The only thing more shocking than the allegation that a US president took a $10 million bribe from a foreign dictator is that said bribee held a TV news conference and not a single journalist asked about it

the worst part about this is that I had no expectations that any reporter attending that Mar-a-Lago gathering, whatever you'd call it, would ask that question and so wasn't even disappointed they didn't

Time and again Will Bunch has absolutely shown how it's done, and this piece from last August was spot on: "America is entering its most important, pivotal year since 1860, and the U.S. media is doing a terrible job explaining what is actually happening." Read it here: archive.ph/u6x1N

Journalism fails miserably at explaining what is really happening to America

Momentous week of GOP debate, Trump's arrest gets "horse race" coverage when the story's not about an election, but authoritarianism.
