No offense to you. I mean in general the news media should treat the scandal like their precious destruction of Nixon.

I grew up with Watergate but I also read my local newspaper eight columns smaller print (”The York Dispatch”) and it took AP and UPI copy and found room for 25 or more stories on its front page not just the Watergate drama the network TV news did back then.

It was good reading kept my mind from being brainwashed by the single story obsession that would drop in on us with cable news in more recent times.

I also did shortwave radio back then I would hear local news on local stations not to mention stuff like the BBC World Service.

I had news from everywhere coming in with the old media technology.
