2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThe Media Will Fight Each Other to Release More Dirt
on Donald "Crotchgrabber" Trump. Even as we read DU on this Sunday morning, newsrooms are busy looking for additional stuff to dump on Trump. Phone calls are being made. Video and audio archives are being searched. All of this is aided by people outside of the media who have access to additional dirty laundry to hang on Der Drumpfenführer. Trump's past victims are calling in with their stories, too.
Getting the beat on other media outlets is one of the favorite games played by newspapers and TV news outlets. I can guarantee that everyone in news media is hunting for the next shoe to drop on Drumpf. He's no longer a presidential candidate to news folks. He's now a target to attack, in the quest for ratings.
There will be dirt. It will be found. It will be disseminated as widely as possible. Not today, though. Today is speculation day about tonight's debate. Tomorrow. Next week. Right up to election day, you're going to see new revelations about the orange-haired rodent.
Count on it.
