Networks Ignore DOJ Investigation of Corrupt NJ Senator Bob Menendez
NEWSBUSTERS ^ | 8/2/2023 | KEVIN TOBER

On Tuesday, The New York Times reported that the corrupt New Jersey Democrat Senator Bob Menendez is once again under investigation by the Department of Justice for violation of Congressional ethics rules. This is the second time in less than a decade that Menendez has been investigated for corruption and ethics violations. Despite this troubling pattern, the leftist networks seem uninterested in covering this latest report on Democrat political corruption. Honestly, it's even shocking The New York Times covered it. Perhaps because they're right across the river from Menendez they felt obligated.

Instead of reporting on the DOJ probe of Menendez, ABC's World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News decided they had more important things to cover like the recent Mega Millions lottery totals (ABC), local weather reports (CBS), and a segment blaming "climate change" for the Colorado River losing water (NBC).

Aside from The Times, Fox News Channel's Special Report had a news brief on the crooked New Jersey Senator. Anchor Bret Baier reported: "The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is under investigation by the Justice Department, that's according to The New York Times tonight."

"The second such probe concerning New Jersey Democratic Senator Bob Menendez in less than a decade. The current inquiry apparently concerns whether the Senator or his wife received undisclosed gifts in exchange for political favors," Baier noted.

Once again, Bret Baier proves he's one of the best journalists in the country. He doesn't get the credit he deserves for consistently doing his job. (ME -ymmv)

And yet their massed media ignores this story - successfully covering it up from the continuous reporting that would kill a campaign.
