Funny that the dumbass readers “UNDERSTOOD” every little piece of sh*t fed to them by the New Yawk Slimes about President Trump. Must be a low I.Q. thing.
The US media = Pravda.
I wish someone would sit their collective asses down in front of a crowd and expose them for what they are.
Tax law is also complicated, but the Times had no issue reporting on it when Letitia James blabbed about Trump’s real estate valuation issues a few weeks ago.
“All the News That Fits the Agenda”..................
“If we don’t report it, it didn’t happen.”........................
“.....The revelations, according to national security and legal policy correspondent Charlie Savage, “tend to involve dense and obscure issues, so dissecting them requires asking readers to expend significant mental energy and time.”
....”
So they admit the New York Times publishes at the mental level of a comic book !
In their defense, The New York Slimes owns more federal judges than birds that poop [Rapin Bill appointee Jed Rakoff is just one example].
Those of us who grew up during Watergate will remember the large blocs of time devoted by the evening news broadcasts to showing detailed diagrams, literally showing faces with lines drawn between them, describing the complex webs of cause and effect that linked the various actors in the Watergate affair. Walter Cronkite's CBS Evening News absolutely doted on these diagrams, spending (in my memory) three-quarters or more of the night's broadcast time delving into the backgrounds of the various Watergate figures and into the connections between them, the CIA, the FBI, the Plumbers, the Committee to Re-Elect the President (which they delighted in referencing by its acronym CREEP).
I remember the line "... a man who's very name means...secrets," in a story about Donald Segretti.
CBS then carried on with their detailed analysis and explanation of the Watergate affair in its weekly news magazine 60 Minutes, which (if memory serves) sometimes devoted all three of its story segments to the Watergate story.
The major news magazines Time and Newsweek carried on with the expose. Newsweek (to which I had a subscription as a teenager, thanks to my parents) devoted something like 57 covers to Watergate, nearly sequentially, in 1973 and 1974 (the actual break-in occurred in 1972, but was hardly noticed at the time).
Lock her up she approved everything for the campaign to do.
They don’t want their readers to get the wrong idea...where “wrong idea” means anything they don’t want readers to know.
Durham certainly picked the optimum time to break this news ...
Friday evening of the SB weekend. Was it an attempt to bury this story? If so he may have given the liberal MSM a reason to ignore the story ... but it was picked up by the conservative news outlets FOX, NY Post, Breitbart, etc.. This Clinton spying on Trump story will be tamped down like the Hunter Biden laptop revelations but will still do devastating damage to Democrats, particularly Hillary. The fact the Hillary campaign triggered a two year $32 million Mueller investigation that came away with nothing, because there was nothing, will resonate.
NYT readership deserves to be insulted
The Fourth Estate is a Fifth Column.
Long-winded admission that they won’t cover anything they can’t spin as positive for Democrats and bad for Republicans.
The Old Grey Lady is quite the SNOB.
There are going to be reporters that cover this for sure, even if it requires a break from their parent organization. It’s the kind of story that can make or break a career.
...because readers might need to think about what they're consuming from a news outlet rather than just uncritically accepting what an outlet tells them at face value, according to Savage, means "raising the question of whether news outlets should even cover such claims."
Boy Howdy, I sure appreciate the New York Times saving me all that stress and brain damage from trying to dissect those dense and obscure issues.
