I don't get why this is "news".

Like, the media decided not to release any of the info.

But then why brag about not releasing the info?

"Hey, we are an unbiased source of truth, trust us.

Oh by the way, we decided not to let you know what information we were given. We just want you to know that we were given information.... but no you can't have it.

Of course we're unbiased, we wouldn't release leaked info from democrats either....... Oh wait"

I'd rather them not, they lose anyway, and they can't play the victim like they always do.

Better if they just didn't say anything. Why pull the edge of the cover up, proving you're not actually unbiased.
