so I get what you're saying but "the media" covered the potential for bribery relatively little vs emails.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ That's a quantitative assertion. Are we talking on the reporting end? On the placement end? on the traction end?

Cause, like the traction thing i really don't think was in NYT or WaPo's control. I think media got played.

There are two separate assertions. One is that news orgs poorly directed coverage. I dispute that they ever had any real control.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Front page is dead(ish). Everyone just shares shit on twitter & Facebook.

Sure, placement on front page matters. But in the environment we're in, it's also bypassable.

the fact that NYT found themselves jumping from silly thing trump said to silly thing was a failure of editorial agency.

you've been in newsrooms and so have I. We know how this happens. But we like the NYT because we trust them for context.
