Not at all KDOGG. But the Maddow hype complete with her Twitter Teasers and countdown clock and her American Idol/Ryan Seacrest bit... We will reveal all..... after the break.... silliniess. all for the revealing scandal that he paid 38 million in taxes, gives him and his supporters ammo that the media is out to get him.
I mean how many times do we have to hear about the MLK bust that TIME Mag said he removed from his office but was proved he didnt. So when he does get caught doing something bad, he is handed an other excuse along with all the polls and newsmedia saying he would be slaughtered in the election. and has another something to point to when he says the Media is lying.
Its like that Rolling Stone hype about the fake rape, or the Duke lacorosse players, or Tawana Brawley, or the fake Muslim attack that teen girl made up/ Or the Jewish vandalism done by that crazy liberal journalist. It causes good people to question if the victim is telling truth, and gives ammo to bad people who want to deny it. You can see this happening I am sure

Yup, 63 million Americans are just totally worthless, stupid idiots who are just dumb! Absolutely!

Uh Oh, now I am worried, Slate of all places agrees with me!
I apologize for being flustered,” Maddow said at the top of the hour, before confirming that her show had copies of Donald Trump’s federal tax returns, obtained by the reporter David Cay Johnston, to share with her audience. “In just a second we’re going to show you exactly what it is we’ve got,” she said, before launching, instead, into a 20-minute monologue. Maddow seemed uncharacteristically nervous as she wended her way though what could kindly be described as context and which I am unkindly describing as word salad, a long meander that was difficult to follow even without the distracting promise of a revelatory tax return at its end.
The longer Maddow went on, ever deeper into a conspiratorial thicket, the clearer it became that whatever tax returns Maddow had, they weren’t as juicy as the ones she was talking about. If she had anything that damning, she would have shared them from the start. TV is a ratings game, but an entire episode about highly damaging tax returns is just as likely to get you great ratings as milking the possibility that you have highly damaging tax returns and less likely to get you compared to Geraldo. Maddoweven went so far as to hold the tax returns back until after the first commercial break, as if we were watching an episode of The Bachelor and not a matter of national importance—because we weren’t, in fact, watching a matter of national importance, just a cable news show trying to set a ratings record.
In positioning it as a grand revelation, a vital step in comprehending Trump’s corruption, MSNBC created an exceedingly cynical spectacle. By playing into the network’s loyal liberal audience’s fantasy that there exists a Trump silver bullet, it instead delivered Trump a positive news cycle—the guy pays taxes! Who knew!—amidst the debacle of the American Health Care Act, along with more evidence that the media is aligned against him. The lesson? Don’t tell us you have news, just tell us the news.
