    ...shouldn’t this report have gotten more play? Why isn’t this a huge scandal?? Why didn’t it dominate cable news??? https://twitter.com/lachlan/status/1004336650598666242 …

        There’s no doubt Trump sucks up oxygen and steps on other narratives, but I think there’s more to this than that.

        I agree. The media is all too happy to let him suck up the oxygen (have been complicit with him all along). Focus is 99.9% on him at the detriment of other news. It must be easier to follow a twitter feed and WH gossip than to do real journalism.

        Because ANY news that makes Obama look bad is ignored or actively suppressed. That's why he runs around claiming his admin was "scandal free" and none of you "journalists" ever challenge it. But sure, call it right wing paranoia, @silverbulletLLC that'll make it better.

        Or maybe it's fatigue from propoganda outlets like Fox claiming every little thing in the Obama admin was a major scandal to the point of ad naseum, so when actual issues come up no one cares to talk about it.

        Right. Selling guns to Mexican gangs, weaponizing the IRS, only AG ever held in contempt by Congress (and what for?), spying on journalists... This is just a brief recall, but these are things one would normally call a scandal that just did not get explored by MSM. Wonder why.

        Cuz it's a minor technicality that's *part an overall deal* from a *past* administration that has already been *talked to death*? Maybe that? Like, I get the GOP loves to make this sorta thing sound nefarious to their rabid base, but that doesn't actually make it big news.

        Sadly the #MSM ignoring this feeds every bad and crazy theory on the conservative aside about the media. Really disappointing. Could you imagine if this had happened w/ Trump or Bush?

        Maybe it’s because every single day the Trump administration does something worse?

        Because it's not a scandal. You guys burned through any chance of being taken seriously after YEARS of Benghazi drama.

        Did you actually read the article or just the headline because once you read the article you realize it’s not nearly as nefarious as the headline or what Repubs want us to believe.

        It's not. Especially in today's environment of many a "huge scandal". Stop searching for that which would deflect from the outrageousness of the current resident of our WH.
