I have a theory for why the mainstream press won't push stories about inhumane treatment in ICE facilities and the like

It's b/c when you write those stories and really report out the details and wrestle with them, you're left with the conclusion that Trump supporters are *evil*

And the mainstream press doesn't like painting Trump supporters are *evil*, because they're fellow whites. So they have to be dumb or duped or aggrieved or misled, but they can't be *evil.*

B/c if they're *evil* then the press has to wrestle with the fact that their racist family members are also evil. Some of their colleagues are evil. And they'd have to atone for their professional help in promoting evil through their massive "but her emails" campaign.

They CAN'T do that. They can't look at themselves in the mirror that harshly for that long. And do they'd rather talk about Russia or whatever he said on Twitter.

They can't LOOK at what Trump is doing in concentration camps, b/c then they'd have to look at themselves.
