it’s an irrelevant detail.
I know that, and in the hometown media, it’s already playing out with deferential treatment. WE DO SEE HOW IT IS PLAYING OUT is my point.
It does also matter what comes of it in a month, but at the -moment- the wheels of minimization are already turning. See them now, AND later too, sure, but see them now in the moment. THIS is where the greatest damage is done. This is the moment where the press either licks boots or chases a very real story that would otherwise be chased.
Justice wouldn’t likely be served by the press hounding this, but that’s what the press DOES to the powerful, right? Holds them to ‘account’? Well the ‘account’ so far is already minimized, nothing to see here, move along.
