      This is exactly what Trump has been doing to whole media for ages - he picks the tune and they obligingly dance. Sad!https://twitter.com/robfordmancs/status/799984401509711872 …

      Think it's important to distinguish between writing about it as a news story and throwing out a few tweets on a Saturday.

      that's fair. I was reacting to stories on it coming from Reuters, CNN etc accounts. That's more what I meant.

      Trump's Hamilton spat is a distraction, as @robfordmancs notes, but it's working. Overshadowed Trump University in US as soon as he tweetedpic.twitter.com/Ral5FApc4G

          Some people insisting the Hamilton spat wasn't Trump's fault, but he chose to make it one by wading in

          Graphs don't show any affect on searches for "Trump University". Looks like same trend before/after.

          yes I'm sure liberals booing on Broadway is the best *possible* framing for a 1st amendment debate.

          No, the frame is Trump calling it harassment, which is a dangerous absurdity. Harassment is a legal crime.

          That's because one topic spiked a lot earlier and was finishing its run when the other topic spiked. @asabenn @robfordmancs
