The heading on their page: "Washington Post: Trump shared classified info to Russians"

President Donald Trump shared highly classified information with the Russian foreign minister and Russian ambassador to the US in a White House meeting last week, according to The Washington Post.

So they post from another source, not their own...

McMaster says: "At no time were intelligence sources or methods discussed and the President did not disclose any military operations that weren't already publicly known," he said. "I was in the room. It didn't happen."

Tillerson said nothing happened.

Dina Powell, White House deputy national security adviser for strategy, who also attended the meeting, said: "This story is false. The President only discussed the common threats that both countries faced,"

Way down in the article, CNN posts:
"CNN has yet to confirm the details of The Washington Post report."

How lame is that, they post FULL FRONT PAGE bs that another bs paper posted and have no proof. Trump and associated should not call on CNN reporters again, that is bs.

They know that no one cares about retractions and the first story out is the one that sticks and formulates further mindsets.

This is why the lib media has zero credibility. The lib media will be the Trump's main target during the next election.

"Churnalism"

One story from one outlet, based on an anonymous source gets rereported by everyone, all week until one person's lie becomes truth.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Donald Trump revealed highly classified information about Islamic State militants to Russian officials during a meeting last week, The Washington Post reported Monday, prompting strong condemnation from both Democrats and Republicans.

Three White House officials who were in the May 10 meeting strongly denounced the story, saying no intelligence sources and methods were discussed - but they didn't deny that classified information was disclosed.

Citing current and former U.S. officials, the Post said Trump shared details about an Islamic State terror threat related to the use of laptop computers on aircraft with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak.


From AP. Note paragraph 2.

Why is the ap reporting on an unverified and already debunked WaPo story, though? And saved the denouncement for p2, which anyone whose taken a journalism 101 class knows never gets read.

Wierd, right?

The story now specifically says that the main points of the WaPo story have been confirmed by their own sources. Maybe that wasn't there when you read it, but still, they never lied.

You'll notice he never denies that the president shared classified information.
