this is a little unrelated but does anyone know where i can find articles or reports that delve into the substance of the podesta emails rather than the circumstances surrounding the podesta emails? ive been looking all day and i can literally count on one hand the number of articles that report on the contents of the emails. and those dont even go very deep!
- danso 10y agoPretend you're someone who conducts a lot of daily life via email, e.g. messages related to your day job, setting up appointments, chatting with friends, etc, and imagine that someone has leaked 2 months of those daily emails as a public download. Now imagine you are someone else tasked with writing something that captures "the substance" of those emails. You've basically been asked to capture "the substance" of someone's life over a 2-month period. The reason why you don't see many "deep" articles about the content of the emails is because John Podesta is someone who is interesting to the public for a specific role: Clinton campaign manager. So the contents of his emails are analyzed in the context of the presidential race, not for any other kind of deep contextual analysis.
