A politician got arrested for doing 116mph in a 45mph zone. Sentenced to 1000 hours of community service in lieu of prison, he devoted 500 of those hours to his own political campaign, obfuscating to the court about how he did his community service. He also not only texted a colleague about murdering other politicians, but when the recipient of the text messages objected, he called her to argue the point, insisting his opponents were worthy of assassination.

But the politician is Jay Jones, a Democrat in Virginia. So what would be a national news story were he a Republican with Manu Raju of CNN and others shoving microphones in the faces of congressmen on Capitol Hill demanding to know if they condemn him, will, instead, be a local story so local that even the major press outlets in Virginia try to avoid it.
