You were asked for ONE example.  Sounds like you are referring to MANY.

I watched a deal of Fox news last night.  Tucker, Hannity Ingraham and guests were celebrating the total vindication of Fox's two years of denial of collusion and demanding apologies from the MSM which "of course they won't give" because they will never admit they were wrong.  Barr proved he was on the side of the people and defending the Constitution.

Tucker said that that night was THE LAST time he would be talking about Russian collusion because it was finally put to rest.  Bret Hume was so angry at the flak Fox had received for carrying the Donald's water all this time.  The ONLY NETWORK THAT HAD IT RIGHT FROM THE START. If there was no collusion then there was no crime to investigate and no real investigation to obstruct.  And even if Trump did obstruct he was only worried about the damage done to his presidency because of crime of which he was TOTALLY INNOCENT.  Trump's rationales for lying about business ties to Russia were perfectly good and the myriad contacts and interaction between his campaign and the Russians no big deal--certainly nothing to warrant FBI attention.  

Hannity and numerous guests are ready now for the real investigation into FISA warrants and Obama-led spying to advance Hillary.

I find hour after hour of this sort of thing really scary, especially when I think that many or most of the Trump base do not look at "fake news" MSM.

The fake news like CNN (Communist News Network) and MSNBC delved deeply into Mueller's rationale: Trump not exonerated from the charge of obstruction; sitting president can/should not be indicted; the only remedy is Congress. Barr stepped into to deflect and cloud the legal issues--working for the president and not the people/constitution. And MANY ACTUAL EXAMPLES of obstruction were discussed. I believe the hard count was 11.

So we have a president who repeatedly obstructed justice, whose orders to commit crimes were disobeyed by "deep state" resistance.

To put this another way, the nation's chief law enforcement officer was ordering people to break the law, but FOX and Trump's base say "no harm no foul."
