NBC’s Kate Snow: Here’s why we didn’t publish that story on Avenatti’s 2nd witness until now
Hot Air ^ | October 27, 2018 | John Sexton

NBC’s Kate Snow put up a tweetstorm Saturday explaining why NBC belatedly published a piece Thursday revealing that a 2nd witness provided by Michael Avenatti to back up Swetnick’s account directly contradicted claims Avenatti made on her behalf. Snow claims she and NBC hadn’t finished vetting the article about this 2nd witness until the Kavanaugh confirmation was over and so decided to drop it as old news. That supposedly changed this week, when Sen. Chuck Grassley referred Avenatti and Swetnick to the DOJ for investigation. That referral, Snow claims, suddenly made the story newsworthy again.

Yeah right, they ran with the rape, being a drunk charges without “vetting” was no problem for them.
They still have not corrected all the lies told by them and that little girl voice liar or told the background of her lawyer who owes millions.

Excluding exculpatory information is the same MO as when the FBI applies for a FISA warrant.

It’s called “selective reporting” in the journalism trade.

Evidence showing Kavenaugh is innocent and that charges against him were made up is “old news”. Evidence that one of his main accusers lied under oath is “old news”.

NBC; the network that is a press-release agency for anything Avenatti spouts is suddenly worried about vetting stories? Riiight.

The brilliant Dr. Ford didn’t know what “exculpatory” means. I guess NBC doesn’t either.

So fake. They don’t vet anything. If it’s negative they push it and if it’s exculpatory they shelve it.

that little girl voice liar

Are you sure you are not mixing Ford with Swetnick? Ford is the one with the little girl voice when testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee. As far as I know this is the only time we ever heard Julie Swetnick speak. I do not hear that little girl voice when she speaks. Now in complete honesty I admit that I did not listen to the entire interview she had with MSNBC's Kate Snow.
