As Twitchy told you, California prosecutors have brought 15 felony charges against the Center for Medical Progress’ David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt. Daleiden and Merritt’s crimes? Using undercover videos to expose Planned Parenthood’s heinous organ trafficking scheme.
Surely the mainstream media are up in arms over this news. They must be! Right?
Will media outlets that commonly employ this reporting technique be charged as well? Will they speak out against this abuse of power? https://t.co/IcENLvLhYc

I'm sure we're going to have all investigative journalists stand in solidarity with this attack on a free and unrestrained press, right? https://t.co/6X9BkHrkuc

Surely the first people to come to their defense are the brave truth tellers in media and Mother Jones, who are just like firefighters pic.twitter.com/bYmVb3ghOc

If you’re waiting for media mainstays to stand up and defend Daleiden and Merritt’s work, it looks like you’ll be waiting a while.

We’re so old, we remember when undercover videos were embraced by the media:
Undercover video investigations are a common, decades-old reporting tactic long used by all of the major media outlets.

The media was rewarded with praise — not criminal charges.
ABC News received a Peabody Award for an undercover segment on a medical laboratory. Where's the media now? https://t.co/EemQre6OTt

Strangely, the makers of that undercover video were not charged by California authorities, but the meat-packing co. eventually folded.

The media’s silence today is absolutely deafening.
You can bet that if the people behind the Romney 47% video had been prosecuted the media would've been outraged.
