Just like the Democrat running for governor in Florida whose campaign calls White People, "crackers".

While I am sure they do not get the credit of a slick news show like 60 Minutes, 20/20 and so forth, they seem to essentially do the same type of undercover expose that the other shows do.
The primary difference seems to be that they do not limit themselves to only certain targets, and instead target groups those shows would never touch.
Now here is a very serious question for everyone, left or right of the ideological spectrum.
Assuming at least 51% of their investigate shows expose liberal/leftist groups being unscrupulous, why do some people on the left dismiss the information they uncover.
For example, lets say I am a Democrat, but want my party to win the hearts and minds of potential voters based on the issues.
However, if I see a particular candidate is posing as something they are not, just to get elected, why would I still respect them?
If their campaign is doing something wrong, why wouldn't I want that to be exposed?
In theory I should not be so partisan to want only bad guys in the other party to be exposed, but the ones in my own party to get elected.
Put another way, assuming I am not a win at all cost type of person, why wouldn't I want the bad eggs in my party exposed, to in theory make my party that much better?
So lets reverse engineer this. Say I am a Republican and want candidate X to win. But a group comes along and does an expose on a illegal pay for play deal between them and an insurance agency. Why would I attack the group for exposing a corrupt person that I had assumed was a good candidate, only to find out differently?
Since this video exposes what is purported to be a not so ethical person, what would make those who wanted to vote for them not reconsider?
