As I argued, that's what Wikileaks did: dropped emails like candy from a pinata in front of news outlets who can't resist.
I don't disagree some of it was news, but most of it was truly trivia or only of interest to historians; meanwhile ELECTION.
i think the hard thing is if you take a pass, FOMO. And taking a pass could be considered an act of partisan judgment.
That's what getting played systemically looks like. Drip drip juicy stuff playing to process weakness—meanwhile, the ball!
I wrote about this about Wikileaks before the election. I'm all for true whistle-blowing. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/05/opinion/what-were-missing-while-we-obsess-over-john-podestas-email.html …pic.twitter.com/ONFuQw9saQ
