I think there is a big story relating to this election, on the scale of the run up to the Iraq War, that I fear the press will again miss. Three questions:

1. What the heck is going in the FBI? Depending on whether you are Republican or Democrat you probably think either the FBI is not doing their job in pursuing an obviously guilty person (Hillary), OR you think the FBI attempted, and perhaps succeeded, in influencing the election. Either way, the integrity of the FBI is now in doubt.

2. The facts are someone or some entity hacked into the DNC and the GOP and the DNC emails were published on the Internet. Why? If Russia is hacking in to the political parties I doubt it is just for the LOLs. If Russia favored Trump, why? Who stands to gain?  And why does it seem as though Trump won't even consider Russia is behind the hacking? If you truly are concerned about corruption in government, you want to know the answer, which brings me to...

3. Why should we trust the FBI, which is the only investigative arm of the federal government, to actually get to  and expose the truth? Who is going to investigate the investigators? 

A functioning press, fulfilling its role in our government would provide part of the answer. Unfortunately, the press has too often demonstrated, such as during the run up to the Iraq War, the ability to be distracted by the sensational that increases profits rather in truth telling. Oh, and keep in mind how the government actively pursues whistleblowers, no doubt to protect against the likes of Deep Throat.

The story here could be on the scale of Watergate. Heck, it is a repeat of Watergate in that back then DNC offices were broken in to and the Nixon administration attempted to cover up their role in the break in. Hacking is the modern day form of breaking and entering. Back then the press exposed corruption in government, could today's press even notice such a thing were happening?
