In a shock to no one, the liberal networks funded by taxpayers -- PBS and NPR -- have so far ignored the emerging new stories on the emerging new investigative stories on Russian involvement with the Clintons and the Obama administration. A Nexis search finds nothing there. PBS and NPR have hammered on Russia over the last two days, but only as it deals with the Trump angle.

On Tuesday night's All Things Considered, NPR aired a four-minute interview with Yahoo reporter Michael Isikoff highlighting his finding that Russian social-media trolls were instructed to watch the overwrought TV series House of Cards to familiarize themselves somehow with American politics. He focused on a troll shop in St. Petersburg, and the focus is all on foiling the Clintons, not enabling them:

I didn’t click because I’m not surprised. I wish more of the story had been in the blurb.

“It just doesn’t seem right.”

That’s because it ISN’T RIGHT and would be a prime candidate for Trump to pick off! There needs to be an example made . . .

Soros PAYS them not to report.
It is the way of the Zonder-Nazi and their
worthless faux news agenda.

Our GOP Congress and President ought to make taxpayer funded NPR and PBS walk the proverbial plank. They should sink or swim on their own. Maybe they could do their pledge drive begging every other week.

Then when they do their liberal/radical drive-by’s, they’ll at least be doing it on their own liberal/radical dime.

If they can ignore the Uranium-gate story long enough, they can then dismiss it as “old news”. I’ve seen them use that tactic before.
