Another political candidate Catch-22
Crappy news outlet publishes anonymous charge against a political candidate.
If the candidate ignores the charge, it means they're "guilty," and through repetition, the charge becomes "fact."
If they do respond to the charge, then the big news outfits that wouldn't print the original charge declare that the candidate's response is news and spread the original charge much wider.
The "respectable" press become unpaid enforcement thugs for the screaming tabloid press.

It turns out the charge was true.
Yep, charge is true.
Foot in your mouth, fucktard.
Getting owned on Hotair will never be the same.
Love your moniker, says so much about you and your left wing rants.
Rant about how mean the big bad mean tabloids are. Funny, it's true. In case your forgot, it was a Tabloid that broke the Monica Lewinski scandal. Seems that rag was also telling the truth.
Poor little victim.
