Two weeks before an election, that new insidery Republican DC news outlet, spawned from the various other insidery Republican DC news outlets, is reporting that a sitting Democratic senator is UNDER FEDERAL INVESTIGATION.
I don't think journalists are obligated to obey these fake rules about not announcing such things or taking visible actions close to elections, of course, but I do think more of them should not pretend they are actually rules that are followed. We have a couple VERY RECENT examples highlighting how silly this notion is.
