re: #13 austin_blue

Here’s what I have noticed:

The shit comes off the fan so fast that what should have been scandalous (like the treatment of a war widow, family, and a friend who happens to be US Congresswoman) and been in the news cycle for a week, not even including the flat out lies told by the WH CoS, is, poof!, today, gone.

It’s uncanny. Drumpf and Kelly are suddenly off the hook because the outrageousness of today’s events have completely marginalized the putrid sack of shit from last week is moot.

It may not be planned, and I certainly don’t think it is, but it works well enough in today’s news reporting environment that it *is* extremely effective. There are simply not enough reporters available to maintain awareness of last week’s/last month’s/last quarter’s crap to maintain focus on it AND keep up with the current crap.

Whether it is intentional on the part of the WH or not, it’s working.

We have the collective attention spans of gnats. Way too much and way too fast.
