The Overton Window has shifted so far that what would have previously been regime ending scandals are now everyday occurrences.
Also, you're right about the media being cowardly but there's also just too much to report and keep people updated on. Even the more independent outlets who try ... can't.
They could skip coverage of the UFC fight, and Kennedy Center name, the reflecting pool, and the 250th carnival, and WH ballroom, and all the things that are practically nothing compared to all the other f*ckery.

This is the biggest indictment of the media, they can't summarize or aggregate? It's not giving the public a true picture. Crooks can get away with corruption in plain sight merely by doing lots of it? It beggars belief.
