...and a little bit of neither

If a tweet posts on the internet, and no one in the media reports on it, does it make a difference?

I've yet to hear anything about these tweets, except a mention of how many Trump has posted over the weekend, on any NPR news program this morning.  If the NYT is covering it, Maggie Haberman is not retweeting the tweet announcing the article.  I assume I won't hear about it on the evening news, PBS Newshour, or the like.

How hard is it to say?  Apparently it's impossible to even broach the subject.

In the last 14 hours, the President has threatened to arrest political opponents for treason, intimidated whistleblowers with "big consequences," called the free press "dangerous and bad" and echoed a prediction of civil war if he is removed from office. Guys, he needs to go now. pic.twitter.com/ItGGkjOJo6

And yet:  "The President posted a lot of tweets this weekend!" is all I'm hearing.

Apparently I'm not the only one:

Crowdsourcing this:

Running count of Senate GOP members who have issued a full-bore condemnation of “Civil War 2” and “Arrest my opponents”

If reporters aren’t flooding the zone with Senate comms staff, they’re doing it wrong. This is an important moment.

It's a wondrous hope; but I'm not holding my breath.
