A deafening media silence on the Obama-Hezbollah scandal

Politico published a jaw-dropping, meticulously sourced investigative piece this week detailing how the Obama administration had secretly undermined US law enforcement agency efforts to shut down an international drug-trafficking ring run by the terror group Hezbollah. The effort was part of a wider push by the administration to placate Iran and ensure the signing of the nuclear deal.
Now swap out “Trump” for “Obama” and “Russia” for “Iran” and imagine the eruption these revelations would generate. Because, by any conceivable journalistic standard, this scandal should’ve triggered widespread coverage and been plastered on front pages across the country. By any historic standard, the scandal should elicit outrage regarding the corrosion of governing norms from pundits and editorial boards.
Yet, as it turns out, there’s an exceptionally good chance most of your neighbors and colleagues haven’t heard anything about it.
Days after the news broke, in fact, neither NBC News, ABC News nor CBS News — whose shows can boast a collective 20 million viewers — had been able to find the time to relay the story to its sizeable audiences. Other than Fox News, cable news largely ignored the revelations as well.

If you think about it, that could be an asset. DOJ won't have to answer to the sniveling media with their stupid questions and innuendos of "whatever" they come up with. Kinda like saying of the DOJ - walk softly while swinging a big stick.

We can only hope.
Time to invest in Jack Daniels, "I take the fifth" could become the four most spoken words in Washington.

Propaganda works for the MSM because the majority of the news that’s heard and repeated comes from them.
Until something happens to change that, it’s almost not worth complaining about because, again, the medium that should carry that message is dedicated to the propaganda that opposes it.
People at big news networks will have to go to jail, and that requires proving a crime.

The recipe for a "scandal-free" 8 years. The media just gave zero fricks about any accountability for their golden boy.

All because the color of his skin. MLK would be so disappointed

I saw a member of the fair and impartial MSM claiming the article wasn't getting any traction because it was "thinly sourced" yet there are names and titles attached to every quote. A far cry from the anonymous sources the MSM has used to keep this false russian narrative alive for over a year.
The treatment Obama received/receives from the MSM is a bigger black eye on their profession than what they've done to Trump IMO

What was there to investigate? It's not like he ever had two scoops of ice cream while everyone else had one. THAT would be a scandal.

Yep, we all know Obama shared his ice cream with Lois Lerner. What a prince. Even instructed Lois not to say a word about it.

Does not support DNC/MSM POLITICAL COMPLEX.
Fake News doesn’t just include what they cover, but also what they must keep their minions from knowing.
But the libtarded biased SOBs cannot stop further investigation of DNC wrong doing and potential prosecutions.
MAGA

It’s draining baws! It’s draining!

I guess criminals don't like it when their crimes are brought to light.

They funded isis and gave them weapons via Libya (Benghazi). To cover the trail, they then had Hezbollah fight isis to kill anyone who had knowledge of what happened in libya. Get a 2nd hitman to kill your first hitman.

Surprisingly I heard a story about it on NPR...

Nothing that detracts from the liberal progressive agenda will be publicized by the liberal progressive media.

The Obama administration was complete scum
