Reuters broke a story that this Russian spy met with 2 high obama officials in 2015...

Can someone tell me why the NYT, Washington post, la times, nbc news who have run multiple stories attempting to connect her to trump...somehow overlooked the this timeline and this major story?

This is why they are fake news...because whose to say they knew and never reported this? If these are the supposed top news journalists in the world...we would expect Reuters to report this over the others?

And now they are not mentioning this story? Doesn’t it seem strange? They cherry pick the facts to make up the narrative they want folks.

Well let's see. The Reuters article was posted yesterday.

A quick Google search brings up:

Wall St. Journal has picked it up

CNN has picked it up

CBS News has picked it up

New York Times ran it as an exclusive two days ago

CNBC ran it yesterday

And MSN (my main source) seems to be broken right now so I'll give them a pass, but I expect to see something on there about it when it comes back up.

don't use a google search, go to each site's main page, then navigate to that story. Tell me how easy it is to find WITHOUT the search, in other words what the normal site goer might see.

CNN had it on their main page
WSJ had it on their politics page
msnbc didn't have it in their scroll of headlines
CBS was scrolling through the politics page

The NYT which ran it as an exclusive did it on it's Europe page

EUROPE

Exclusive: Alleged Russian Agent Butina Met With U.S. Treasury, Fed Officials

Look at the headline, and tell me if you realize that is meetings with Obama administration officials?

Media bias is in how stories are presented, and the weight they are given. Clearly every ap/reuters stories gets loaded into every news site's listings, but how/where it is run and how much screen time it gets plays a huge part in what I would describe as media bias.

LOL, so use the internet but only the way I tell you to use it. Don't look now but guess who is trying to control the narrative.

When I searched her name and news...cbs showed it. Cnn had it on there politics side (somehow not a front page story). NYT, didn’t pull the article when I searched.

But, still...weird rueters finds the story and none until they did.

Hey mooby, any guess why CNN not running the shooters name from Toronto on the front page? I see they updated their story at 6 pm and promptly removed (buried it) in their world page. Not a peep of the most circulating story from the last 24 hours.

Muslim I guess? Doesn’t fit the narrative they wanted of crazy white guy mass shooter? Possible terrorist just shouldn’t be news...

Yet , you don't know so your "assumption" is to fit your narrative.

Not an assumption if NYT, Wa post, nbc news, etc chose not to run a story.

What’s the bigger story, a Russian spy at the national prayer breakfast or meeting with top obama adminstration officials?

Clearly biased and news sources which cannot be trusted to tell the American public the entire story.

G1, what Im able to do is provide clear examples of bias media. This is a perfect example of where major news sources get it wrong. Not only are major news source simply ignoring this story, others report in a manor not consistent with other coverage of the subject i.e. putting it on the backpages, putting it in hard to find spaces like world politics or the European section of the site. Others chose to place unassuming headlines "Russian met with top officials" or write basic, small articles with no analysis or pivotal details.

Like I said, whats the bigger story, Russian Spy meets with Prayer breakfast or Russian Spy meets with top Obama administration officials?

This is a great example

Chico , no you don't you spin your outlook on the subject as fact and at the end of the day it's as phony as the outrage of "fake" MSM. You're like the little boy that cries wolf just to get attention. News organisations handle stories in the priority they see fit to handle for one reason or the other just becuase what they do does not fit your opinion of what a News organization should do does not make it "bias". We get it you love your buddy trump and you want to be like him ........you're looking as good as he does when he does this , yes, that was sarcasm.
