THE DUMP
I don't want this blog to turn into Journalism 101, but there's something that some my readers don't know about politics: the Friday night news dump.
The theory works like this; if you have information that has to be released at some point, release it on a Friday after 5PM EST. It follows that this is after the nightly news deadlines and subjected to cable news and the weekend papers. Most voters are famous for not reading the papers or watching cable news on weekends, they're too busy getting drunk and beating their kids. Well, not so much now that football season is over, but all the same....
In any event, that's why you see massive document dumps on Friday nights.
Congratulations, Grashopper.....you are learning. Had you have only done this LAST friday.....
