Zero Hedge/The Automatic Earth blog: CIA Crushes CNN's Latest Trump-Russia Conspiracy Theory
It’s undoubtedly better to leave some stories alone, and this may be one of them. Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov perhaps put it best when he called it “pulp fiction” (and what’s more American than that?). But this one is so exemplary of how the news is cooked up for you these days, let’s have a go anyway.
What makes this story so ideal for its purpose is that it involves intelligence and state secrets, so the news outlet that runs it doesn’t have to prove a thing; it can simply say it’s not authorized to divulge what it doesn’t write, while hinting it does know. Plus, it can use any number of covert sources.

WNU Editor: How the media has been covering this story has truly been an eye-opener. CNN ran with a story quoting one source who stated that the reason why this Russian spy was extradited to the U.S. was because the intelligence community did not trust President Trump. This story was then picked-up by virtually every news network in the world. What we have learned since yesterday is that this claim is bogus. The planning for the extradition of this spy was happening before Donald Trump was even President. But even now (I am watching CTV News in Canada), there is a panel discussing this story and the reasons why the intel community does not trust President Trump. Can anyone say Fake News. The above Zero Hedge post is the best summary that I have read so far on this story.
Fact:
ReplyDeleteCNN made this claim
fact: this site denied the story iun its entirety because not verified by other places.
fact: NY Times verified the story and got it right
fact: right of center places, ie Fox et al try to badmouth CNN etc and instead ignore central facf that PUTIN ORDERED ELECCTORAL INTEFERENCE IN AMERICA
FACT; GOP KNOWS FROM INTEL OF RUSSIAN INVOLVMENT IN OUR ELECTIONS BUT REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT
FACT: THIS SITE TOO REFUSES TO FACE UP TO WHAT RUSSIA IS DOING AND INSTEAD BADMOUTHS CNN...
the ultimate absurdity...no intel from sources!

This is so easily fixed, but our Politicians like the fact that news organizations can present stories like this. However, CNN should have its license revoked!

ReplyDeleteAs soon as I saw the headline and it was from CNN, I automatically questioned it's veracity and ignored the story.
Once upon a time, those three letters were top notch. How the mighty have fallen.
I use to love CNN. CNN's honest journalism RIP.

Hey fredo, please tell me why you consider "GOP knowledge of russian interference in US elections" concerning? Were the democrats not aware of it? Russia has been interfering in US elections since it was the Soviet Union. It is not news to anyone with a brain. Just as we attempt to interfere in their elections. Is this not a story about one of our spies? International espionage is nothing new. Donald Trump is not a plant. Please stop letting the leftist controlled media's hysteria drive you crazy.
