Some consider the Nation’s Capital as “Fantasyland on the Potomac”. Other outsiders are “Fed Up” with the Federal City. It's better to consider D.C. as “the District of Calamity” (sic).

Media "Incuriouser and Incuriouser" about Clinton Involvement in Uranium One Scandal
In Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass" (1865), the protagonist exclaims: "Curiouser and curiouser", when she was surprised. Sadly, much of America is not surprised at how "Incuriouser and incuriouser" the mainstream media is over the cover-up of Obama Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's (D-NY) participation in the Russian Uranium One scandal.
One would think that violations of Mrs. Clinton's MOU for joining the Obama Administration, lying about her non-participation, graft coming into the Clinton Foundation and husband Bill Clinton's speaking fees, and the national security issue concerning the 2009 sale of 1/5th of US uranium prospects might garner some attention of the self proclaimed Fourth Estate. Alas, the breaking news about Uranium One deal details merited ZERO seconds on the networks' evening news.
Many Old Guard elitist frown upon President Trump's continued use of Twitter. However, the President was able to circumvent establishment media censorship of an embarrassing scandal which turns the year old attempt to smear the Trump Presidency over Russian collusion on its head. It also highlights how one of the most pernicious powers of the press is the power not to cover an issue.
This highlights the importance of New Media as well as the efficacy of social media to circumvent de facto censorship from the Establishment.
