In a major new development in the IRS scandal, House Republicans voted on Wednesday to send a criminal referral to the Department of Justice for former IRS chief Lois Lerner. FNC's Special Report with Bret Baier devoted a full story to the vote by the committee chaired by Congressman Dave Camp, but none of the three broadcast network evening newscasts covered the vote -- yet two found time to tout Hillary Clinton's presidential prospects.

Still the big question will be is America ready to elect a lesbian with a sordid past as the first woman President of the United States. Hopefully Hillary will be forced to come out.

I’m not sure why any person would waste even a single second of their lives watching evening newscasts, or any other news casts for that matter.

They won’t pay attention unless it backfires or if they think their involvement can help save 0bamugabi’s thin skin....

Because the media wants another America-hating marxist as president, and will do anything to protect the imposter who is in the oval office now.

I really wonder if they are that smart.

I occasionally watch the MSM news, both local and national, and the whole theme is “cool” and eye catching and 20 second sound bites. Emotions and shock value, too. Perfect for their mind numb viewers.

The IRS scandal, Benghazi, etc. are too complicated to explain and “boring.” And Obamacare’s failures are “too negative.”

So they drone on about inane stories that have little substance and are of little importance.

It’s not the News Reports, it’s who Reports the News.

My Lib B-I-L thinks the Mainstream Press doesn’t have a Liberal Bias. I told him he would probably think differently if 99% of the Journalists were Republicans instead of Democrats like they are today.

The Legacy Media: keeping the Obama electorate ignorant while licking the boots of Obama each time he steps in crap.
