If Lehman's memory is accurate, this means that this entire thing was fabricated and THAT is big.

I've posted similar comments before, but what is BIG on FR does not necessarily translate to BIG in the world.

During the Clinton era, Foster's death was BIG, Travelgate was BIG, Lewinsky was BIG, but nothing was that BIG with the populace at large.

Morally this is BIG, practically ???

Yeah, I had a rude awakening regarding the general populace.

I hadn't watched Channel 5 (NBC) news for years. I, like Pauline Kael about Nixon, assumed no one else did.

The domestic partner was interviewed about a local election. He was on screen for maybe 30 seconds. Everyone I ran into mentioned it to me, and he was accosted by neighbors he didn't know asking him about it.

I guess people do still watch mainstream news media.

Well, duh!
