Timing the release of relevant information for maximum impact is exactly what any self-respecting media organisation should do. Your statement only makes sense

Timing the release of relevant information for maximum impact is exactly what any self-respecting media organisation should do.
Your statement only makes sense if Wikileaks had similar information regarding the Trump (edit: or other conservative) campaign and refused to release it.
- nutjob2 7y agoYou conveniently ignore the "political impact against one candidate" bit. So your statement only makes sense if you assume that all journalists are trying to influence politics to the benefit of their preferred candidate in their reporting.
- tomp 7y agoMy point is, unless he also had info on Trump/Republicans, he couldn’t have impacted their campaign. So impact of just one candidate/party was inevitable. Then, optimise for max impact.
