Does the media spend too much time on the "Russia story"?

[kentuck]

That was the argument of Rick Santorum tonight on CNN. They were spending way too much time on the Russia story, he said. And, instead of talking about Russian meddling, they talked mostly about Donald Trump's possible involvement and collusion.

It seems to me that maybe they don't spend enough time on the "Russia story"? If it is true that Russia meddled in our elections and Donald Trump and his gang assisted them in their efforts, there is no more important story to report.

They should not spend more time reporting on Vladimir Putin than they spend reporting on Donald Trump because Donald Trump is the elected leader of this country. He has walked into our house with a stick of dynamite taped to his chest. We must pay more attention to him than Putin.

Any part of the media that ignores this story is betraying the interests of our nation. Whether intentional or out of ignorance, they should not be in the news business. This is no time for reporters and news people to have their heads in the sand.

1. If Rick Santorum says it, it's wrong.

Wrong as man on dog.

2. Compared to what?

All the major legislation passed by the Republican controlled House and Senate?
The sweeping and complex policy changes Trump has presented?

I'll leave it to the rightwing propaganda outlets to do the pep rallies and the cheerleading for the deadend dolts who live in an Alt Reality where coal is king, Stepford wives cooked a 5 course meal while giving a BJ and dusting, and real man was a Hollywood movie icon.

3. It needs more attention. Much more

Put a bright light on the Trumps with your very best investigators and analysts digging deep. This is a calling for authentic journalists.

4. No, not even close. It IS their job to inform citizens of this country about what is going on.

Russia ripped off the election and it seems to me not nearly enough is being done and almost no one in congress is as alarmed about it as they should be.

5. It seems like a lot now but the situation calls for it.

So much happens so fast with this fake prez sometimes they can't fit it all in in just one a hour time slot.

Fux Ruse (from what I hear) hardly spends any time on it.

6. Cuomo let KAC drone on insultingly for most of

the half hour she wasted

That was her assignment as well

Did you see that? She was in right before Mr Froth

He was very risible

Much more agitated than I've ever seen him. So obviously full of. .......Santorum
