They seem to only focus on Trump when there is some salacious story. Russia conenctions :meh: Tax returns that could prove Russia connections :meh:

But sex and Trump seems to sell so this confuses me. Tiffany Doe is describing some really tantalizing details the news should love. They loved "grab 'em by the pussy", now we're talking oral sex by a minor? Anderson Cooper interviewed several accusers that had less validity than this civil suit but not a mention.
