Fake news! How liberal commentators blindly dedicated HOURS to baseless claims that Trump colluded with Russians
2023-05-17
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Liberal commentators dedicated hours to the claims Trump colluded with Russia

  • John Durham's long-awaited report on Monday was yet another blow to proponents of the theory

  • Durham said there was no 'factual evidence' to support the FBI's drawn-out probe into the claims

#12  You will see more reform once Tucker reclaims his audience. The current media is hollowed out like a piñata before the trip to the Walmart for suitable glucose laden fodder.

#10  Further on that last point - give the Dems a taste of their own medicine. You like a weaponized Federal government? How's my ass taste, dickheads?

#9  Not sure how this could be enforced but this needs to be looked at.

I'd go with heavy FCC fines myself.

#7  Doctors get sued for malpractice. Lawyers and "journalists," not so much.

#6  All news media outlets need to be reformed. Severe financial punishment must be done for reporting incorrect info or not reporting at all. Also to be clear on what is news and what is commentary, correcting contributors that lie immediately not allowing false statements to stand. Not sure how this could be enforced but this needs to be looked at.
Trump's interview on CNN I hope opened the eyes of many Democrats that only watch CNN for news. It's possible that we might not be so divided if they got all the news.

#3  Remember, this wasn't a case of "there was smoke, so we yelled fire, even if mistakenly." This was "OK, guys, you know what to do when Brennan turns on the smoke machine."

#2  /\ I don't think it was done 'blindly'.

No, this was a well thought out, multi-phased, propaganda and deception operation.
