Will there be a lot of unfortunate suicides going on in the next few days? Or is this a big pile of nothing?

A big nothing. No one would release anything substantially incriminating the Clintons while Hillary's heart is still beating.

Northern Europe is just weird, man.
I don't see anything weird here. In the US there are multiple different media groups with different political agendas, CNN, Fox News etc. and they challenge each other's views. In the Nordic countries, on the other hand, there's this strong left-wing hegemony controlling the press. About 90% of all publications in my country come from the four largest media groups here and they are all alike. Day after day, all of them promote and praise the superiority of socialism and crucify all who dare to express any sympathy for the free market or, heaven forbid, nationalism. Anyone who does not share this media consensus are labeled as these evil fascist-Hitler-Nazis who want to kill all the foreigners and leave the poor elderly on the streets to starve. In Sweden the situation is even worse, they have a long tradition of despising their only party with nationalist views and their supporters in all their press releases.

People are generally pretty fucking simple, if the press maintains a strong unified line on any issue, people generally tend to believe that this is the case and the press is right and thus reliable. I believe that in North Korea people also have strong confidence in the national press.
When passing through the Valley of Humiliation, slaves and dastards, exposing their sores, sob aloud for consolation and sympathy.

But a lot of other countries are exactly the same way and they don't seem to have the trust in the media that Finns do. Bong media for example is pretty much dominated by the BBC and their establishment media talking points. There isn't really any significant right wing media. Yet Bong trust in the media is pretty low.

Even in America, you mention Fox News as being in opposition to liberal media talking points. Well that's pretty much it, and they're controlled opposition too. Yet Americans don't have the trust in media that Finns do.

I'd say it's a sliding scale. If enough people see the light and notice that the entire media complex tells a different story, trust in media will probably drop because your own views appear to be deliberately omitted.

They have to. Having a different opinion and being vocal about it is not a smart move over there.
