Washington and the media. While a few people went from the media to the Bush Administration, it was never like it was with Obama.

 

Jay Carney went from Time to the White House press secretary's office. Shailagh Murray went from the Washington Post to the Veep's office while married to Neil King at the Wall Street Journal. Neil King has left the Wall Street Journal to work for Fusion GPS. Linda Douglass went from ABC News to the White House and then the Atlantic. Jill Zuckman went from the Chicago Tribune to the Obama Administration's Transportation Department. Douglas Frantz went from the Washington Post to the State Department and Stephen Barr went from the Post to the Labor Department.

Ruth Marcus, who heads the Washington Post Editorial Board, is married to the Obama Administration's former Federal Trade Commission Chairman. Jonathan Allen had been at the Politico before going to work for Debbie Wasserman Schultz, then back to Politico before going to the left leaning Vox. Now he is at NBC News. Andy Barr worked for the Politico before leaving for Democrat politics. Michael Scherer was at both Salon and Mother Jones before going to Time. Laura Rozen was at Mother Jones and the American Prospect before Foreign Policy magazine. Even Nate Silver had started out at Daily Kos. Then, of course, there is Matthew Dowd, who worked for scores of Democrats before working for George Bush. That, though he later washed his hands of Bush, bought him street credibility with ABC News to become its senior politically analyst alongside George Stephanopoulos, formerly of the Clinton Administration.

It goes on and on in a feedback loop of incestuous politics and worldview shaping. In the Obama Era, it was all about protecting their precious. Now it is about undermining the president. Many of the editorial level checks lean left and so do not run traps as effectively against bad stories. We are seeing a continued breakdown in reporting and a further erosion of public trust as a result. Something has to give. But I fear the media is inside a bubble of its own creation to do necessary due diligence.

Let's start with the fact that three of the four current Sunday shows are hosted by former-Democrat operatives.

 

CNN's Jake Tapper

Before hosting Sunday's "State of the Union" and "The Lead" on weekdays, Tapper worked as a Campaign Press Secretary for a Democrat congresswoman. He also worked for a gun control advocacy group.

Oh, and the Congresswoman Tapper worked for is no less than Chelsea Clinton's mother-in-law, which helps to explain a lot.

 

NBC's Chuck Todd

Before hosting Sunday's "Meet the Press" and "Meet the Press Daily" on weekdays, Todd worked for hard-left presidential candidate Tom Harkin.

Todd is also married to a Democrat party strategist.

 

ABC's George Stephanopoulos

Before hosting Sunday's "This Week" and "Good Morning America" on weekdays, Stephanopoulos was a high-level operative for President Bill Clinton.

 

CNN's Chief National Security Correspondent Jim Sciutto

Former Obama appointee in foreign affairs, Sciutto is a former colleague of Susan Rice's. Without knowing all of the facts and using sources identified as "people close to Rice," Sciutto has absolved her of all wrongdoing.

 

ABC News Correspondent Gloria Riviera

Married to former-Obama appointee Jim Sciutto.

 

Former-ABC News Executive Producer (2008-2011) Ian Cameron

Married Barry Obama's right-hand-woman and National Security Adviser Susan Rice in 1992.

 

CBS President David Rhodes

Brother of Obama Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes.

 

ABC News Reporter Claire Shipman

Wife of Obama's White House Press Secretary Jay Carney.

 

Former-ABC News and Univision Reporter Matthew Jaffe

Married to Obama's Deputy Press Secretary Katie Hogan.

 

ABC President Ben Sherwood

Brother of Obama Special Adviser Elizabeth Sherwood.

 

CNN Vice President and Washington Deputy Bureau Chief Virginia Moseley

Married to Hillary Clinton Deputy Secretary Tom Nides.

 

CNN Anchor Chris Cuomo

Brother of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.

 

NPR Reporter Ari Shapiro

Same-sex-married to Michael Gottlieb, who worked as a lawyer in the Obama White House.

 

Washington Post reporter Sari Horowitz

Married to William Schultz, general counsel for Obama's Department of Health and Human Services.

 

NBC News Senior Political Editor Mark Murray

Married to Sasha Johnson, Obama appointee at the FAA

 

PBS's Bill Moyers

Former White House Press Secretary for Lyndon Johnson.

 

Former-Politico/Bloomberg Reporter Jonathan Allen

Worked for Democrat Congresswoman and former-DNC head Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

 

In the most recent presidential election, 96% of media donations went to Hillary Clinton.

 

Just ask Eli Lake, the Bloomberg News reporter who broke open the Susan Rice spying scandal. Once a member-in-good-standing with the national media, his inconvenient reporting is currently either being ignored or outright smeared as "false" 24/7 by CNN.

 

Like an immune system would a virus, the mainstream media has set itself up as an organism designed to eliminate and expel right-of-center thought and ideas. You're either on the team, you either say the correct things, express the correct ideas and stay on the Narrative Plantation, or you will be slandered as a racist/liar/lunatic.
