Here's one example where partisanship in the US media does the country a gross disservice. Unless we venture into Nazi level abuses, it's hard to top the Cash for Kids scandal mentioned in the article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kids_for_cash_scandal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kids_for_cash_scandal). One judge arranged for a private juvenile prison to replace a state one (he claims the company bribed him, the official story goes with their claim he shook them down), another judge sent a lot of kids there, for "crimes" as trivial as saying bad things about a teacher (yeah, protected or at least not criminal speech), there was at least one suicide implicated, etc. There aren't many contemporary US injustices I've read about that made me this angry. Then a Federal judge said to the prosecutors that, no, I'm not going to accept nothingburger tax evasion as I recall 7 years in prison plea bargain, eventually judge sending the children to the prison was convicted and sentenced to 28 years (Federal, so no parole), the other plea bargained for a more just 17.5 years. Now, see that above Wikipedia link? You won't find out from it what political party these judges belonged to. Which tells you which one, if they'd been Republicans this would have been reported in screaming worldwide headlines, used in the 2010 and on elections, etc. But very few know about it, it's not much more than a local story. ADDED: just really looked at the linked Washington Post article and it's clear this is part of the current effort to trash Rubio, who competes for the same local political campaign donor pool as Jeb Bush, whom you'll not be surprised is not well regarded by a large fraction of the Republican party.
