The mayor of Seattle has resigned after a fifth child sex-abuse allegation, and here’s one media approach to the story courtesy of Newsweek:
Donald Trump Jr. has used the resignation of Seattle's mayor over sex abuse allegations to bash the Democrats https://t.co/3W0XiuazwP pic.twitter.com/MwTEYCEddz

It’s the time-honored MSM approach after a controversy surrounds Democrat or Democrats:
"Republicans pounce". . . Real journalism here!

Never fails.
Funny how Newsweek doesn't ID the mayor or the crime by name, but makes the story about Trump, Jr. https://t.co/JByVj98gku

Republicans Pounce on News of Pedophile Democrat https://t.co/VfRtx8Xd3f

"Forget that a democrat abused children, Donald Trump Jr said something mean about Democrats" https://t.co/zP0nw1dmd4

The story is Dem pedophile sex crimes, not Donald Jr.

That's what you're writing about. Not the actual Seattle Mayor being a pedo. Idiots. https://t.co/Iju9ASkYHa

Democrat is literally a pedophile. And still with the 'overreach' and 'pounce' stuff by GOP https://t.co/e3UIpuHAhO

Why aren't you expending this much energy actually covering the Seattle mayor's sexual abuse allegations? Partisan hack much? https://t.co/AGFA5IolYV
— Teresa Jackson (@RestoreHonor) September 16, 2017
This mayor has FIVE people accusing him of childhood sex abuse & Newsweek thinks it's about @DonaldJTrumpJr hurting DEMS? Twisted. Callous. https://t.co/L7OVtJ7NPR

Oh, like Newsweek did to the entire Republican Party in 2006 over Mark Foley. Check.
