The internet is 24/7 and more people will be paying attention than you think.

Agree. He got the ear of the President. Strike while the iron's hot!

Looks like WaPo straight-up defamed him. I’d sue - as the Scaramucci incident shows, that is an effective way to putting a stop to the MSM’s libelous activities.

What you say is true in the old print radio tv media model. But this is Internet only and therefore takes extra time for tv to catch up to it fer it gets a ton of hits.

New paradigm so old rules likely do not apply

I’d say this is a great day to break it, because it’s not 90% of the people who are checked out, it’s 90% of the media. The people are still watching, but the media has no one available to refute O’Keefe. So now everyone will spend all of the long weekend talking to their friends about it, and the media can’t stop them.

Great guy, bad tactics, unless there’s something I don’t know (likely). WORST day of the week to release news of a scandal is FRIDAY, best day MONDAY. Worst day of the year to break it - Friday before a Holiday.

That was under the old news regime. You think the MSM is going to air (or even discuss) the O'Keefe video?

Getting it out on Friday means that millions of conservatives will see it on Friday morning via social media (like FR) and will be passing it around to people they know. It will be discussed over the weekend at 4th of July get-togethers.

That’s such common knowledge among even us non-media people, that I can’t but believe that he must have a reason for it. There’s no way that he wouldn’t know this adage.

It’s why President Trump should pull CNN’s press credential TODAY!
