Conservatives claim media, Dems ignoring allegations against Ellison (BRAKING NEWS?)
Politico ^ | 9/21/18 | JASON SCHWARTZ

**SNIP**

Led by opinion hosts on Fox News, conservative figures looking to call out liberal hypocrisy have seized on accusations by Ellison’s former girlfriend Karen Monahan that he emotionally abused her and, during a 2016 argument, yelled profanities at her and dragged her off a bed.

They claim that the national press, while giving ‘round the clock coverage to an allegation that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted a woman when they were both in high school, has ignored Monahan’s more recent claims about Ellison — and so, they argue, has the Democratic Party.

“Guess what? Prominent Democrats line up in support, believe Kavanaugh's accuser,” Fox News’ Sean Hannity said on his show Thursday night. “You’re hard-pressed to find any Democrats standing behind Ellison’s ex-girlfriend. That proves it’s politics.”

“It does deserve some coverage. How much is a judgment call,” said David Schultz, a political science professor at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota. “The fact that he is second in command at DNC, that warrants some coverage,” he said, though he pointed out that Kavanaugh is a more high-stakes national figure than Ellison.

May we toss in Hillary's crimes while we're at it?

It’s only braking news if it’s in the Car and Driver thread.

Politico is an arm of the Democrat Party. It knows the rules: scandals should only affect Republicans.

There’s also Ohio senator Sherrod Brown. He beat up his first wife and the paperwork exists to prove it. #Hetoo

Demonic-Rats decide and determine precisely “what” constitutes a crime!

Laura has been all over this story and I sure wish someone like Hannity would recognize her efforts. He blathered about it for 5 minutes last night and you can’t tell me he hasn’t watched her video ambush.

If anyone actually pays money to Hannity, please call this to his attention. The only way we’re going to get fair and unbiased reporting is to recognize and support the independent journalists who are actually out there doing it.

Did anyone need any proof that it's politics? It's always politics with democrats. They can't even hold a damn funeral without it becoming a democrat pep rally.

Yep. She's doing great work! I suspect her days on social media are numbered.

The Ellison supporters say the picture is not factual and the accusations in the meme are false. What say you?

Looks fake to me but there is enough real evidence without it.
