NBC interrupts Loudoun rape case blackout to insinuate a political plot against Terry McAuliffe

NBC News has finally reported on the Loudoun County, Virginia, school sexual abuse scandal, which involves teenage sexual assault, a cover-up by school administrators, and a raucous school board meeting that resulted in the bloodying and arrest of one victim’s father.

However, NBC hasn’t ended its blackout to cover the most newsworthy details, including government malfeasance, chronic school sexual abuse, or even law enforcement misconduct, but to suggest the outrage the story has inspired may be part of a plot against Democratic Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe.
