She's trying to stay in the news because it's good for her pocketbook and keeps her in the public conscious if she ever decides to run for office again. The media is all-too-happy to oblige her because it's good for their ratings.

Everybody is "trying to stay in the news" so she's pretty garden-variety that way.
She manages to be successful at it because the general public demands that their news sources feed her to them.
Why?
Good question I suppose the answer is actually very simple and time-tested - we all love puppy dogs, babies and train wrecks . . . . . and every editor knew that in the 1920's, just as they know that today.
Some things never change.
