Newsrooms Punish leakers in organization but praise them in the government

What gives 🙁

Denies leaking anything

I'm old enough to remember when the media thought whistleblowers should be protected.

I'm two days old.

You mean you weren’t born yesterday?

Nope, 48 hours and going strong!

I'm so confused, the media seems to have different rules for democrats than they do republicans.

Anyone who leaked in the Obama admin was outcast and had a scarlet letter. Now anyone who leaks against Trump is a hero😂

I thought you left

The news organizations are not independent. Like any profit driven organization that amasses a lot of power, it gets corrupted. Trump unfortunately is correct about “fake news” in that regard. If there’s one positive, it’s that he’s shone a light on the hypocrisy of some of the larger organizations.
