For the record dislike this headline, which I wrote, because I do not thing the news media needs to "wake up," I think they know exactly what they are doing. But I am bad at headlines so this one was too generous.

If they haven't woken up by now, all I can do is assume that they think they will somehow benefit from him getting elected. But what is going to happen is this: Trump will use Peter Thiel to sue every non-far right media org in sight. The New York Times will be among the first to get hit with Trumpian, Thiel-driven lawsuits.

There will be Gawker-type lawsuits all over the place. The amazing thing about so many people, including many in the media, is that they refuse to believe Trump will do all these terrible things we are predicting, even though his track record clearly shows that he will.
