The inherent issue isn't Buzzfeed's boldfaced, fake journalism of Trump obstruction

It's the fact the mainstream media PLASTERED this story over the airwaves for hours, nearly a full day, and only once the story started falling apart did they question the source.
THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED.
ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, et al, beleive that they can push this obvious fake news because another outlet reported it. The story had NOTHING of substance to back up the claim, yet was run as the gospel truth. THIS IS WHY THEY ARE LABELED FAKE NEWS. They run stories that aren't substantiated.
Americans have every right to distrust the media, and all of our politicians. They havent earned our trust.
To belittle those with a brain that distrust the source of any story is wrong and disgusting.

Journalism is dead across all parties. That's been a fact for a while now.

The media completely went past the point of no return yesterday
The media is done. It’s over.

Naw man this is the true problem.

Media consumers aren’t as savvy as we’d like them to be, and just because something is technically accurate and qualified doesn’t make it good. People skip right over those caveats, and if they want to believe these reports, they treat them like gospel.

I don’t believe real investigative journalism is dead but it has become much harder to find due to the shadow banning or burying of legitimate websites on the internet.

Mueller's team literally said the report was "not accurate"

that's right.
Fox does it routinely.
First the wall street journal publishes fake news propaganda.
Then fox refers to it all day.
TD POSTS AS FACT.
By dinner the story has holes in it. Neither fox nor TD posters ever admit it was bogus even after the facts are established.
Get over your indignation.
Fox is the all time champ of fakest news

What a freaking dumbass
I guarantee you thought the Buzzfeed story was legit...or is was "too big and serious not to be true"
Posted on 1/19/19 at 1:57 pm to KosmoCramer
If they had it all to do over again, they would do it exactly how they did yesterday. They enjoy belittling and spreading falsehoods about Trump. They don’t care that it wasn’t true.
In short, they have no shame.

But at least these MSM outlets are going to make up for it by spending an entire day apologizing and issuing attractions on the original story, right?
I wonder how often the source behind stories like this Buzzfeed's exclusive is actually a CNN reporter who wanted Buzzfeed to break the phony story? That way they can all pile on and still maintain some semblance of credibility, since it was another outlet that broke it.

Can you provide an example of Fox reporting a fake impeachable offense as news?

I don't watch the MSM...including FOX.
However, since you put it our there, provide examples and links please.

Exactly what formula are using to quantify this?

Link to the WSJ routinely publishing fake news? If you can't link at least 10 stories you are full of shite.
We all know there's no chance you are about to link 10 debunked WSJ stories. Why are you such a fraud Celtic?
