[See NewsBusters for more.] Amidst the coverage, Tuesday, of the 2016 campaign and charges in possible coordination with Russia, CBS finally noticed the implication of a powerful Democrat, who just happened to be the brother of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign chairman. This Morning managed a scant 39 seconds to this news: “A leading Democratic Party lobbyist is under scrutiny after his firm was linked to Paul Manafort's indictment. Tony Podesta resigned from the Podesta Group yesterday.” Co-host Gayle King added, “He is the brother of John Podesta, the chairman of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. The Podesta Group lobbied for the pro-Russian Ukrainian group with ties to Paul Manafort.”
