As LawNewz.com reported earlier on Tuesday, CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, the Washington Post, the Tribune Company, and The New York Times recently filed a joint Motion to Intervene in the Trump University lawsuit (and apparently snubbed Fox News in making their request). Essentially, the “Media Intervenors” are asking a judge to release portions of the videotaped “Trump Depositions” that are not already public. Major media outlets going after everything Donald Trump should not come as a surprise to anyone who has been watching this election cycle. However, Trump is not the only presidential candidate currently at the center of a major civil lawsuit. In addition to her potential criminal troubles, Hillary Clinton and her closest aides find themselves at the center of a civil lawsuit that is far more important and telling about the candidate’s character than anything related to Trump University.
Yet, no major media outlets are joining together and beating down the courthouse door to unseal records related to the Clinton civil lawsuits. Some will say this screams double standard — in fact, many of our commenters have done just that — and this time, they could not be more right.

What interest could those media organizations possibly have in a private lawsuit that involves neither them, any governmental organization or any other public interest ? At least Trump can afford all the interlocutory appeals necessary should Curiel decide to croak Trump with this.
Clearly Trump is fighting against everyone but the people in this cycle, even the GOP so-called ‘leadership’. For the good of all, pray he prevails. If he fails, we’re all doomed to a future Venezuela.
We live in despicably corrupt times. I really see no redemption coming forth anytime soon.
The media’s full time job is destroying Republicans and normal people, and supporting democrats.
As Shakespeare said, the failure is in ourselves not in the stars. We have tolerated a list of abuses for too long. A fellow from this area years ago said, “if this be treason make the most of it.”. We may be just about done with putting up with the slander, deceit, and corruption our own gummint has become. Maybe G B Shaw was right, if one can not on an annual basis make a solid case for continued survival maybe that should not be an option. We’re I on a such a jury such as these would be gone from our society in weeks. Not out of hate but out of compassion for the millions of us who have suffered too long under this fiction.
Given the nature of the government itself being in opposition to Trump along with their laphound media, I’m convinced that it is MORAL for hackers to bypass courts in the search for Clinton information.
Unilateral disarmament is immoral.
As Lincoln said, a house divided... Our politics have become so toxic we probably have only one logical conclusion. The libtards go or we go. Our reality is not compatible with theirs. Either we are the nation and culture of America or we are not. If they win they can gloat and dance on our bodies all they want and they can finally quit pretending they had anything in common with us. If we win I would sadly attend a Memorial for them wishing there had been another way but glad this sad chapter had finally come to an end.
One way or the other. Stalemate does not and cannot last or continue. I do believe that libtards will discover, to their dismay, as have others, that while Americans are slow to wrath we are something the world can not resist once we have become angry.
In contrast, information about the testimony of her subordinates regarding Sec. Clinton's handling of sensitive government documents is clearly in the public interest.
