The Epstein Missing Minute

It's closer to three minutes.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

BadTux has an explanation for a missing minute, but I don't know if it works for three minutes.

The journalistic question is why is a small news organization like Wired beating the big guys on this.

Teen Vogue is also thumping them. And I am old enough when Nixon couldn’t explain 18.5 minutes missing from one of the Watergate tapes.

Why are the big news organizations behind the curve on major trump* stories is because their CEOs and boards of directors are bought off. They are really no different than the CEO and boards of Chevron or any other big corporation.
