May if “if true” wasn’t the throwaway disclaimer for their shite product then they would get called out less

I'd have to imagine that the number of people working in the media now far surpasses what it was in the days before the internet

They absolutely have to have a lot more manpower and resources available than ever

Maybe they should lean the importance of getting things right before being the first to speak on something

HIGH degree of difficulty on this spin job.

They just dont care about getting it right

Even in being completely and utterly wrong they are attempting to spin it to a win for them

It is insane

The Press isn’t the enemy of the people. It’s made certain people enemies.

The idea that there is a "Trump internet" out there is also silly

I'd have to imagine there are plenty of people disappointed in the media over this issue that aren't big Trump supporters

Hell I'm disappointed in myself for getting it wrong and I'm just some a-hole on a message board that was a 6 pack deep by the time I saw the first video

We suck at reporting truth and it's Trump internet supporters fault

How can media like this even have any credibility anymore?

If we Trump supporters owned the internet, couldn't we just blacklist the Washington Compost and their ilk?

I'm just glad I was too busy to comment on the initial story as it broke. I probably would have had to walk some shite back, too.
