More in the cross-post on the MRC's NewsBusters blog.

Appearing on Sunday's NBC Meet the Press, former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney told host David Gregory that former President Bill Clinton had "embarrassed the nation" while in office. However, of the three network morning shows on Monday, only CBS This Morning mentioned the political headline. ABC's Good Morning America ignored it and even NBC's Today skipped the scoop from it's own network.

On CBS This Morning, fill-in co-host Anthony Mason told viewers: "As Hillary Clinton decides her future, there are new signs that Republicans are targeting two Clintons, not one. The Republican National Committee created a website to sign up anti-Clinton voters. And 2012 GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney is taking a jab at former President Bill Clinton." A sound bite followed of Romney's remarks.
