Is it? It's just horrible when the POTUS you don't like won't give access to hacks that work for his political rivals, isn't it?
So,
where was your indignation at the IRS being used to harass their political enemies? Something that was not revealed until after the election, even though the IG was required by law to inform congress within 7 days.
How about Harry Reid? You know, the lying shit-bag Democrat leader in the Senate.
He lied about Romney just before the election in 2012 -
intentionally. It's proven, and Reid bragged about it.
But excuse me, do tell me about the injustices of lefty lying press not having access.

During the summer of 2012,
Reid said during an interview with The Huffington Post that he had received information from an unidentified investor in Bain Capital that presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney did not pay any taxes for 10 years.
[62] The accusation was repeated on the Senate floor by Reid on August 2, 2012.
[63][64] According to CBS News, Romney stated, "Let me also say, categorically, I have paid taxes every year -- and a lot of taxes. So Harry is simply wrong."
PolitiFact.com's Truth-O-Meter rated the accusation as "Pants on Fire!"[65] The Washington Post's Fact Checker gave it "Four Pinnocchios".[66] CBS reported that Romney had submitted 23 years of tax returns to the
John McCain campaign in 2008, when he was being vetted for the vice presidential nomination. McCain said, "[n]othing in these tax returns showed that he did not pay taxes."
[67] After the election, Reid called the attack "one of the best things I've ever done".[66]
Lets we forget @ the IRS - planting questions in a congressional testimony, really :
"In early May 2013, the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration released an audit report confirming that the IRS used inappropriate criteria to identify potential political cases, including organizations with Tea Party in their names.
[7]
On May 10, in advance of the public release of the audit findings, Director of the IRS Exempt Organizations division
Lois Lerner answered what was later revealed to be a planted question by stating that the IRS was "apologetic" for what she termed "absolutely inappropriate" actions.[71] (Lerner's superior, then-Acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller, later testified to Congress that he had discussed with Lerner how she was to make the revelation and apology using a planted question at a meeting of the
American Bar Association rather than during an appearance two days earlier before the House Ways & Means Committee in Congress.)
[72] She asserted that the extra scrutiny had not been centrally planned and had been done by lower-level "front line people" in the Cincinnati office.
[73] Media reports soon revealed that IRS officials in two other regional offices had also been involved in scrutinizing conservative groups and that selected applicants said that they had been told their applications were being overseen by a task force in Washington, D.C.[38] The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration report showed that Lerner herself had been informed of the affair at a meeting that she had attended on June 29, 2011.

Do you realize that "Project Veritas" is James O'Keefe's organization? James O'Keefe is a professional right-wing hack and convicted criminal who has a long history of creating fraudulent videos to attack the left. Every time he's been legally compelled to produce the full, unedited video of his stories, he's been exposed as a liar. In short, don't believe everything you see on YouTube. Most of it is crap. And don't believe anything from James O'Keefe. He lies for a living.
