This line of attack may resonate with voters.  Is it believable?

CRUZ: I can't tell you how many media outlets I hear, you know, have this great exposé on Donald, on different aspects of his business dealings or his past, but they said, "You know what? We're going to hold it to June or July."  We're not going to run it now.

JOHN DICKERSON: You're saying reporters have — told you that? They've told ...

TED CRUZ: Absolutely. We've got multiple ...

JOHN DICKERSON: And from which organizations have they told you?

TED CRUZ: You know, look, I'm not going to out media outlets. But I can tell you there is so much there.

It might resonate on the trail but I don't know how well saying this would go in a debate. Might be a second "New York values" type of moment.

If any media outlet had something they would use it now for fear that someone else would get the exclusive, unless Cruz is implying that they are caluding in some kind of cabal and divying up the bombshells between NYT, WaPo, NBC, CNN, etc

It kind of just sounds like McCarthy tactics.
