The thing to understand about the National Enquirer...
…is you didn’t have to buy it to read it.

You didn’t even have to consider buying it to read it.

All you had to do was stand in the grocery store checkout aisle and there it was, with pictures and big headlines promising huge exclusive stories.

So even if you were just standing there, the chances it might subliminally affect you are notable.

Hillary Clinton, a crook?

Hillary Clinton, deathly ill?

Donald Trump, the victim of a set up?

All of these things could be communicated without even an actual word being said.

And given the margin in the swing states in 2016, the subliminal impact of tabloid headlines on possible voters was much more substantial than you or I might want to admit.

ON EDIT: What Trump sought to use the Enquirer for as free advertising and disinformation was the same as what the Russians did for him with social media. Two different types of media but same intended result.

The thing to understand about the National Enquirer...
…is you didn’t have to buy it to read it.  you can steal it

You didn’t even have to consider buying it to read it. you just put your hand on the cover and absorb it

All you had to do was stand in the grocery store checkout aisle and there it was, with pictures and big headlines promising huge exclusive stories.

So even if you were just standing there, the chances it might subliminally affect you are notable. only if you are a low IQ dummy who’s brainwashed and can only listen to the party lines.

Hillary Clinton, a crook?  most definitely and a liar.

Hillary Clinton, deathly ill?  we should be so lucky

Donald Trump, the victim of a set up? most definitely, the left is deathly afraid he will get elected again and spoil their plans to destroy America  :thatsright:

The thing to understand about the National Enquirer is that whatever help it may have given Trump doesn't begin to rival what other media outlets do to help democrats, explicitly, implicitly, "subliminally", or by whatever method you care to name.

It is simply fodder for low information people to glance at while they're stuck in a line at the checkout.

What has Tommy Carcetti's knickers knotted? Did he flunk a breathalyzer or drug test?

You didn't think Satan was going to give her the adrenachrome recipe for free, did you?

Her problem is that she didn't phrase what she wanted in return as carefully as she should have. Leave wiggle room in a contract and the Devil will take advantage of it every time.

You don't have to buy it but you can. You can even subscribe to it. I have.

I worked on a project team once where a bunch of us all pitched in and got a subscription that we had delivered to the office and we'd leave it in the break room for the whole project team to share.

Bat Boy is real!

29. Seth Abramson points to Saudi funding of the catch-and-kill stories.

Which is not illegal, dipshit, or we about to press charges on a whole, helluva lot of moonbat journalists who "caught and killed" the Hunter Biden story when Trump wins.

Wanna play? I'm down.
