On Monday, only CBS This Morning reported Friday's stunning revelation that the IRS somehow lost two years worth of emails from Lois Lerner, the official at the center of the agency scandal in which conservative groups were unfairly targeted.

Neither NBC's Today nor ABC's Good Morning America bothered to cover the shocking development. However, both broadcasts did manage to find time for full reports on Britain's baby Prince George learning to walk.

Cordes then concluded her report with more IRS spin suggesting the congressional investigation of the scandal was just a waste of time and money:

Agreed. CBS is still smarting from Sharyll Atkinson’s departure.

The person who orchestrated this ought to be charged with obstruction of Congress.

How would the feds act if someone they were after said they lost 2 years of emails?

They would find them.

“Neither NBC’s Today nor ABC’s Good Morning America bothered to cover ...” as they are not journalistic or news media. They are PROPAGANDA tools only.

That is just unreal

Seriously. It’s time to not just turn them off (if one hasnt done so already) And contact the sponsors

No free society can sustain itself with a corrupt political system and a complaint lapdog media

If this claim had been made by a Republican administration it would be front page, above the fold, news in the NYT every day for at least a month.

When you ponder how corrupt this adminstration has become ... you can only compare it to the most corrupt administration that this country has ever had.

... the next one.
