Shocker: Not a Single Network Newscast Mentions Resignation of Key IRSGate Figure Lois Lerner
They probably did a solid three minutes on "Is CrossFit murdering people?" though.
A new study from the Media Research Center found: “Not a single network bothered to report the stunning news [Monday night] or Tuesday morning.” The conservative media watchdog group called the lack of coverage about the scandal figure's resignation it “blatant censorship.”
MRC said it wasn’t surprised, noting that the networks have given up covering the ongoing scandal over the IRS’ targeting of Tea Party groups and delaying their bid for tax exempt status during President Obama’s reelection campaign.
According to the MRC’s analysis, it’s been 90 days since ABC last mentioned the story on either their morning or evening news programs, 89 days since NBC mentioned it, and 61 days at CBS.
ABC often gets a pass because NBC is so spectacularly biased (especially through their id, MSNBC), but in fact ABC might be the worst of the lot.
