Basically he's now effectively ambushed the ambusher. If he would have stuck around and fought it live and in real time, CTV probably would have buried him, bought up more statements from the sources of the story. Repeated it on the top of every hour.
Instead he basically waited until he had everything and he's shot CTV and the accusers with both barrel's.
As soon as the accusations came out, there was no hanging on, the party had to get rid of him in a hurry so they could put the accusations behind them, look like they were doing the right thing and get the new leaders into the spotlight and Brown out of the Spotlight.
This isn't Hollywood where you hang on and can hide or spin things. Politics is an entirely different game.
