Major outlets change standards for hacked emails, protect Trump

[douglas9]

For weeks, major American media organizations — including The Washington Post, Politico, and the New York Times — have possessed internal Trump campaign documents. What do these documents say? We don't know because all three outlets have declined to publish the documents — or excerpt a single sentence.

None of the outlets even acknowledged that they had been sent the internal documents until after the Trump campaign publicized that it had been hacked by the Iranian government. Little has been revealed about the topics covered in the documents other than that they include a dossier exploring the vulnerabilities of Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH), who former President Donald Trump chose as his running mate.

Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung demanded the media keep the internal documents secret. "[A]ny media or news outlet reprinting documents or internal communications are doing the bidding of America’s enemies and doing exactly what they want," Cheung said in anhttps://popular.info/p/major-outlets-change-standards-for August 10 statement.

1. Must be very damaging information.

2. Had this happened when Biden was running or now with Harris, all of them would have published every word already.

I was hoping that whoever leaked the documents would send them to someone willing to publish them. It is certainly in the public interest for voters to know about Vance and his past behavior and actions that could affect him as VP and potentially as president since Trump could be in assisted care for dementia before any term would end.

4. Is everyone else as numb to the double standard MSM treats Dems vs RePutinicans?? I sure am.

Just tired of being infuriated.

5. They need to just come out and admit

they are MAGAts at heart...

6. Unpublished Emails, editorials, polls from these yahoos all say one thing. We're in it for the orange buffoon

7. I hate to be naive...

But what if these will be dumped later in Sept. or served up as an October surprise? Timing may be everything here. We will see....

8. News flash: Corporate media is a bunch of toadies

They didn't know it themselves until their toadyness dripped out from under their sogging wet million dollar suits and dresses.

9. This just really presses my hot buttons!

They railed day after day over every hacked email of the Democrats when Hillary was running. Nothing was too demeaning or too low to print, many with comment underneath it.

That they refuse to do the same to T just shows not only how far into the can they are for T, but also how scared, mealy-mouthed they actually are. No way should they call themselves Americans, let alone Patriots. In fact, people like Murdoch should be deported for the bad faith and bad works he's done to the U.S. If we'd get serious with these people, they could change. But we've let them get away with it for so long, they're like trump -- feeling they're totally above the law.
