Brit Hume says Mueller report coverage 'worst journalistic fiasco' he's seen in 50-year news career

Veteran journalist Brit Hume called the media's coverage of President Trump's alleged collusion with Russia the "worst journalistic fiasco" he's seen in his 50-year career.

Hume's criticism comes in light of a trending social media theme of #Obamagate after former President Barack Obama expressed his concern over the Justice Department dropping charges against Trump's former national security adviser Michael Flynn last Friday.

Flynn was fired in early 2017 for lying about conversations he had with the Russian ambassador. Trump and his allies have accused Obama of being aware of a "deep state" ploy within the highest levels of federal law enforcement to deny Trump the presidency.

Trump has been the subject of a longtime media storyline linking his 2016 campaign team to Russia.
