White House becomes 'irritated' with Fox News border reporter Bill Melugin

What's more, there are signs of a coordinated campaign. All of a sudden, Media Matters, a flaming lapdog of the Democrats, has turned its slime machine onto Melugin, and this came just shortly before the White House put word out about its "irritation."

Monica Showalter  . . ."There’s a tall Fox News reporter in his mid-30s with slicked back hair and an air of combative indignation who is getting under the skin of some people in JOE BIDEN’s administration. And he’s not PETER DOOCY.

"BILL MELUGIN, a former local Los Angeles Emmy-winning reporter, has become a growing presence online and in broader political circles as Fox’s go-to reporter at the U.S. southern border. He’s done hundreds of television hits since joining the network last year, largely from border states, where he often focuses on the historic flow of migrants that are overwhelming communities there.". . .

. . ."Which is kind of laughable, not on Melugin, but on Politico, which seems to think shoeleather reporting and persistence, which includes not being daunted by officials attempting to block the news, is some kind of innovation. I guess it is -- to them.

"Melugin, on the other hand, is an authentic journalist practicing the trade he purports to practice, which is a true breath of fresh air for a public weary at news media outlets serving primarily as mouthpieces for the increasingly inchoate Biden administration.

"But if Politico can be laughed at for what it considers "a new style" of journalism, the White House cannot. 

"This attack leak comes just as the border crisis is finally hitting home with the public, now that the entire country is watching, mesmerized, as Gov. Ron DeSantis, and Gov. Greg Abbott begin shipping handfuls of illegal border crossers to wealthy, white, leftist enclaves such as Martha's Vineyard, and now, Joe Biden's vacay redoubt of Rehoboth Beach, and the leftists, whose hypocrisy has been exposed by it, are screaming.

"We know they are screaming because border security has become a top election issue as midterms beckon and Congress is likely to change hands, putting a leash on Joe Biden's runaway spending and lawless open border regime. Suddenly, this issue has risen to the top of voter concerns.

"Now all of a sudden a hit piece appears in White House house organ Politico, speaking of the administration's "irritation" as if to put Melugin on notice. Obviously, they would like him to know that they are watching him.". . .
