If the media ignores it, how will it matter?

Look at what has been released so far, and none of it sticks

But some lady for 35 years ago says Trump groped her on a commercial air plane flight, but last year she said it was someone who kinds looked like Trump and wasn’t sure, now a year later, she is now sure...... Whatever... but yet this is news

I share your frustration! But it does not help when folks on this site take innocuous email leaks and blast us with "Bombshell!" or "Breaking!" and make us all look like kooks.

Just today, I saw breaking-bombshell-proof threads that Hillary ordered Scalia's assassination and is rabidly anti-Muslim and anti-Black. Hillary may very well be a murderer and a bigot; but those claims were not supported in any way by the cited leaked emails.

We have to be better than those we seek to defeat. And becoming just as unhinged as our DU counterparts does not get us there.

I was wondering too. It’s a cumulative effect. And don’t just go by mainstream media’s reaction. We all have to keep hammering away with the truth. And they can put pressure on their lying press in America, but overseas press has a bit more leeway to mention it, particularly in Britain where Assange is, and in Australia where he’s from.

None of it stick because every time something gets released they hire some lunatics to generate something for the media to talk about.

Unfortunately, even the conservative media then spends all their time debunking the lunatics and barely touches on what has been released.

Exactly..the media has a motto, if they dont report it..it never happened..so like Ive been saying, they can have video of Hillary Clinton heiling Hitler and calling for the extermination of Jews, if the media doesn’t show the video it never happened

I think we kind of need to take a step back and consider the election and all these emails to be two different things.

First, I believe Trump can win on his own, he doesn't need the emails. He just needs us to turn out enthusiastically for him to win.

Second, all this information is sticking. It hasn't destroyed her yet, but as of now, nobody seriously argues that she isn't corrupt, not even democrats. About the best they can defend her is that she hasn't been arrested yet. Everyone can see as plain as day that she is getting special treatment and that others would be in jail for what she has done.

Third, people's perceptions don't change overnight. but when it does, it becomes a stampede. We don't know which straw will break the camel's back, but eventually, one will.

Forth, there is value in these emails way beyond this election. For years into the future, the corruption will be exposed and there will eventually be real consequences with people getting fired, democrats losing support, even the party breaking up. We are just getting started, and the press doesn't have enough control to stop it.
