CNN breathlessly covered the Trump-Russia collusion theory for years but ignored Wednesday’s latest development.

Jenna Ellis, Trump 2020 senior legal adviser, says the campaign was left with no choice but to file lawsuits to fight 'false and defamatory statements' by the press.

Top Obama administration officials -- including ex-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, who is now a CNN analyst, and others working with then-Vice President Joe Biden -- purportedly requested to "unmask" the identity of the former national security adviser during the presidential transition period, according to a made public by Republican senators on Wednesday. The DOJ had been reviewing the unmasking of U.S.

CNN host Jake Tapper didn't even mention it in the Wednesday’s edition of his show “The Lead,” which began shortly after the news broke. The story wasn't mentioned on the cable news channel, or on its website, within the first three hours after the bombshell story hit. CNN eventually published a story to its website headlined, “GOP senators release list of Obama officials in latest effort to undermine Russia probe.”
