And by sitting on their hands, the side effect is that it gives the impression "nothing to see here folks". The media already is so skewed to the right that they for sure will not go out of their way to demonize Republicans if even the Democrats are yawning over some incident.

Maybe in the past Dems could simply rely on the public's (and media's) common sense of decency to see the obvious malfeasance. And that it would be 'beneath them' to sully their hands with pushing the narrative.

But these are different times. Shock journalism, infotainment, 24 hours news, mostly owned by the right. If they don't play the game they will be simply ignored.
