A Democrat running for Congress was arrested on a stalking charge last week, but the media has refused to give the story any coverage.
David Alcon, who is running for an open congressional seat in New Mexico, was arrested this past Friday on a felony stalking charge after a woman accused him of sending her frightening and lewd text messages and showing up at her home. Alcon was previously convicted of stalking his ex-girlfriend in 2007 and was described as “infatuated” and “clearly obsessed” by the judge in the case.
The story has been met with silence from a number of media outlets despite their breathless coverage of the sexual assault scandal surrounding Alabama U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore.
According to a search of the television database TV Eyes, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, and NBC have given zero on-air coverage to Alcon’s arrest. The networks have also not published any stories about Alcon’s scandal on their websites in the past week.
Meanwhile, ABC, CBS, and NBC spent more than 79 minutes talking about Roy Moore between November 9 and November 13.
The accusations against Moore are serious and worth covering–but so are the allegations against Alcon.
The woman who reported Alcon to the police said he sent her messages telling her he loved her and wanted to have children with her and sent her photos of his genitals. She also said he showed up outside of her apartment after the messages were sent.
No surprise. The “me too” thing was hatched to trap Republicans, especially Moore. They will lie, cheat and steal to protect their fellow America-haters.
Should have cut the legs out from under all of them when trump came in yet we are a year in and the cancer is still present
Of course.
Time for Stalinist pundits to fall back on ‘everbody does this’ as they did with Clinton’s workplace affairs, harassment, abuse, assault, and perjury.
No surprise. The Liberal media is doing what it did all those years when the “sex” stuff about media, movie, political friends of theirs were widely known, but THEY did not report them then. The pattern merely continues and helps show they should not now and never should have been trusted.
Democrats running for office do not have brains located en skull.
