"Sanewashing" What is it? Who gets it? Where's the need?

Nobody is saying the media "sanewashes" Harris. It does not fit.

Trump - https://www.cjr.org/the_media_today/trump_incoherent_media_sanewashing.php

And you can go from there. Actually, I tried a quite simple experiment:

search = Trump sanewashing

search = Harris sanewashing  

There is a message in items returned. Yes, it may be me profiled one way, or the search engine being biased. But, come on -

Try it yourself, use any browser your want, any search engine you want. My bet is your results do not differ from mine. And think for a moment - what is sanewashing, who is doing it, and what if anything may be in it for them.

Keeping a contest front burner "interesting" among casual consumers, what does it mean for placing advertising? For continued reading?

A horse race over in the back stretch is no fun, is it?

The bottom line is nobody doubts Harris' sanity. Trump, different matter.

Here is another one: This item, does it surprise you? 

There is a story beyond mere chance. Think very seriously about it.

These are not interchangeable human beings. One has a different web presence than the other. Either the whole web is biased, the search engines wrong, or the search engines correct and the phenomenon is as real as night following day.

For a reason.
