So, he saw something on Fox and Friends and then saw something similar on twitter and immediately retweeted it without knowing what he's talking about more than likely.

Literally all those people reported it. There was an entire thread on it yesterday where OP had to leave the thread because it was proved all those outlets reported on it.

Are both true. Their reporting on it was little more than "and in other, unimportant news..." where they keyed in on a "small loan indiscretion" and also made sure to only include quotes from the attorney calling it a bigoted witch hunt by the right fringe.

Where's the wall to wall coverage?

If you can't see the hypocrisy then you are intellectually dishonest.

The president always seems to be a day behind the garbage blogs on the internet. This has already been thoroughly debunked anyhow.

Contradicts thread title.


Also should definitely spend more than "2 minutes" on it

they reported it in passing as a non story and then quickly moved on. We all know if this was a trump guy it would be non stop coverage of this

It's fair to say that the investigative journalism apparatus of MSM would be all over this if it involved Rs.

They did report on it, but it's been around for months and nobody but Daily Caller and the like are digging into it.

Trump isn't exactly going to articulate that, though

At some point everyone will realize these folks knowingly lie in order to advance their agenda.

They know it is being buried. This story is real. No speculation. Real. This isn't 9 months of trying to push a narrative and now, finally, something happened. Nope. Real. Immediate. And real.

If they were smart they would quit insulting everyone's intelligence if they want to win again, but they won't. They lie, and they are more than happy to lie.

Not really, they give a mention if it.

Play along Mcfly, if this story had Trump's name attached what kind of coverage would the Enemedia give it? Hmmmm?
