Nothingburger

The Trump-Russia balloon keeps inflating daily with lots of hot air and unsourced rumors. There is some modest pushback which I have collected below. Not that you will see or hear these quotes on network news, CNN, MSNBC, the NYT, WaPo, PBS or NPR. Anyway, perhaps this innuendo balloon will someday burst and the whispering roaches will go scurrying into the woodwork ... not to emerge again until the 2020 election.

"I have not seen any evidence of such collusion ..."

"There is no there there ..."

"Bad news for the Trump-Russia tinfoil-hat brigade"

"Where's the beef?"

"Media using leaks as ammo in Trump's media assasination"

"Utter nonsense ..."

"No evidence of any collusion between the Trump campaign and the
Russians"

"It's a nothing burger ..."

"A path that leads nowhere"

"Nobody can locate the crime, but Trump acts as if there is one"

"There was no collusion, when does it end?"

Out Foxed

Here is a piece of news that cannot go unnoticed -- the Fox News network led all television networks in the ratings war for yesterday's election night coverage. And this is not just limited to the cable channels ... it also includes all the major network channels too! See: LA Times Story.

This is a very, very big deal ...

Afterward: Many years ago I heard (I think) the then-anchor,Tony Snow, who has since died, predict that Fox News would be number one in news broadcasting. This election night win is a big step in that direction. RIP Tony.
