AP, NY Times Still Not Covering Cedric Richmond’s Sick Conway ‘Joke’
On Thursday, Kristine Marsh at NewsBusters noted that "none of the big three networks or cable news found time" to report Louisiana Democratic Congressman Cedric Richmond's "vile sexual joke" directed the previous evening at Trump presidential adviser Kellyanne Conway. The fact that the establishment press's lead gatekeepers at the Associated Press and the New York Times had no story likely influenced that nonresponse - and despite Richmond's determination to claim that he didn't mean what he really said and refusal to apologize, they still haven't.
