The media facilitated the Russia hoax
...
The employees of these media corporations know, deep down, what they did. They did the worst thing you can possibly do while calling yourself a "journalist": they drowned US politics for years in a fake conspiracy theory funded and concocted by criminals for partisan gain.
But we have heard so little about these indictments from these media figures. Why? Because they know that as long as they stay united in silence, the only people who will point out what they did are those they have frozen out of their circle and trained their audience not to hear
The NYT, the WPost, CNN, NBC and the digital liberal outlets are all vastly more guilty of what they have spent years claiming Trump and the GOP are: they basically ran a dangerous disinformation campaign, full of lies, in conjunction with CIA/FBI, and now won't own up to it.
From the start, Russiagate -- which drowned US politics and dangerously ratcheted up tensions with a major nuclear-armed power -- was concocted from whole cloth by serial liars paid for by the Clinton campaign and spread by their media servants: David Corn, Isikoff, Frank Foer.
They all made gigantic profit from this set of lies: all of them. Their ratings skyrocketed by scaring liberals about Kremlin control of the US. They wrote best-selling books and gave themselves Pulitzers based on this massive fraud. FBI lied to the FISA court. CIA fueled it all.
In 2019, @mtaibbi called Russiagate "this generation's WMDs."That was before these indictments. But from a media credibility perspective, this is worse. With WMD, they engaged in self-critique. With this, they never will: the media model doesn't allow it.

There is much more and it is worth reading in full.
There were Democrats in Congress who also knowingly perpetrated this lie for political reasons such as Pelosi and Adam Schiff and others. This is looking like the ultimate disinformation campaign that Big Tech also did little to nothing to stop.

And:
Maybe it’s time the Washington Post and The New York Times return those Russian collusion Pulitzers
I think failure to return them shows a lack of integrity.
