[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] It is a new chapter in the open conflict between US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... and the leftist American media, but this time the chapter, or rather the book, that came out in the public eye, is from a leading journalist from one of the liberal American media’s castles: The New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... Jill Abramson, the former New York Times executive editor, intends to release her book with the intriguing title ’Merchants of Truth’, which has produced exciting paragraphs published by media outlets like Fox News.
In her book, Abramson says: "Though Baquet (the current executive editor of the newspaper) said publicly he didn’t want The Times to be the opposition party, his news pages were unmistakably anti-Trump."
"Some headlines contained raw opinion, as did some of the stories that were labeled as news analysis," she wrote.
This is, of course, a violation of a professional, ethical rule of journalism, which is the existence of a deep ’isthmus’ between opinion and news.
President Trump did not pass up this opportunity, and commended the former executive editor of The New York Times Jill Abramson, saying: "Former @NYTimes editor Jill Abramson rips paper’s "unmistakably anti-Trump" bias."
"Ms. Abramson is 100% correct. Horrible and totally dishonest reporting on almost everything they write," Trump continued. "Hence the term Fake News, Enemy of the People, and Opposition Party!"
PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS FALL The former New York Times pioneer responded to Trump on her Twitter account saying that she had always praised the newspaper, and that she was upset for journalistic professionalism, not for Trump and his policies, and that she praises the paper’s tough coverage of Trump but not through personal wars or ’trading’... this is in short.
This comes after the second media scandal in the US newspaper market, The Washington Post. A summary of it is that the articles of the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, may he rest in peace, against Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... were aided and directed by an American woman who heads a Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... i foundation in the US.
This also comes after the suspense-filled search for a new US law, cooked in Congress, to hold Qatari media in the US accountable on charges of promoting and covering terrorism!
The scandals come one after the next, and there is a great grinding in political conflict between Trump and the leftist base, and Qatar and Saudi Arabia, as well as Qatar’s biggest ally The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... . And in the bowels of these grinding mills, grains of morals and values are crushed, and professional standards fall.
The real picture is that world-class platforms with a long history like The New York Times and The Washington Post have been stripped of their professional cover, and appear bare in front of political quarrels.

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is planning to leave the Justice Department shortly after William Barr, the President's nominee for attorney general, is confirmed, according to a source familiar with his thinking.
The source said Rosenstein is not being forced out, and he has conveyed his thinking to the White House.
Barr's Senate confirmation hearing begins January 15, which means a confirmation vote at the earliest would occur in mid-February.
Rosenstein's plans were earlier reported by ABC News.
If confirmed, Barr would then oversee the special counsel's Russia investigation. Rosenstein has managed the investigation since it began in May 2017. Should be going to jail, with Comey, McCabe,...

DAG Rosenstein has been promising resignation for quite awhile. Is it true this time? The guy ought to be running a Swamp survivalist blog. Is he under investigation for his many entanglements.

Bingo! Followed by an abrupt case of Instant Amnesia™ and an inability to say anything other than "Fifth Amendment!Fifth Amendment! CRAAAWK!" like a man-sized parrot in a business suit.

There should be periodic memory tests for government workers in these kinds of positions. If they can't pass, then they're summarily out of a job. Congressional inquiries should count as a test.
CNN’s Jim Acosta: “Kellyanne, can you promise the president will tell the truth tonight?”
Conway: “Yes, Jim. Do you promise that you will? ... this is why I am one of the only people around here who even gives you the time of day…because you’re such a smartass most of the time”
Best part- Conway then told Acosta that “a lot of these people” don’t like him, while pointing to his peers.
Noting that NONE of the other reporters took issue. Non.
