I guess how I feel about this depends on what they consider influencers and content creators.

Something like the Majority Report is just a youtube channel, but they do a better job of reporting news than a lot of actual traditional media outlets and I'd be interested for them to actually have someone there with access.

Honestly, I do have most major news outlets blocked whetever I can, whether it be Fox, CNN, MSNBC etc. I just can't be bothered to wade through all the corporate spin to get to any of the actual substance that might appear. So it's a smart move probably by the administration to embrace social media even if it exposes them to a less controlled media environment.

They're in desperate need of turn out since they've alienated huge swaths of their voting base. It won't fix their main problems (Israel support) but might scrape in a few more votes.
