This is certainly typical of the msm. From the Media Research Center On the heels of a Department of Justice (DOJ) lawyer admitting to Judicial Watch that Lois Lerners missing e-mails do exist comes another stunning revelation. On Monday evening the New York Observer reported the IRS destroyed Lerners Blackberry after it knew her computer had crashed and after a Congressional inquiry was well underway. Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) network coverage of this fishy behavior on the part of the IRS and Lerner? 0 seconds. There hasnt been a single story on the Blackberry destruction or the DOJ lawyers admission of the existence of Lerners e-mails on any of the Monday evening or Tuesday morning shows on ABC, CBS or NBC. All three morning shows on Tuesday did find time (5 minutes, 32 seconds) to cover the altercation on a plane caused by an unruly passenger upset about the "Knee Defender" product intruding on her personal space.
No surprise. But I will say this. It's not an improvement, mind you, but if true then it is a sign of things changing inside the Dem Party. The spin and cover done nowadays for the Left by the Bulk of the nation's Mainstream Media has probably begun shifting from protecting Barack Obama because he is their Political Messiah to protecting the Dem Party itself (from the top down) in order to keep a door marginally open for some Dem candidate to have a remote chance of winning the presidency in 2016. In other words, I get the sense that the MSM is -- generally speaking -- turning the page on Barack Obama even though for all practical purposes their spin and covering efforts remain fully engaged. Not much . . . but still interesting, if true.
