Having worked at a media outlet, it's not particularly credible that they "ignored" it. Maybe some of them did.
But if the Washington Post and Buzzfeed (who are also, uh, media sources themselves) FOIA'ed 3200 pages of Fauci emails, there's a zero percent chance - zero - that someone from a bunch of orgs didn't at least take a look.
The reason it looks like they "ignored" it is because they didn't see a story to report. Which is how the process should work.
So if there were a Fauci email saying, "Yeah, we probably created covid, whoops" there's a zero percent chance you wouldn't see at least someone linking to the email in question. Do you see those links? There you go.
