“Words are important”

I agree, but the title of your vanity uses a double negative. Let’s not start doing mental gymnastics here.

The point of the poster's post, and its headline wording, is to refute the message of the few hours this afternoon from the MSM that "there was no political bias" in the IG report. The double-negative is important to the meaning.

Media: "There was was no political bias."

Poster: "The report did not say there was no political bias."

Too funny - using mental gymnastics to decry mental gymnastics - the double negative was clear as a bell as to meaning......and does not fit the general structure of a true double negative.
