One day you'll graduate kindergarten.



Only a matter of time. Do people really think deference to Biden overrides a network's wishes to get the first interview? Lol.

cool story you anti-semitic racist woman-abusing animal-neglecting pale pasty privileged lefty drain on the taxpayer (according to multiple sources familiar with your thinking)

They scheduled an interview with Biden before Tara Reade

What a recipe for a MeToo spectacle, the woman doesn't get to speak but the man does

I'm just not sure what sort of media you want. Do you want fast movement, possibly sacrificing the facts, or do you want slow and methodical? It seems to change based on the story. The woman's going to get interviewed by a major network in the next number of days.

Plus, pandemic coverage is a little more important than a 30 year old sexual assault allegation.

yep sounds about right. not surprised the misogynistic wannabe thug icepeon is babbling on like a bozo on how this is a good thing

One of the main takeaways the modern feminist movement has from the Clinton era is how 'shamefully' the media treated Juanita Broaddrick. NBC interviewed her but sat on the tape for 35 days until after Clinton was acquitted in his impeachment trial, intentionally spiking the story. Along with all the 'bimbo eruptions', the smears, digging into the women's pasts, the lack of credulity in the coverage, etc. Indeed, it marked one of the big turning points in diverging cable news into the partisan camps where political alignment dictated how they'd spin the stories without any shame.

Tara Reade's story was suppressed for 35 days give or take, and then even once it started making news- only after corroboration and evidence is piled on- the left-wing networks (everything but fox) still won't give her airtime and then in a slap to the face, decide that Biden gets to air his response before Reade even gets to make her accusation on their soapbox. How does it come that a woman who's willing to take for a month gets airtime after a man who refused to talk for a month?

First off, this is happening in the context of a deadly pandemic that has killed 60,000+ Americans so far.

It's been reported on. Outlets like the New York Times chose to do their own digging before running with it. That's a good thing. Would they have afforded the same good practices to Trump? Probably not. Then again, Trump has a history of allegations, and Biden does not.

The Business Insider scoop was 2 days ago. The Larry King call was 6 days ago. We'll hear about it.

Context matters in these cases as well. If the election were in a week I'm sure she would've been interviewed by now. In a similar vein, when multiple accusers come out in a similar time frame, that provides incentive for outlets to cover new allegations without doing the necessary leg work.

icepeon’s employer enters the fray

Today i learned that this isn't being reported on the scale it should be because the legions of journalists are so slammed writing corona stories 16 hours per day that it's impossible to give anything else any attention.

Interesting take.

Tara Reade is just a paid actor by the Koch brothers
