For some inexplicable reason, the national media is not covering the videos of Dem. State Rep. Brian Sims harassing pro-life women

A quick search of verified accounts on Twitter shows that the national media has pretty much avoided any coverage of State Rep. Brian Sims’ (D-PA) posting videos where he harasses pro-life women outside of Planned Parenthood clinicis:

Remember when the Covington Catholic teens “smirked” at Native American man who marched into their midst with a drum? Media mayhem & outcry

A PA State Rep films himself harassing teen girls & asks his followers to dox them, while mocking their race & prayers. Total media silence

A high school kid with a smirk gets national coverage. A state representative offering money to dox teenage girls for the crime of being pro-life? Nothing:

A lot of people have a hard time understanding/accepting how a video of a HS kid smiling was the focus of national media outrage for weeks, but video of a State Rep harassing pro-life women gets almost no national coverage outside right-wing media.

It’s their bias that’s the problem:

The answers is simple: Most national reporters are on the left and mostly follow people on the left. They assume outrage among people they follow/agree with is worthy of coverage. They assume outrage on the right is just partisan anger unworthy of coverage.

We will note that there is local coverage of the story, however:

And this is where you really notice the difference between national and local media (which are not nearly as partisan).

Plenty of local outlets are covering it:https://t.co/bH7ip3MJQu https://t.co/IUF4fyC1Ts
