‘Newsbusters’ managing editor Curtis Houck accuses liberal media outlets of treating the congresswoman as innocent while portraying the investigation into her as politically motivated. “The Ilhan Omar story has been the October surprise that the liberal elitist media don't want to be talking about at all,” Mr Houck told News24 host Elizabeth Pipko. “They portray her as a victim. “You also have to presume that an investigation automatically isn’t false or made up, and that’s what the media are doing; they have presumed her innocent, not guilty, and the investigation is guilty of being fraudulent.”
