41 rush into print
преждевременно выступить в печати, поторопиться передать материал для опубликованияWhat on earth the fellow, was about to rush into print and on such a subject he was at a loss to understand! (J. Galsworthy, ‘The Little Man and Other Satires’, ‘The Competitor’) — Он никак не мог понять, зачем этот человек так скоропалительно выступил в печати. Да еще по такому вопросу.
But the escape from Broadmoor of a homicidal maniac is something which is not to be rushed immediately into print. (J. Wallace, ‘Terror Keep’, ch. 7) — Но бегство из сумасшедшего дома маньяка-убийцы не из тех новостей, которые тотчас же передаются газетам для опубликования.
