The American mainstream media has expended great effort in the past two weeks to convince people that the scandal now known as Obamagate is either a diversion or a conspiracy theory, neither of which is true.
Most of the coverage has taken the form of a tantrum, like the one exhibited by CNN’s Brian “Poppin’ Fresh” Stelter last week:
CNN’s “Reliable Sources” anchor Brian Stelter criticized conservative news outlets for their “obsession” over the new revelations regarding the Russia election interference investigations and the Department of Justice dropping its case against retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn. Stelter said the outlets should be more focused on the death toll from the ongoing Wuhan coronavirus pandemic.
For the most part, the MSM has’t been doing any deep dives into the recent revelations that led to the coining of the term “Obamagate” in the first place. There have been a lot of op-ed pieces dismissing it, but not any real examination of just what President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden may have had to do with it. On Friday, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany chided the White House press pool for a lack of “journalistic curiosity” regarding the issue.
There are a few reasons that the press is so gun-shy about having any journalistic curiosity, a couple of them very obvious.
We’ve been told ad nauseam by Obama partisans that The Lightbringer’s administration was scandal-free. Sure, try selling that line to the Mexican government right now.
The reason that the scandal has come to be known as Obamagate is because if the allegations are true the stink is all over Obama himself.

IF a tree falls in a forest....
This is the power of the media. Not what they cover, but what they ignore.
Fantastic headline!
too bad only half the country will notice...the other half will want to impeach Trump for trying to obstruct these “investigations”
Love the Seinfeld reference.
I liked the DNC and their “flying monkeys” in the media.
You have to give some points for that one....
Obama is a Boob.
Good luck tearing him away from this one.
"Lock her up" and "Drain the swamp" have ben building for 4 years now. The pace has been frustrating, but everyone is eager for this. IMO, this is Trump's entire re-election strategy. Nothing is going to stop this.
Seinfeld!
“IF a tree falls in a forest....

Exactly.
Censorship By Omission.
.
I don’t think anything will happen to any of them…..maybe a couple low level scumbags that we never heard of will get indicted, but nothing will happen to the big-wigs.
Wait until Trumps OUTDOOR Rallies using outdoor concert sites where 50,000 people can attend in UV light and social distance.
You would think the Presstitutes would be all over this New Hard Evidence of Russian Collusion and Election Interference, Maybe if they weren’t Co-Conspirators in this Seditious Conspiracy To Overthrow The United States Presidency, they would be.
It may be real.
It may be spectacular.
But until major players are frog-marched on camera, it don’t mean a damned thing. JUSTICE needs to be done.
If you consider that the list revealed last week by Grenell was extremely limited in scope (just Flynn was named, just unmasking requests, and just for the transition period) yet revealed almost 40 different names, you can be sure that a full investigation of the breadth of spying on American citizens was vast. This really is the tip of the iceberg. And the Democrat response that this was routine is even more offensive. Spying on Americans is routine?
“Real and Spectacular!”
