One reason media won't give up on "Russia collusion": it's the lifeblood of the NeverTrump grifters, who claim Trump's presidency is illegitimate and "true conservatives" need to vote Democrat and usher in socialism to "correct" it. DNC wants NeverTrump alive and well for 2020.
NeverTrump is more important to the Democrat strategy than ever after the Mueller report. The new narrative is "okay, Russia collusion was a bust but Trump is still illegitimate somehow." The media desperately needs "longtime Republicans" pushing that narrative right now.
More importantly, Democrats need to convince the middle class their party isn't stuffed with socialist loons who will trash the economy and drive America mad with social engineering if they win in 2020. That's becoming a very tough narrative to sell.
The best way to sand the rough socialist edges off Democrats in 2020 is to have "true conservatives" giving TV interviews and pumping out op-eds where they insist defeating Trump is all that matters, so defending our "norms" and "principles" requires voting Democrat or 3rd party.
So the last thing you're going to see is "reporters" asking these NeverTrump blowhards how they got Russia collusion so completely wrong, what happened to all their secret inside sources, etc. They'll lay low for a bit and return as unchallenged "expert" guests soon. /end
