7. K & R... sadly, the media will apply double standard & cover just long enough to call it "old news".
"We didn't report about it on the night it happened, so it's no longer relevant, no matter how upsetting it may be to some working class voters, who everyone knows are supposed to be for Hillary anyway!"

Carefully constructed Media definitions:

TV Journalist = Deserving Rich

Politician = Deserving Rich

Working Class = white (and thus, not offended)

Educated black man = Elite

Liberal ethnic groups = Elites

Working Class black man = Undeserving Poor

Working Class black woman = welfare cadillac

Working Class white woman = Middle class

Poor white man = NASCAR dad

Upper Class white woman = Security mom
