Media hypocrisy in two screenshots: A tale of dueling Washington Post editorials

The hypocritical coverage of the FBI’s investigation of Hillary Clinton is summed up perfectly in these two Washington Post editorial headlines. The first praises FBI director James Comey for “doing his job” when he did not recommend prosecution for Hillary Clinton. The second chides Comey for the “damage” announcing the further investigative steps could do.

I wonder if @washingtonpost editorial staff were consciously aware of their shift to pure propaganda or if it came like a creeping disease? https://t.co/WcMgdml067
