This time around, they tried to use the Steele Dossiere—a whole collection of fakery—to bring down Trump. Something no one could look at. It was all bogus FISA warrants and the media lapping up and regurgitating whatever the DOJ cabal leaked to them. Mere firing was too good for that bunch.

That is a funny DU post. I see that no one over there was in any hurry—at all—to uncover the shenanigans of their friends in the media. They still aren’t, with the quackery exhibited in the Steele Dossiere and the glee that media repeats what the fraudsters tell them.

I too remember that post in real time. I was not watching the broadcast but on FR reading about it. When Buckhead posted his info I was dumbstruck - how could they be so stupid?

And the rest is history.

“Did we ever learn the identity of Buckhead? Does he still post? When was his last post?”

I had a sore loser man t-shirtnwith the arching teardrop.

Wore it to the Tampa airport to board a flight.

The black gal running security, back when a “random second screening” would take place, grabbed me out of line for the. extra search.

We were all lined up after the metal detector and I watched eyes as she scanned down the line, got to me, her eyes dropped to my tshirt, went back up to my face, and she pointed her index finger at me them to the side as she selected me based upon my Sore Loserman tshirt she hated.

In those days Rather was the exception. Now it is the rule. MSM’s motto should be, “Fake and Inaccurate”.

You're right... any ideas on why the press deteriorated so quickly?

Was it Buckhead, I seem to recall it was a name kind of like “christian” or something that can be (and was) confused with a females name.

Don’t know if accurate:

“The initial analysis appeared in posts by ‘Buckhead’, a username of Harry W. MacDougald, an Atlanta attorney who had worked for conservative groups such as the Federalist Society and the Southeastern Legal Foundation, and who had helped draft the petition to the Arkansas Supreme Court for the disbarment of President Bill Clinton.[57][58]

That is correct. Buckhead and TackerKC were “outed” by the media.

The media will do research, on occasion.

No, there were plenty then and well before Rather. He was just stupid enough to get caught.
