Establishment media is poised to let Swalwell off the hook for Chinese spy story

Swalwell thinks he can simply weather the storm, and he probably can. The same liberal media outlets that had him on their airwaves or in the papers to rant about Russian collusion won’t be bothered to press him on his relationship with a Chinese spy. The New York Times, recently considered the national “newspaper of record,” has plenty of pieces warning of how much the Russians liked former GOP Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, but it still hasn’t even acknowledged the Swalwell story.

 New York Times has yet to run a story on Eric Swalwell's connection to Chinese spy two weeks after story broke

Several other media outlets, including the Washington Post, MSNBC, and CNN, have also been criticized for their sparse coverage of the Swalwell story, which some have said has been far less aggressive than coverage of alleged connections between President Trump and the Russian government during the 2016 campaign.
