Stir vitriol? Sure. But affect credibility? Only for the intellectually dishonest.
They give critics of the investigation an excuse to dismiss it as fundamentally partisan. For political purposes, it doesn't matter whether that is true.

This is only true if the media reports this without context. What effect did this text, this opinion, have on the course of the overall investigation?

"What is true or not is not my concern." Thank you for finally being honest. The media has a role in determining what the political reception is, and by god you're doing your job to mold it the "right" way.

One thing America definitely doesn't need is reporters trying to report on their own self-manufactured narrative. Is the investigation compromised or isn't it? If you won't write about that question then get a new job, one that doesnt allow you to cheerlead obstruction.

Of course—but it should matter. They couldn't substantively stand on their own without fundamentally partisan pundits disingenously fanning the spark. Intellectually dishonest.
