"The Department of the Interior has said that the issue is being resolved quickly with treatments, which may offer a partial explanation of the media blitz: These left-wing outlets want to squeeze as much anti-Trump fodder out of the algae bloom before it is gone."
The Federalist "Corporate media are pulling out all the stops, sending their most seasoned left-wing reporters to cover this week’s national scandal: algae blooms in the newly renovated Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Their dedication to this minor story shows how these media outlets have the capacity to focus on important things like crime, fraud, homelessness, and drug use plaguing America’s cities, but choose not to in order to score political points in favor of their Democrat friends.
"Americans have been bombarded with algae coverage by the likes of CNN, ABC, CBS, and the rest of the usual suspects, who are offering wall-to-wall coverage of algae growing in the reflecting pool to undermine President Donald Trump’s push to beautify the nation’s capital after decades of disrepair and neglect. They are essentially arguing that the $14 million renovations were not worth it, and that somehow its previous state of total disrepair is better than the attempt to fix one of America’s most recognizable national monuments.
"As the Department of the Interior, which oversees the pool’s maintenance, pointed out, algae “has plagued every Lincoln Reflecting Pool reopening — most infamously Obama’s reopening — since 1922.”
"Notwithstanding the fact that the reflecting pool has had algae problems essentially since it was built, the time and money put into news coverage of the algae issue stand in stark contrast to the lack of time and resources these deep-pocketed outlets put into reporting on the genuine national crises plaguing the country.
"Take, for example, the near-media blackout on coverage of one of the nation’s largest sewage spills in history in January, when between 200 and 300 million gallons of untreated sewage spilled into the Potomac River — a body of water that is just hundreds of feet away from the Lincoln Memorial. The result was 12,000 times the safe amount of E. Coli in the water.
"For CNN’s part, it offered an Associated Press wire (meaning the outlet did not even assign a reporter to cover the issue at first), followed by a 1:18-minute segment on Jake Tapper’s program, an article stating that “politicians snipe” about who is responsible for the spill, and a smattering of social media updates." . . .More...
