>> And, I suppose, your criteria as to what is a far left news organization is whether or not they label it a "scandal"?

MSNBC is a far left news organization, except they aren't really "news". CNN is far left. NYT and WaPo are far left.

Everyone knows them when they see them.

>> Was Christie involved? Hard to imagine that his top aides would have gone rogue for inexplicable reasons.

It isn't about imagining. It is about proof. For example, proof as in the Benghazi incident, when it has been PROVEN that Susan Rice was sent out to lie on the networks. That is an example of proof. Or about the IRS scandal, where it was proved that there was targeting of conservative organizations. Or about Obamacare, where there were outright lies, covered by illegal actions of the president. All those are scandals.

It is NOT, however, a scandal when employees of a governor act on their own without any proof that the governor was involved. And when the governor promptly holds those employees accountable by FIRING THEM ON THE SPOT (which is a pretty significant act of confidence, in the first place -- as firing would bring about retribution from the employees if they had anything).

Practically everyone has been amazed that Christie has been shown to have been clean in this. But his actions are totally consistent with his not having been involved. He is, in fact, squeaky clean and he has been an unwarranted target of the left wing nutjobs at MSNBC.
