The “concerned” sites also thought that Hillary’s speeches were big news and disqualifying. The media gave up on them right after the convention and the only thing that kept them alive at that point was Trump thinking he could get some political mileage out of the “controversy.”

I recall being in an airport in 2016, and all the TVs were tuned into CNN, which was showing an empty podium waiting for Trump to come out and give some explanation of where his (now defunct) charitable foundation had “spent” its funding.

At the same time, Hillary was giving a speech on improving job opportunities for the handicapped. That really told me a lot about what the networks considered “newsworthy”.
