Original Note:
The interview aired Monday. Headlines by many media outlets began covering the story the following Friday (today as of this writing). Fridays are commonly understood to be used for “dumping” stories—taking advantage of the slower news cycle and diminished public attention. https://politicaldictionary.com/words/friday-news-dump/#:~:text=The%20concept%20of%20the%20Friday,outlets%20actively%20covering%20breaking%20stories.
