How the heck did this story go under the radar until this point? Like, wasn't our president just at a meeting with Sisi and Salman? Shouldn't this have been the lead-up to basically all the coverage a la "President Trump, facing further questions about his campaign's relationship with Russian intelligence heads to Saudi Arabia, amid rising tensions between the many Gulf states and their neighbor Qatar?"
I mean, even now it's not the headline story on NBC (Putin interview), CNN (Trump comments on London), Fox (UK Burka Ban?), NYT (ISIS claiming responsibility for attack), Breitbart (Putin Interview), or the Washington Post (Trump comments on London).
No matter what their political bent, all outlets are biased in favor of easy-to-digest stories which can be explained entirely in a single sentence.
