Most Libby Pardon Coverage Fails to Mention Original Plamegate Leaker

We Finally Arrived! Bernstein Declares 'Constitutional Crisis' Is Now
For many months, the liberal media had been warning us President Trump had the country on a crash course with a constitutional crisis because of his anger at the special counsel investigation.

NY Times Op-Ed: 'Chappaquiddick' Engages in 'Character Assassination'
In a Friday New York Times op-ed, Neal Gabler, merely described as "writing a biography of Edward Kennedy" to feign neutrality, expressed alarm that "the despicable Kennedy" seen in Chappaquiddick "will eradicate the honorable if flawed real one."

Boston Globe: Ted Kennedy 'Flawed,' But With 'Endless Accomplishments'
The Boston Globe's Ty Burr reviewed Chappaquiddick Tuesday, admonishing readers that the movie "might even be accurate."

I Wonder Why? First-Quarter Ratings Tank at CNN, ESPN
In early March, Tim Graham at NewsBusters noted that CNN's February audience fell by 19 percent from February 2017.
