So what was the collective sin of the CNN moderators last week? According to NewsBusters, they had failed to press Donald Trump for a response regarding documented claims that a reporter had been manhandled by Corey Lewandowski, Trumps campaign manager, at a public event.
NewsBusters was also upset that the alleged assault had received minimal time on the network evening newscasts: The main broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC largely remained silent on Lewandowskis alleged actions toward a female reporter until Thursday.
Wait, what?
Its true: Following a Republican debate, the conservative NewsBusters pointed out that the media wasnt paying sufficient attention to a news story that reflected poorly on the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination.
And with that, were officially through the looking glass, to the point where conservative critiques of the campaign press now read like Media Matters essays: Journalists are too soft on Trump, rewarding him with too much airtime and allowing him to dictate access ground rules.
