Many in the mainstream media wanted Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation to result in a scandal similar to Watergate, reporter Joe Concha of the Hill said Wednesday night on Fox News' "Hannity." "[Reporting] was always in the direction of [President] Trump, Trump associates -- in terms of, 'There is collusion, here's our story, here's the proof' -- based on nefarious sources, bad sources," he said. Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein were the Washington Post journalists who reported on former President Richard Nixon's Watergate scandal, which led to Nixon's resignation in 1974. Concha said that, in the case of the Mueller investigation, "They believed information that was fed to them that wasn't necessarily true."
