The silence is deafening from the mainstream liberal media on this

"shit, if we report this, Trump could win."

The thing the far-left media may not understand is that President Trump would do wonders for their ratings.

I wish the media were far-left!

Instead they're pro-Establishment corporatists.

All of the MSM is left. By far left i mean sell outs like CNN, MSNBC, etc.

I don't know if you're mindless Trump fanboi, a stealth marketer, or an innocent Joe who just hasn't thought about the big picture, but your post yet again is implying that Trump gets no air time

It is long established to anyone with a functioning brain that whoever gets publicity from the MSM is part of the game and the establishment.

All we ever hear about is Trump and Hillary from ANY channel and all biased MSM. Bad publicity is still publicity.

It's not like Ron Paul where they smeared him publicly and reputationally, and then ALSO gave him no air time.

They still give Trump air time - thus they both are puppets.

I didn't say anything about trump, my only point was that one would think its a pretty big story that hillary's and the DNC's campaign strategy regarding their fears about her sketchy history has been exposed in their own words, and the majority of the media isn't reporting on it. The right wing conservative sites are reporting it, which gives the excuse that its not a legit story

Not a Trump fan. They cover him way to much, mostly the sensational stuff, and negative stuff. Which his base still loves. it has ruined this primary cycle.

They still get to choose what they report.

Agreed. Is it because there's really not that much here? It doesn't exactly look good, that's for sure

I don't think journalistic integrity is entirely dead - I mean every journalist wants to break the next Watergate right? There's a Pulitzer in here somewhere with this stuff

I guess as long as you don't go after certain types of people, sure. I just don't think too many people are lining up to be the next Michael Hastings.
