This is narrative writing. It wasn’t in the ‘heat of competition’ it was in essence collusion of traditional and modern media with the opposition party in order to discredit and undermine a presidency they disliked.

Oh, we can’t prove the emails are genuine… but they had no problem taking evidence against their disfavored candidates at face value.
