Yeah and I’ve never seen sexual harassment based on so little.
“Yeah and I’ve never seen sexual harassment based on so little.”
Here is my theory:
It was bait. That wasn’t supposed to be the real story. Politico got a vague tip from someone who knew this about Cain’s past and threw it out there hoping to hook the bigger story. If one woman was coming forward, surely several would. They were banking on the fact that Cain had a real scandal somewhere out there that would come forward. Meanwhile they retooled this story into 90 articles... waiting for someone to come forward.
Then, when nothing was happening, and they started becoming the object of ridicule, they walked it back.
Like I said, just a theory
