The easiest way to cut down on all the “pouncing” (on Democrats) in politics?
Gundeck all critical insights.
Newswire service Reuters revealed over the weekend that one of its reporters sat on an explosive story about former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas) until after his contentious election battle against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) last year, only publishing the story once O’Rourke officially announced his presidential candidacy.
That’s one way of cutting down on all the anger and ire in politics today…

You should not believe Reuters now. The “Beto has mad h4x3r skills” story has a number of holes in it.

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature. Imagine if other–er–professions had the same ethics as journalists. A Senator has surgery for cataracts, wakes up blind and with his tongue removed. A Mayor hires an accountant to do his taxes and the accountant absconds with his tax refund. So a journalist out to protect his favorites and drive his enemies into ruin should surprise no one.
