(82,849 posts)But according to the Cokie Rule, since these tweets are "out there," the popular media don't have any choice but to report them as if they were true. At least, that's how it worked whenever a scurrilous rumor during the Obama administration blurped up out of the fever swamps of the Nazi right.
