Isn't it weird how the caravan isn't being talked about any more?

Anyway, I'm sure that the totally-not-Vichy New York Times and friends weren't only covering it because Republicans were talking about it, but because it seemed like a huge story in its own right.

(Similar notes apply to ebola in 2014, which was totally a big story with huge implications for public health in America. And to Clinton's emails, the coverage of which is responsible for the revolution in government IT security practices we've seen since her loss.)
