‘The media IS the enemy.’ @AG_Conservative takes NBC’s hit piece on Kavanaugh ‘texting’ about Ramirez APART
“Kavanaugh appeared to be saying he heard of the charges after they appeared in The New Yorker in September.”
“appears to be saying” is conflated with “said”. This author, New York Magazine, and anyone who defends this article is twisting words to make them “appear” to mean something other than what was said. That’s not the basis for a perjury charge. The obvious explanation was that some of Kavanagh’s friends were contacted by Ronan Farrow who wrote the New Yorker story, and they gave Kavanaugh a “heads up”, which is legal and appropriate. Anyone who wouldn’t alert a friend to an upcoming false smear attack is not a friend. He says “in the period since then, the New Yorker story”, not in period since the PUBLICATION OF of the New Yorker story. It’s easy to add a word or two to a statement and then magically the true statement becomes a lie.
