CNN producer admits his own network is fake news - Page 4 - Politics version 7.0 -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

So basically they are all fake news? Sounds like anyone who has observational skills and values their own word. Oh yeah, Cheeto breath shouldn't talk pointing out that others are fake ****.

Trump does not say all are fake just the ones critical.

Aside from the actual content there's the tasty tidbit of you typing arrows to show who you're responding to.

There are 2 ways to respond when quoting a post. You can type below the quote, which generally means you're responding directly to the person, or type above the post, which generally means you're addressing the forum about the post, but in no version are arrows necessary.

You opted to type arrows.

I don't believe any conspiracy. I would like to know how killed him or do you not care about the pain his parents are feeling?

To be fair, the Clinton body count is awfully high. How many people do you know who've died under mysterious circumstances? But keep pushin' the Russia conspiracy all you want, the rest of the world has moved on.

Any evidence that Wikileaks has ever posted a retraction? If not, shut up about which you know nothing.

I'm surprised it took you this long to get to the "Clinton Body Count" derp.

There are still a few liberal journalists who have kept their heads during this media mental meltdown (emphasis mine):

"There are great benefits to be reaped by publishing alarmist claims about the Russian Threat and Trump’s connection to it. Stories that depict the Kremlin and Putin as villains and grave menaces are the ones that go most viral, produce the most traffic, generate the most professional benefits such as TV offers, along with online praise and commercial profit for those who disseminate them.

That’s why blatantly inane anti-Trump conspiracists and Russia conspiracies now command such a large audience: because there is a voracious appetite among anti-Trump internet and cable news viewers for stories, no matter how false, that they want to believe are true (and, conversely, expressing any skepticism about such stories results in widespread accusations that one is a Kremlin sympathizer or outright agent)." - Glenn Greenwald in The Intercept.

Great read.

I wonder if Trump really were a Russian agent working for Putin and news orgs were investigating him for that, would he a) just sit by idly and let them or b) do everything in his power to delegitimize and discredit them?

I also kind of wonder how he would respond to any official investigations? Like would he just sit there and say, 'investigate away, I have nothing to hide', or would he try and put a stop to it? Say by firing the FBI director, or by trying to discredit, or possibly even fire, the special prosecutor appointed by the DAG?

It's really hard to decide how he would act. Anyone have any thoughts?

Also for those who aren't aware I am a private investigator and have been for many years. A few months ago I reached out to some colleagues I have in Russia to look into this whole Trump/Russia connection, and I can tell you even after this short time they literally can't believe what they've been finding!

I think when the whole story comes out some of the posters on here will be very surprised. I may even put the first reports here on 2+2 to give you all an advance look. Probably in about 2 weeks or so.

Interesting that a centrist corporatist news organization firing people for falling short of journalistic standards is reason to attack the left, meanwhile POTUS is sending out his people to blantantly lie everyday. Became so obvious and overwhelming that they don't even allow their lies to be recorded anymore. They'll just lie about their lies now and claim their is no proof that they said whatever outrageous thing in the first place.

Tough fighting people who have zero morals or principles other than tax cuts for the rich and scapegoating minorities, but we have no choice but to take on the nihilistic right.

James O'Keefe is literally 0/lifetime at posting something honest. He has faced and plead guilty for charges related to his stunts. He has paid six figures in settlements for his stunts. Literally none of his projects have shown any wrongdoing or lead to any arrests beyond his own.

Imagine being dumb enough to fall for like the 9th stunt this dude has pulled after he was exposed as a fraud for literally every single thing he has done in his entire life?

It's incredible how easily duped the alt right morons are for an conspiracy theory here. This is why education is important.

Fox just cannot stop Foxing. Remember this?

The current president of the United States now personally profits off the many vacations he takes to his various resorts, but Fox is still exclusively concerned with the vacations of private citizen Barack Obama

Note that the headline of the article tries to hedge the story as "the left" criticizing him, but given that actual criticism from "the left" doesn't even appear in the article until paragraph 7 it's pretty transparent that Fox just haaaaates Obama enjoying himself:

Quote:

Ex-presidents, understandably and un-controversially, go on vacations immediately after leaving office. But the level of luxury the Obamas enjoy on their vacations is unprecedented for a modern-day president, say travel experts.

Since leaving office in late January, Obama has visited late actor Marlon Brando’s private island; the Four Seasons in Bali -- where rooms cost upward of $2,000 per night; a Palm Springs estate; Sir Richard Branson’s Necker Island; the exclusive Mid Pacific Country Club in Oahu; the 13th-century Borgo Finocchieto in Tuscany; and the Rising Sun, Hollywood studio mogul David Geffen’s private yacht.

"These are some of the most luxurious travel destinations in the world. Many of our clients spend tens of thousands of dollars or more to stay at these resorts, which cater to the most discriminating and demanding guests,” said Kendra Thornton, travel expert and owner of luxury travel agency Royal Travel. “For example, Necker Island has a nightly price tag of $80,000. Anyone who stays at these properties does so because they want the best of the best."

Fox News contacted the Borgo Finocchieto hotel. It’s actually not really a hotel, at least of the kind ordinary travelers come to expect. It’s a restored medieval hamlet with five villas and 22 bedrooms that can only be rented for a three-day minimum, in its entirety. Obama touched down at a nearby airport in a private jet escorted by six Eurofighter jets from the Italian Air Force. Presumably, the former president scored a deal on the stay since the Borgo Finocchieto is owned by one of his appointees, the former Italy Ambassador John Phillips.

LOL. Tell us more, thread participants, about CNN

Even The Daily Caller is unimpressed with that one, ffs

Quote:

The comments caught on tape aren’t terribly inconsistent with what Jones has said in the past. While Jones has criticized Trump’s lukewarm responses to Russian election interference, he has also gone after the Democrats for using Russia as an excuse for their 2016 failure.

But whatever site morons like Sushy flock to for their derp (somewhere even worse than The Daily Caller? jesus) must have thought that was a big one!
