The well is filled with toxins that would make a chemist blush already.
Giving the tapes to Tucker ensures the widest audience, both normie Fox viewers, but also because Tucker is the only guy the OAN crowd and The_Donald commentators will watch on Fox (or from YouTube clips); and that's why I suppose that he was chosen as the outlet.
It doesn’t ensure the widest audience.
Releasing it to the public would have resulted in greater exposure because Tucker would still be free to run his segment.
He just wouldn’t be the only one.
They literally use Tucker to politically neutralize important stories.
The left can simply ignore this now.
Seems like a pretty wide audience to me, it's all over social media, the Dems are pissed as is McConnell (but I repeat myself). Tucker is the highest rated news show on TV. Can't get wider than that, mon ami.
It's video, it has to be a visual medium, so you can exclude the NYT as a viable option.
Likewise, no lefty outlet would run the story.
Besides, they will ignore it anyway, or complain, which they have done both of, and when on God's green earth do you think it would change anyone's mind on anything? Sorry, that's just silly to think so, or worse, use it as an argument for why releasing it to Tucker was some sort of bad decision.
So whatcha got left?

If the first sentence of your comment is "are you devoid of logic" then, mon ami, I'm going to stop taking you seriously. I dismantled your reasoning by pointing out Tucker is the highest rated news show on TV...and that's all ya got?
There's thousands of hours of videos, if it would be released to the public in a dump, all the juicy bits would be lost in an island of useless data. While I hope eventually it would all be released, you don't understand how propaganda works.
