We hoped the rest of the media would follow. They didn't. I don't regret trying.

The site had good coverage, especially by
@LEBassett. But calling it entertainment seemed misguided at the time and painfully wrong now. -
Why do you think CNN had him on all day?? The media made trump. They didn't have to. We said ignore him. He should have been relegated.

Or he should have been taken seriously as a threat to our democracy and human decency. Not mere entertainment.

When it was clear the media was not following our lead in relegating him to the side, we moved him to pol and appended our editor's note.

We could have covered him like normal like the rest of the media and saved ourself the heat. I'm proud that we tried, sorry you disapprove
