04cde7149&mc_eid=[UNIQID]) lawyers for Sumner Redstone said the ailing 92-year-old mogul had decided to remove Dauman and fellow Viacom board member George Abrams as trustees. (And as directors of National Amusements.) Fortune's Peter Elkind broke the news. But I put a question mark in the headline because the decision is very much in dispute. Viacom, speaking for Dauman, called the moves "invalid and illegal" and alleged that Redstone is "being manipulated and used by his daughter" Shari. She denied that. As statements flew back and forth, she said "I fully support my father's decisions and respect his authority to make them." Here's our explainer... (http://money.cnn.com/2016/05/21/media/sumner-redstone-viacom-philippe-dauman-cbs/index.html?iid=Lead&mc_cid=a04cde7149&mc_eid=[UNIQID]) A soap opera with billions at stake This situation is so twisted. Viacom watcher William Cohan tweets: "How ironic that now Dauman's people are arguing Sumner is incompetent, just as Manuela Herzer has asserted." Back when ex-girlfriend Herzer was challenging Redstone's competency in court, Dauman rejected her claims and swore the sickly Viacom chairman was of sound mind. But now Dauman's camp is saying that Redstone "lacks the capacity" to remove him from the trust. What would you do if you were Redstone's lawyer? Michael Tu is using Dauman's past words against him: "The public statement made on Mr. Dauman's behalf attacking Mr. Redstone's capacity is disappointing and incorrect, as reflected by Mr. Dauman's own testimony given under oath less than six months ago that Mr. Redstone is as 'engaged, attentive and as opinionated as ever.' That is exactly the Sumner Redstone who made these decisions today." Of course, there is precious little evidence that the elder Redstone is engaged or attentive. He is barely able to speak.... Legal action next? One of the most disturbing claims this weekend, from Dauman's camp, was that Viacom's board members have been "denied access" to Redstone. Lead independent director Fred Salerno confirmed that he'd asked for a face-to-face with Redstone and been denied. This is an absolute breakdown in corporate governance. So what happens next? Lawsuits, presumably. It's "not clear what options Dauman has at his disposal," Elkind writes.

I'd bet $5 that "SNL" will find a way to bring Larry David's Bernie Sanders character back in the fall, even though it looks like the show will be spoofing a Clinton-Trump general election.

Nearly 6 in 10 registered voters say they have negative impressions of both major candidates." And I said: "Some of this is obviously due to mudslinging and trash-talking and truly wounded candidates. But it's not all about them, it's partly about us, the public. It's about our distrust of institutions. It's about our tendency more and more to spend time online with people only who agree with us. It's about our ability to find stories that feed into our beliefs about how evil the other side is. So how much responsibility do news outlets have to try to change this?" John Avlon said he believes the rise of partisan media has "further inflamed" things. Watch the segment w/ Avlon, Jane Hall and Carl Bernstein here...

Fleischer fired back: "I would never call that decency. That's not what it is. What it really is, is a Northeastern, 'Look down your nose at other people who are different' … That is disdain for the voters … The overwhelming majority of journalists, though they refuse to admit it, are biased. They're socially and culturally liberal. And Donald Trump offends them. And they went into journalism to protect the little guy against the big and the powerful, to protect people against those who would offend. So, it's intuitive and natural for them to be against Donald Trump, but it's bias..." He continued: "And one last point, Brian. Manhattan, 85-15 Democratic voting. It voted that way for Kerry. It voted that way for Obama, 85-15. Manhattan, where most journalists are from and many are taught, is one of the most narrow-minded, stereotypical places you could ever find." -- More from Fleischer: Lessons in Trump's communication style...
