An actual memo went out from an ad hoc group of Democratic operatives (pretending to be advocates for women) to media organizations with orders on how to proceed with their coverage. The fact that they expected this partisan missive to be accepted and adhered to by media entities tells you all you need to know about the problem with today’s legacy media.

Hmm... A political party has members in the legislative branch of government who are telling the media how to frame their coverage... Maybe it doesn't technically violate any existing law (if it doesn't, it should), but it does seem rather dubious around the issue of having a "free and independent" press!
