How long has the media been keeping tapes like this under wraps?

As much TV as the guy does, I'm sure there's tons of other footage out there.

But, as a member of high society in Manhattan, Trump has always been given a pass by the infotainment media. For instance, remember how much Barbara Walters used to brag about her friendship with him and invites to his parties, while making excesses for his birtherism?

They've known for decades who he is, but they wanted to be part of the clique and have fawned over him.

I bet NBC has enough foul outtakes from the apprentice to fill a Ken Burns documentary.

1. Pacing themselves

There was some criticism of Hillary's campaign of not attacking soon enough and hard enough. I wasn't worried, because it is a campaign run by adults, who know how to pace themselves.

I think the media are doing the same. Build up until it becomes a tsunami.

2. This was discussed on the MSNBC extended coverage earlier

I bet NBC has enough foul outtakes from the apprentice to fill a Ken Burns documentary.

Apparently Access Hollywood claimed they had lots more video of Trump. No details were given. Contestants have claimed there are tapes of lewd and abusive behavior by him from out takes from the Apprentice but they are controlled by the producer of the show who is a friend of Trump. The commenters speculated that there will now be many calls for those to be released.

3. They don't call it the October Surprise for 'nuthin.

Just sayin'.

5. Seriously.

Early voting has started. They're kinda stuck with him, now.

4. Now it is reported that fundamentalist producer Mark Burnett is sitting on hours of Trump clips

Mark Burnett is the mega rich producer of reality TV shows like Survivor and The Apprentice.

Though his shows thrive on showing base, selfish behavior, he prides himself on the "Christian " content of his shows.

He also scolds Hollywood for their immoral programs and films. He has started a values based production company that is producing films, movies and TV shows that promote wholesome productive values.

Yet, his production staff says he has dozens of hours of footage of his star, Donald Trump, harassing women on his TV set.

Burnett refuses to release any of this footage, and has ordered his staff to not respond to press queries.

Because, of course, "good old family values". Therefore, Burnett has decreed that Americans have no business knowing the true character of their Presidential candidate.
