Full headline: Media slowly figuring out that getting into bed with anti-Trump smear merchant Michael Wolff was maybe a bad idea

"was maybe a bad idea "

But cheap gossip is basically all they know. If they couldn't lie and slander, what else would they do?

This is the genius of Trump; people lose their minds and their composure because of their anger towards him.

Good thing Hillary associated herself with it at the Grammys.

It goes to show how far we've fallen. Even in 2004, Dan Rather, one of the most powerful on-screen personalities in the history of TV journalism, almost instantly lost his job over this kind of crap. In 2018, it's just part of the "resistance."

Who knew we would be looking back at Bush's presidency only a decade later and thinking he had it easy with the media.

A lot of the stuff did read as – did feel true."...There’s "a lot of it that reads true, that feels true,” she added.

Feelings..............nothing more than feelings............

It's the journalistic version of the "walk of shame".

The next morning when you wake and see the sleazeball in bed beside you, and can't get out of there fast enough.

Used to be "fake but accurate" was good enough, at least marginally. Now it's just FAKE and that's definitely not good enough.

I predict Wolfe's book will skip the discount rack and go straight to the dumpster.

What ought to be applauded and praised is God.

The modern conservative movement often acts like it knows everything important there is to know about God. But no, it doesn’t. It knows very little about how far God’s heart can go. The modern left burgeoned as much as it did because it promised to fill the heart hole, while conservatives were busy sounding like the so called holy men in the parable of the good Samaritan. Now conservatives weren’t utter curmudgeons. They did donate more to charities. But it still was largely as unto man rather than as unto God. To be spilled out and wasted for God wasn’t in many of their venaculars.

Let’s all unpinch our souls and give God glory when He moves, even a little. Encourage all such motions as this, and we will see more. When Donald Trump hailed God to bless America the other day, let it not be in vain. He is still loving his enemies even while calling them to account.

Too little, too late Crazy Mika...her hatred, lies, insanity and bias was on display long before the Wolff book.

Does this mean that Hillary doesn’t win a grammy for repeating the lies in his book?

If Michael Wolffe realy wants to become famous he should start dishing dirt on the Obamas. The MSM will eat that stuff up! LOL!
