Media Running Around Giving Itself Participation Trophies, For Some Reason

BTW, Bret Baier is actually going to permit Mollie Hemingway on the panel tonight. I imagine that's because he's brought in two other guests to argue that No Seriously There Was Obstruction and Stuff, even though a prosecutor with unlimited resources couldn't establish evidence of it, and even though members on his own team could not agree that there was obstruction.

Remember the names of the people and media outlets who willfully perpetrated the Russia hoax. This is deeply sad to watch. But they don't have it in themselves to admit their massive failings. https://t.co/0guw3wG3ra

This is delusional and sick and sad, obviously, but I retweet so that you will REMEMBER THE NAMES OF THE PEOPLE who fed you the fake Russia hoax. Remember them. https://t.co/RUBszCldw4

The replies to this are quite instructive about the extent to which there are diverging universes in which people live.

This is very sad. I know that they can't continue to live with themselves and acknowledge that they perpetrated a hoax and harmed a country. But this is sad. Remember their names. https://t.co/cTmikI1Bmn

Mary Katherine Ham hits a PR of GAINZZZ snark on CNN -- and followed that with a biting statement that the media's newfound claims that "collusion means nothing, we never talked about collusion" are "gaslighting" -- lies, in other words.

And when the media wasn't ejaculating ribbons and medals on to each others' backs, they were spazzing out in anger.
