A lengthy expose by journalist Sharyl Attkisson has shed light on the widespread practice in journalism wherein reporters collaborate covertly with political interests, from politicians' campaigns to the CIA, to promote their causes and narratives.
She prefaced her expose by pointing out that she's not referring to "Viewpoint journalism" and those who work for ideological news groups; instead, she takes aim at those who claim to be independent journalists but actually work to push certain narratives on behalf of others.
It's interesting to note that many of these questionable reporters have worked for multiple national news organizations even after they've had individual scandals, leading her to believe that they are being hired to provide coverage with a particular slant.
Not surprisingly, much of his work props up the intelligence community and disparages Donald Trump.
In another incident, Scott Shane, a reporter for the New York Times, privately supplied the State Department Public Affairs Office with an advance story publication schedule pertaining to a major controversy at Hillary Clinton's State Department, providing her with as much as a week to spin the revelations in the stories in her favor or create other diversions.
Chief political correspondent for Politico Glenn Thrush sent a Clinton campaign official part of an article he was working on seeking approval prior to publication.
