Media Silence on Bombshell Russia-Gate Intelligence Revelations

This story isn’t going away—and for good reason. It’s a prime example of why Americans no longer trust our institutions, especially the mainstream corporate media.

For years, we were told—relentlessly—that Russia helped Donald Trump win the 2016 election. It dominated every major network. But after two years and $32 million taxpayer dollars, the Mueller Report found no criminal conspiracy between Trump and Russia.

Then came the Durham Report (2023), which exposed that the FBI launched the Trump-Russia investigation with zero verified intelligence.

Now, declassified documents from DNI Tulsi Gabbard allege that the Obama administration manipulated intel to push the Trump-Russia narrative to a willing media, which ran with it uncritically. President Obama denies the claims, and the DOJ is now investigating.

But the same media outlets that spent years hyping the Trump-Russia story are almost entirely silent now.

Tim Graham, Executive Editor of NewsBusters and Director of Media Analysis at the Media Research Center, joins Alicia Summers to break down this blackout and explain why narrative protection—not journalism—is driving coverage.
