If it were a Republican, the networks would be running with 24/7 coverage. There ARE no “Ethical Dilemas” if it’s a Republican, especially with the L.A. Times.
IF it were a republican, they would be running the COMPLETELY UNSUBSTANTIATED RUMORS as Page 1.
(Remember The Holy Memo?)
Timing is everything. If there is really a scandal, the MSM would hold it until they could use it to best advangage if it were a Rep. If it is a Dem, they will hold off using it to see if they could salvage someone's career by not disclosing it publicly, i.e., if that person does not get the nomination.
I think it is a Rep and it wouldn't surprise me if Carville, Mandy Grunwald, and Begala are behind this "rumor." The Dems and the MSM are really just two sides of the same coin. They work together to achieve their objectives.
