Bloomberg News won’t do investigative reporting on any Democratic presidential candidates now that the organization’s owner, Michael Bloomberg, has jumped into the 2020 race

Bloomberg News won’t do investigative reporting on any Democratic presidential candidates now that the news organization’s multibillionaire owner, Michael Bloomberg, has jumped into the 2020 race, but it intends to cover day-to-day campaign events normally, the company said.

The news service has historically not covered its own company or its owner, and its editor-in-chief said it will stick with that practice even though Mr. Bloomberg is now running for the highest office in the land.

He just wanted a way to run ads again Thump so he is running for President he a wolf 🐺 in sheep’s clothing 🐑 and he will come for your guns 👎 and your money 💰

Notice that Bloomberg didn't say that he would do investigating of Republican candidates.

While I agree with this decision, I don't agree with him trying to buy the nomination

Just another 79 year old political elite trying relive his past wish list. The part time Mayor should relax and enjoy what quality of life he may have.

billpostmus 😂😂😂😂 investigative reporting! Yeah that’s what they’re known for!

They do business reporting not political

billpostmus Even more proof he is only running to skirt campaign donation laws. Easy way to pump tens of millions of $$ into anti Trump ads while helping ensure far less negative coverage of the other Democrats. One of which will win the nomination.

It’s scary to think that someone who owns a huge media conglomerate can run for President

How many news organizations truly do investigative reporting. All main media stations are 6 in number. Antitrust was not pursued to disable the bought medias.

Just like the rest of the MSM. ALL LEFT ALL THE TIME

How convenient.

One more reason no billionaire should ever be constfor public office.

There is a moral in every story; it just varies from void (nothingness) to the entire truth! All stories are self-centred, with a mix of facts & fiction! When all stories cease in your mind, you will see the ultimate truth of the Self, your pristine & denuded consciousness!

He needs to jump right back out of the race.

Ridiculous

And they wouldn't have to do any investigating reporting on the Republican because Trump doesn't know how to keep his freaking mouth shut. It was a 'perfect call' who talks like that?

That started well now didn’t it ....

So now they’re only going to report negatively on the President, and not *any* Democrat candidates? Are you serious? Journalistic independence, you can’t only report the truth of one side of an issue. That’s not real journalism.

Yea’ another billionaire wanting even more... meh’ go away.

Well there is always other news providers like France24_en BBCWorld Reuters democracynow dwnews TheDailyShow

Typical

So you're telling us that the shity Democrats running for President doesnt matter what they have done, what they're doing now or what they l plan to do. Figures you are the DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

News organization 🤔

Reading the replies, I don't get the problem with this. If he's in the race, a news organization that he is affiliated with shouldn't comment on the race. If he wins nomination, should apply to general election too.

That’s all we all need! Totally Trump coverage only! Lord have mercy!

GreaseBall

How about republicans and independents?

Lol. Did they before?

Did they do any investigative to begin with?

Seriously, did they do any investigation before? When there is evidence, Democrats lie. When there is no evidence, Democrats lie. See the difference?

When did it ever

Remember when news organizations put reporting the truth above all else? No, neither do I, but there were stories from my great grandfather...

WSJ Won’t do any investigations on corporate-backed GOP politicians in the current corrupt administration, so I guess things are even.

I believe you The Wall Street Journal and other left wing and right wing medias will do investigative reporting on democratic presidential candidates, so I pay less attention on this piece of news. What I concern is fair report!

Nice objective journalism.....

This is ridiculous. As if they would investigate a Democrat anyway, but still. Sad, but not surprised.

Well let see how the left and the MSM treats this lefty billionaire

Why not? He should do exposes of all the other candidates. Duh!

They shouldn’t do any at all.

This is a sick joke for American! How could he as an admirer of CCP dictator be the UnitedStates president?

But they will continue to do their so-called 'investigations' into the Republican candidate, right?

Hey Michael do you want to be remembered as the man who single handily saved America? Buy FOX News.

How convenient.

Mr Boomberg is a gentleman. Generous donate money to fight against climate change.

PeteButtigieg 🇺🇸 2020 👍 The right man.

Reverse fox news

I think we need someone who will just be the President of the United States - our president - that is enough. Seeing more conflicts of interest and entanglements make me want to just spit.

Seems like a problem. News owner and political candidate.

Media is the enemy of the people!!!!

But they will go all in on Trump......for free.

wow, wow, this doesn't sound right - this sounds too Trumpish. No, just no.....

No more fake news from Bloomberg hates Trump?

So what, neither will any other corporate media outlet. Will they extend Donald Trump the same courtesy?

'Stop & Frisk Mike' Bloomberg doesn't have a snowball's chance in HELL of winning the Black primary vote and without it he cannot get the nomination. Arrogant little Mike is a globalist financier that will hand ALL the Black Jobs created under TRUMP back to the Chinese.

Total 💩🐷

Bloomberg News will not investigate Mike Bloomberg or his Democratic rivals during primary'We will continue our tradition of not investigating Mike (and his family and foundation ) and we will extend the same policy to his rivals in the Democratic primaries. We cannot treat Mike's democratic competitors differently from him,' wrote Bloomberg Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait. It'll certainly make their coverage of Election2020 'interesting'. How to be impartial when your boss is in the race?!?!?!? How UnAmerican. NBC Refused to investigate the fake Steele Dossier or anything negative to Democrats for the last 3 years
