Mike Cernovich, a journalist who has promoted conspiracy theories and was deemed fake news by 60 Minutes, was the first to break the news that Obamas former national security advisor Susan Rice made requests to unmask the identities of Trump associates.
Cernovich said in his report Sunday that New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman knew about the Rice requests, and has chosen to sit on it in an effort to protect the reputation of former President Barack Obama. A New York Times spokeswoman told The Daily Caller, Cernovichs claim regarding Maggie Haberman is 100 percent false.
Bloombergs Eli Lake confirmed Cernovichs report Monday, but did not include any details about Haberman sitting on the story. Cernovich told TheDC in an interview that Lake also sat on the story over the weekend. Lake did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Bloomberg story didnt give Cernovich any credit for his scoop and he said he wasnt upset as he has more influence than Bloomberg.

Dear Scott Pelley,
We’re a republic, not a democracy. Everything you say after democracy has zero worth.
Beware of this Eli Lake, he is out there to make it look as though nobody violated the law.
Laura and Hannity are giving this turd too much time.
Problem is, gasbag, we’re not a democracy!
Thank you sir!
Pelly is a douche of epic size.
“The seriousness of the charge”
Is such a joke.
Our justice system does not work that way. Well it shouldn’t, but these days it does.
There is no longer “presumed innocent of all charges until proven guilty in a court of law.”
It’s “presumed guilty of all charges and acquire a conviction by any means necessary whether innocent or guilty.”
You can’t beat someone to the Scoop, if they are part of the Scoop.
