Sometimes it’s not so much how biased the media reports the news.
Often, it’s what the corporate-controlled media decides not to report that’s the problem.
And the Fake News Media completely ignored this major trial, until the verdict went their way that is.
We now know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the entire Donald Trump/Russian collusion hoax was bought and paid for by Hillary Clinton and the Democrats.
And we know that the media covered it up.
So of course, when the first of Hillary’s campaign lawyers went on trial for the crime, we weren’t expecting much coverage from the liberal media.
But we didn’t expect a total media blackout.
Yet in one of the most maddening examples of leftist media bias to date, both ABC’s World News Tonight and CBS Evening News, after completely ignoring the Michael Sussmann Russia hoax trial decided to finally report on it.
But only after Michael Sussmann was shockingly acquitted of lying to the FBI by a jury who clearly didn’t understand the case or had been watching too much mainstream liberal news over the past couple of years.
Both networks, like their comrades at CNN, MSNBC and the other major liberal outlets, had no interest in covering the trial while it was going on.
It was only after the jury made its shocking announcement that they had found the Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer not guilty that the democrat P.R. firms at ABC and CBS decided to take a victory lap.
On ABC World News Tonight, anchor David Muir actually gloated about the “major defeat” for special counsel John Durham before turning it over to the network’s “chief justice correspondent” Pierre Thomas.
Thomas could barely hide his glee as he joyfully reported the “Washington jury handing special counsel John Durham a stinging defeat, acquitting a lawyer with ties to Hillary Clinton’s campaign of charging that he lied to the FBI.”
Fair and balanced, unbiased, reporting this was not.
Thomas then provided some background information on the case seeing that up to that point ABC had kept their viewers in the dark about it.
The “expert” correspondent reported how “federal prosecutors had claimed that just before the 2016 election, the lawyer, Michael Sussmann, misled the FBI when he passed along a tip that computers in Trump Tower were communicating with a Russian bank.” But Thomas then added, “Durham’s team insisted Sussmann was secretly acting as an operative of the Clinton campaign.”
At the end of his so-called “report,” Thomas sarcastically said Trump supporters had hoped that “Durham would uncover some explosive revelations to back that up. Three years later that still has not happened.”
CBS was no better. Anchor Norah O’Donnell briefly mentioned the jury’s verdict to her viewers who were likely confused since CBS had never once mentioned the case prior to the verdict.
O’Donnell couldn’t hide her joy as she said, “Special counsel John Durham’s investigation into the origins of the FBI’s Trump Russia investigation suffered a major blow today. A federal jury found Michael Sussmann, a lawyer with ties to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign not guilty of lying to the FBI.”
Of course, what all these “news” outlets are ignoring is the fact that Donald Trump was impeached based solely on the Russia collusion issue which we now know was a complete hoax.
Whether anyone is ever prosecuted for it doesn’t matter.
But of course, to the liberal corporate media, truth doesn’t really matter.
