In case you didn’t already know, you cannot rely on the fake news media for your facts and information on anything regarding politics these days. The mainstream media has become the fake news media because it is now the propaganda arm for the Democratic Party, obsessed with taking down the current administration by whatever means possible. Facts be damned!

With former FBI Director James Comey’s much anticipated testimony in front of Congress now behind us, we are all sifting through what he said and what it all meant. One of the big takeaways for me was Comey slamming The New York Times and CNN in particular for their irresponsible reporting since Mr. Trump became president.

Mr. Comey confirmed that a February 14 story by The New York Times was “almost entirely wrong.” The headline was “Trump Campaign Aides Had Repeated Contacts With Russian Intelligence.” The constant posting of stories with one or two anonymous intelligence sources is more than irresponsible reporting, it is blatantly misrepresenting the facts or spinning reality to suit one’s agenda. Our media needs to be held to a higher standard lest we become North Korea listening to the approved government narrative. Solid reporting involves writing about actual events with real significance corroborated by multiple reputable sources who are willing to identify themselves.

He knew they were telling fake news, and didn’t correct them.

He could have leaked anything, but he didn’t leak that. He leaked stuff to make Trump look bad, knowing that the other stuff was fake.

NYT and Comey were in bed together. Comey admitted he leaked to them. I think they stiffed him for a lot of $$$$$$$.

Meanwhile Comey was telling many other lies:

"Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump Despite so many false statements and lies, total and complete vindication...and WOW, Comey is a leaker! 4:10 AM - 9 Jun 2017 27,643 27,643 Retweets 89,714"
