The big story for us today is the release of a trove of FOIA’d emails to and from Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Notice that we said “for us,” because apparently it wasn’t a big story in the minds of many in the White House press corps today:
There was not even one reporter today in the press pool who had the courage to ask the White House about Fauci's emails.

We just went through an entire White House briefing (an hour long) without a single question about the Fauci emails.
Journalism is dead.

Not a single reporter asked about the #FauciEmails at today's press briefing.
Astonishing… but not surprising.

Is it true NOT ONE reporter asked about the Fauci emails in the White House briefing today…? Wow.

Was there, can confirm. Had the same Q about ransomware attacks asked about six different ways, plus a Q about a beer partnership for vaccines.

Amber Athey would have asked, but she wasn’t called on:
I was going to ask about Fauci's emails at today's WH press briefing but unfortunately I was not called on

Psaki probably would have deferred and suggested the question be directed to the NIH. Or maybe a promise to…
Circle back

That very well might have happened (if she’d have been asked about it).
Want to know how dead our media is? Not a single "journalist" asked the White House press secretary, Jen Psaki, about the Fauci emails.
THEY ARE ALL IN ON IT.
