Networks Yawn as DNC Lurches Further Left
While the media do everything but spontaneously combust at the sight of President Trump, they ignore the other party in turmoil. Over the course of eight years, President Obama plunged the Democrats deep into a crater. But his media buddies paid no attention because nothing Democrats do or don't do bothers them.
For weeks now, former Labor Secretary Tom Perez and Rep. Keith Ellison have been campaigning to lead the Democratic National Committee. And for weeks, the networks have ignored it. They would rather spend hours analyzing whether Trump is going to keep disrespecting them. (News flash: He will.)
The actual event, the narrow election of Perez, who then created for Ellison a deputy chairman position, drew a minute or two of attention on the newscasts. Compared with the hostile ardor of their Trump coverage, it was sterile and (intentionally?) boring.
