Why has the Main Stream Media stopped reporting on the dozen or so investigations of ACORN?

There is at least 12 separate investigations into ACORN and their practices. Charges of Election registration fraud, and God knows what else. Yet now we hear nothing.

Update:

Voter registration fraud is a non-issue because Obama won? This is not sour grapes this is our Constitution under attack. I see that many Democrats don't care about that.

    There's a whole lo of things we'll not be hearing much more about. ACORN is only the tip of the iceberg.

    Because they've turned their attention to Gov. Palin - Is she a viable candidate for president in 2012? Will she run for the Senate? What about those clothes, did she keep them or return them? Why wasn't McCain more supportive of her on the Jay Leno show? Can Sarah Palin put the Katie Curick interview behind her? And, the latest, will Sarah Palin consider a post in Obama's cabinet? My word! That's all I've heard about these past few days - commentators giving their viewpoints on her chances to unite the Republicans again. They're so busy dissecting Gov. Palin, that A.C.O.R.N. is old news to them, now it's on to more ways to trash someone!

    Source(s): Voted for McCain/Palin, in spite of all the media bias!

    They never reported much about it. It wasn't important because it was about a faux-liberal Democrat. Only suspicious things about Republicans are of news interest.

    We all know that the news media is right wing, isn't it? It seems so strange, then, why they focus on good things about faux-liberal Democrats and focus on negative things they assign to what they call conservative Republicans.

    In today's society the immature, irrational attitude that whatever we like is good and true and whatever we don't like is bad and false prevails. That's the mindset of a spoiled and sheltered society, and the target of people who take advantage of such mindlessness. Even if they find something, Obama will be declared not connected to it.

    Actually, I suspect it is nonsense and Obama is relatively innocent. So are most of the Republicans who are accused of one thing after another. The difference is the media (right wing are they?) quickly drop accusations against faux-liberals and hold forever ones against "conservatives."

    Because, they can;t say anything that might be embarrassing for their main man. You know they can;t report anything that might be unfavorable to their hero. All negative reports must be cut from the news. Sad, sad days are ahead for America. It will come in small steps but gradually our freedoms are being taken away.

    They just did a whole story about it on CNN. They brought in a special investigator and everything...they said that ACORN was doing a cover-up or something.

    The media only cares about ratings. Now that the election is over, most people just don't care.
