I remember when Obama was President and the Benghazi incident was hot, the news people often complained that nothing could get done because of the distraction. Now the Russian incident is causing the same concern. It appears that the press believes that the only thing the government can concentrate on is what they put in the news. Has the congress gone into hibernation waiting for the latest scandal to be resolved? Not hardly. Work is continuing on the tax laws, replacing Obamacare, reforming emigration law and going after ISIS. The press seems to think that what they report determines what the government does when in fact the reverse is true except for ratings. When the press finds something that is easy to explain and scintillating they go all out with it and it is they who can only do one thing at time. What is more news worthy, tax reform or a Trump tweet? That is why a sex scandal always leads in the news.
