1 democrat, 1 republican, both have scandals... here is how they are covered differently...

A look at accused child rapist, democrat bob menendez and now the current Republican scandal...

Media Coverage Of Rep. Chris Collins’ Indictment Vs. Sen. Menendez’s Trial

Comparatively, when Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez was going on trial for corruption-related charges, many print outlets declined to even mention his party affiliation. (RELATED: Media Fails In Coverage Of Sen. Menendez Corruption Trial)

The New York Times, despite mentioning Collins’ party affiliation and Trump ties in their lead, managed to write an entire 1300-word story on the Menendez trial without once mentioning that he is a Democrat. Menendez’s party affiliation was later added to the piece, but even then it was slipped into the fourth paragraph. (RELATED: NYT Writes 1300 Words About Dem Senator’s Corruption Trial Without Mentioning He’s A Democrat)


NBC News, when republishing a wire from the Associated Press, mistakingly said in their lead that Menendez is a Republican. The mistake was not published in the original AP report, suggesting that NBC News added it on their own. The article was not corrected for two hours. (RELATED: NBC NEWS Wrongly Claims Sen. Menendez Is A Republican)

The amount of coverage of the two cases has been vastly different as well. (RELATED: CNN Hardly Covers Menendez Trial, Despite Calling It ‘Big Deal’)

CNN, for example, only dedicated 14 minutes and 11 seconds of coverage to the entire first two weeks of the Menendez trial, yet they managed to spend 15 minutes on the Collins’ indictment in just the first segment of their 10 a.m. news hour — the first full hour of programming following the breaking news. CNN spent another 12 minutes on Collins during the first segment of the 11 a.m. news hour and has continued the heavy coverage since.

MSNBC has similarly covered the Collins indictment on every hour of programming since the news broke, but they only mentioned the Menendez four times in total on the first day of the trial. CNN only mentioned the trial twice on air on the first day.

How is "party affiliation" relevant to either?

Ask the media that, since most only headline a Rep charged in their titles.

Menendez voluntarily stepped down as ranking member of the Foreign Relations Committee after his indictment.[153] Menendez's trial began on September 6, 2017, before Judge William H. Walls of the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey.[150] On November 16, 2017, the judge declared a mistrial due to the jury's continuing inability to reach a unanimous verdict on any of the charges.[154] On January 31, 2018, the Justice Department announced they were dropping all charges against Menendez.[4] The Menendez case was strongly shaped by McDonnell v. United States, the 2016 Supreme Court decision to dismiss the corruption conviction of former Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell, which narrowed the legal definition of public corruption and made it harder for prosecutors to prove that a political official engaged in bribery.[155][156]

In April 2018, Menendez was "severely admonished" by the United States Senate Select Committee on Ethics in a letter.[157]--https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Menendez#2015_federal_indictment_on_corruption_charges

Actually I'm asking the OP about that since HE'S THE ONE TRYING TO MAKE IT INTO AN ISSUE. If you go by his description the media has been inconsistent. Which means the obsession is his.

Oh look. The OP has no answer. Who saw that coming. Oh look. You don't either.

I know exactly what I'm doing. You can't even figure out the quote function.

Because moron, the democrat press smears the Republican party with every crime of each member, and then they hide the party affiliation of the democrats, so that obama, the mope, can sit there with a straight face and claim his administration was scandal free..... menendez, accused of major felonies including child rape, and no one knows who his party is..... as the democrats protect their criminals, and the democrats in the press make sure to smear all republicans....

So you have no answer.

Yeah I already knew that. That's exactly why I posed the question.
