All of these are covering the Susan Rice story. I looked on CNN and couldn't find anything. ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR, MSNBC, WaPo, NYT, not seeing it. Am I missing something?

The MSM is absolutely corrupt as I have said many times. This is not bias. They are ignoring this story because it hurts the Dems and helps Trump. It may not have been "wire tapping" but surveillance was surely going on and names were exposed and then leaked.

Corruption is not just about the slanting of a story for the media's political goals it is also about what stories to actually cover.

Maybe the unnamed sources didn't share with those news outlets. Are they supposed to report on somebody else's unnamed sources?

Offer proof of collusion? Just because u think so doesn't mean it happened. Especially since no body on here knows a damn.

Bloomberg's column is an op-ed.

Boy, you nuts have a hard time telling the difference between a news story and an op-ed. That may be the issue. I didn't check the other sites you listed but I'm guessing it is the same thing

Come on. We have zero proof of any Trump team collusion. We have direct proof that Flynn's name was unmasked and leaked.

You might have killed someone last night, too.

I have absolutely no evidence, and odds are you were home sleeping in bed, but I'm going to run with it.

I don't think libs understand how serious unmasking of names is if done for political purposes. It undermines the FISA law. It undermines good intelligence. It may mean this law is not re-upped which may cost American lives. I think the FBI has thwarted many attacks using these methods. If these methods blow up because of Americans concerns that they too could be named when they are perfectly innocent, they will lose faith and the law may be trashed. Not good for the country, imo.

No!!!!!!

Just the other day we were having a scrum on here on how biased the media is (that immigration arrest story) and so many on the Left were waving their arms saying us on the Right were whining and complaning about nothing because they claimed that story was all over the place.

So where are those same folks now about this? I heard this story first reported on Hugh Hewitt's radio show this morning around 8:00am when I got to work. I'm home now @ 6pm and heard it only once on the hourly news on Fox radio. I've Heard it no where else. I read about it on Bloomberg and Drudge, and links on this sight, but the major news outlets you mentioned are virtually ignoring it.

Do those on the Left need any more proof that the main news media is biased and corrupt? This is a major development in this story, and you'd never know it listneing to them.

Yes, this is true and just another example in my opinion of their rank incompetence to not even recognize the damage this activity has done to our national security and our ability to fight terrorism. As you have said Pax, this could mean lives will be lost if we lose this tool (FISA) because of abuse. All Americans' privacy is at risk if no one is held to account in this illegal use of our domestic surveillance apparatus.

Be biased, but how do you take sides when American lives are at stake? Do they not even realize how serious this is? Are they so blinded by their ideology that they can't at least report on the illegal aspects of this Law and its abuse, no matter who's doing it?

I know they are biased, but they are also woefully incompetent and quite frankly too stupid to even realize how serious this issue is to our national security.

I can't stand them.

Why can't we do both? One has been proven...the other has not (yet - maybe never).

Thus far, zero evidence of any collusion. ZERO, as you point out. What we do have evidence of is the unmasking, dissemination and leaking of names to the media. Further, Rice unmasked those names and Nunes said that activity had nothing to do with Russia. What was her national security reason to unmask those Americans if Russia wasn't involved?

On one hand we have speculation but no evidence. On the other hand, we have felonies. We can certainly investigate both and I hope Sessions has already convened a Grand Jury.

That's good Bru, make the assumption that I read every story and then take a opposition opinion on incorrect assumptions. You are a cantankerous old fart.

One sad episode. Richard Armitage di it, not scooter Libby. Bush should have pardoned Scooter, he didn't do it and everybody that has a little bit of knowledge knows this.
