WASHINGTON: Call it 'Trump Cam'. Trump, Trump, Trump. And more Trump. That was all that news viewers were going to see on Monday (Apr 3) if they switched on any of the leading United States television networks during Donald Trump's trip from Florida to New York
Actually, most of the time the disgraced former president and current leading Republican presidential candidate was not even visible.
Filling hours' worth of airtime with almost nothing to report beyond the images of Trump's house, cars and airplane, cable news anchors alternated between speculating and reminding viewers that they should not speculate.What charges will he face at the arraignment on Tuesday? No one knew. On Monday afternoon's showing of"Trump Cam", that did not matter. The only thing that mattered was to talk about Trump.
Much of that was fictional, created thanks to his starring role in the staged reality TV series"The Apprentice".The more outrageous he became - starting with the false conspiracy theory that Barack Obama was not born in America and ending with watching his supporters storm Congress on Jan 6, 2021 - the better the show sold.
