The media gives their audience sensationalism because that is what attracts them to read/listen to the article. They make it entertaining. Most people are really not interested or have the background to wade through lots of figures, read all the dry litigation and bills, etc. This is what Hearst did. He sensationalized everything in his papers and since he owned a great deal of "media," this is what the public was exposed to. Result: the unnecessary Spanish American War.

I'm sure his documentary is pretty good, but I'm totally over all conservatives and liberals. They can all go jump off a cliff, if ya ask me. None of them are any benefit to me or my people. They're only a benefit to themselves and are one side of the same coin. They're useless. All they do is either tax you or nickel and dime you to death, while they stay on top the whole time.

In many cases the media didn't already have the information. It takes work to dig up information, and the best news sources for big-time investigations, like the New York Times, are having to make cuts because of drops in income with people not reading/buying newspapers as they used to. Do you subscribe to the NYT to help ensure that they'll have money for staffing? It was a huge multi-pronged push for the Washington Post to get out their wide-ranging book.

Funny how the news orgs dig up all these sexual harassment complaints this late in the race. Or maybe all of this is just made up by a smear campaign.

Trump's TV show the Apprentice was gaining top viewership years ago, it would make sense for someone who wants to sue him for money to step up and get money from him and the studios.

Now it just doesn't seem like they are legit or want, money, nor justice. They are simply paid and trained to perform a gig.

I could believe someone if they sued back then, but waited 10 years to come forward? And the allegations are just stupid phony script writing. Like Trump touched her on the back or shoulder than made up touching her breasts and etc. Why didn't she sue back then when he was the star of the show?

And almost all women trust each other including liars when they accuse men of harassment. It seems only men are the most fair because I could never stick up for a real rapist or fondler.

Unbelieveable.

True dat! All politicians regardless of political stripe are beholden to the 0.1%. They distract us by pitting ourselves against each other with side issues and steal our money.

Surprise. The media digs up dirt during presidential elections.

Don't discount the fact of intimidation when it comes to people in powerful positions. You might use for sexual harassment and then get blacklisted for jobs.

You really don't believe that Trump acta like a scumbag?

Hes going to get blown out in the general election anyway. Hopefully the women will get compensated by this scumbag.
