I remember back in the eighties when Australia’s weather conditions were such that they suffered a plague of mice. There were hordes of them everywhere.
A tarp-covered haystack would be vibrating with mice. The farmers would send out the cats who, in a very short time, began ignoring the mice. Their senses were overloaded.
That’s what I think is happening today. It’s like frenetic Whack-a-mole or being unable to deal adequately with issues Trump tweets before three more come along. It’s gotta be bananas.
In this case, it’s really just Media 101. Just as in the “Front Page” days, an editor is telling reporters, “That accusation against the (Congressman, Senator, Actor, whatever) sold big time! Get me more of that!”
Sharks.
