Major CBS Chicago investigative report reveals scandal for politician, fails to mention he’s a Democrat once

But this omission by CBS Chicago shows another side of the issue as mainstream media runs cover for Democrats whenever they can. We reached out to the news outlet with no reply thusfar.

C.B.S. -- Commie Broadcasting System. Great example of lying by omission.

I assume this is a joke? Anyone bothering to watch the local Chicago news certainly knows that Mike Madigan is a Dem, a crook and largely responsible for bankrupting (not official, yet) the state. Identifying Madigan as Dem, on a Chicago news station, would be like mentioning Trump is a Republican on the CBS Evening News. It happens, but it isn't necessary.

Oh...I see. But as the piece correctly stated, if this has been some Republican, the "R" word would have been mentioned at least 20 times, not to mention the fact that by virtue of the person being a rascally Republican, the report would have also made sure that Trump's automatic involvement in that person's nefarious schemes received numerous mentions as well.

Like when KCTV5, the CBS affiliate in Kansas, reported about REPUBLICAN Steve Watkins' alleged voter fraud?

By 20 times, you meant zero times, right?

Pretty short clip.

But having said that, they, too, should have reported his party affiliation. No reporting agency should assume that every single reader, viewer or listener is so political savvy that they would automatically know this information.

We agree, but rest assured most know that Mike Madigan is the boss of the IL Dem Machine. The federal prosecutor, John Lausch, is their worst nightmare.

"Out of more than 8,000 federal contributions from over 550 CDC employees since 2015, only five went to Republican PACs or candidates.

The vast majority of donations went to ActBlue, an online fundraising platform for Democratic and left-leaning organizations. Other common recipients included Bernie 2020, Biden for President, Hillary for America, and Warren for President, Inc.

Employee contributions include those from epidemiologists, public health advisors, economists, physicians and health communication specialists working at both the Atlanta and Washington offices."
