    C'mon, @LaSalleAve, you don't find it curious that in the course of a week, nearly a dozen women all decide to reveal the same secret they've been keeping about Trump for years? You don't find it curious that in terms of actual minutes in air time, the Trump accusations have gotten more than 5x the coverage of the Wikileaks? You don't think the media is taking an active interest in who wins, even though the leaks about HRC speak volumes more about fitness to be president than those against Trump?

    The Wikileaks things is not a sexy story. It's not national enquirer worthy. That's what the majority of dumb ass Americans will click. And are you really saying that it's a coincidence the women came out right before Election Day but it's not that the wikilieaks stuff did? Regardless, that's not the point the point is media is owned by corporations, corporations care about money. Why is Fox News all of the sudden now running these sex allegation stories like crazy? Because it's juicy and people are reading it. The email and Wikileaks stuff is relevant but boring and does not capture the short attention spans of the modern day dumb ass American.

    Why does it have to be sexy for the media to do their job?

    Wiki leaks is far more damaging material than a pussy grab comment and frankly, 'ore serious to our country.

    This has been answered. Because sex sells. it always has. If Hillary fucks one of her male staffers, you won't hear donald trumps name on the news for a week. Have you heard the saying that ususally the simple answer is the right one. So what's more plausible, sex sells, or that every media member in the US including fox news, is in cahoots to get hillary elected.

    You guys are just fucking with us now aren't you?

    That's not an answer it's an excuse.

    The media's job is not to "sell" anything. It is their job to Report.

    They are reporting it its just not getting the same amount of time because not as many people give a shit. And I explained the answer to your first question. Ratings and Money. It's really that simple. I never said it was right, it's just the way it is.

    Right so dont give them a pass. They are Left Wing hacks, (most of them).

    Corruption is far more "sexy" than pussy grabbing.

    That's a sort of false equivalence right there. They report on things that get ratings whether they are republicans or democrats. Remember how much they reported on Bill Clinton and his sex stuff. And hell, that was before the continuous news cycle. Our news networks are in embarassment in some aspects with how they report on things but they do it for money, not to push liberal agenda. This of course is as a whole. MSNBC is left leaning, Fox is right leaning and CNN is the most down the middle.
