      FOX EDITORIAL ROOM -Crap. Manafort found guilty. Cohen plead guilty. What do we do? -Bury it. -Can't. Too big. -Whatabout Hillary? -Never got convicted. -Should've! -Not enough. Anything else? -Illegal immigrant... -Go on. -From Mexico... -I like it. -Murderer! -YES! Go, go, go!pic.twitter.com/nmmb4nrxtC

      Under-appreciated aspect of propaganda: When there's bad news, give followers something else to focus on. Something to get upset about. A good Two Minutes Hate. Expect Fox and other Trumpist media to push this murder story as long as Manafort and Cohen are big news.

      Nicholas Grossman Retweeted Michelle Malkin

      Even non-propagandists in right wing media are pushing this murder case. A single murder of a random person, while tragic, is not a major national news story. Unless, of course, you're desperate to change the subject from a real national news story.https://twitter.com/michellemalkin/status/1032017594981576704 …

      Mollie Tibbetts was violently, permanently separated from her family and now an immigration law-breaker is in custody. Where's the Time magazine cover? https://twitter.com/FoxNews/status/1032009439186964481 …

      Fox News webpage still has the murder as lead story the next morning. And 9 related links at top of page, including video. One is "Trump bashes immigration after Mollie Tibbetts discovery." Manafort only mentioned in "should Trump pardon him?" context. Cohen not mentioned at all.pic.twitter.com/WcDZGHjw81

      Breitbart, of course, is all in on the murder story and connects to immigration laws. No mention of Manafort up top. Lower down says "no collusion" (as if this makes getting convicted of felonies less important). Only Cohen mention "clears" Trump and attacks Cohen's lawyer.pic.twitter.com/hX4YJ2HaUi

      President's Campaign Manager Convicted and President's Personal Lawyer Implicates President in Federal Crime are both major stories on their own. Big news now. Will appear in US history textbooks. Big international news too. Lead story on the BBC, the Economist, and Al Jazeera.pic.twitter.com/qFsEFfvn4N

      Fox, Breitbart, etc. bury major news in favor of a murder. 17,500 annual murders in US. 48 a day. Many tragic stories, but not major news. Why push this one? Illegal immigrant murderer. White girl victim. Perfect fit for their identity politics, and they need a distraction. (END)

      Nicholas Grossman Retweeted Mark Berman

      PS: And here's Newt Gingrich giving away the game. "If Mollie Tibbetts is a household name by October, Democrats will be in deep trouble." The cynicism is overwhelming. They see their viewers/voters as easily manipulated bigots.https://twitter.com/markberman/status/1032265471297564673 …

          Newt, Tucker, Ingraham, Fox, and the GOP will sink to any depth to try to distract Trump's base from the fact that The President of the United States is now an unindicted co-conspirator to violate campaign finance laws for the principal purpose of influencing the election.

          Why is there no mention that the suspect was in the employ of a prominent GOP owned business?
