Almost all media pushes the anti Trump narrative because it sells. The media isn't interested in "truth" or news just selling ads. They are no different than those tabloid newspapers you see in the grocery store. At least those tabloids are honest with their product. The media acts like they are the arbiters of truth and justice...give me a break.

Meanwhile, we've got media desperately trying to backtrack from the Jussie Smollett thing. But hey, we've got Drumpf Is Done #194 with this whole Michael Cohen obstruction nonsense. I'm sure... /yawn... this is the thing that will take him down for good.

Most people stop short of risking prison by filing a false police report to prove a point, so there is no reason to "backtrack" on Smollett, nor should anyone feel bad about believing him if it turns out to be a false report.

People believe all sorts of stupid things. That's not necessarily the problem. The problem is reporting and repeating it as if it's absolute truth without a shred of evidence to back it up.

There's a morning talk show that I listen to on my way to work. It's hosted by a liberal and conservative team who are pretty hard-line in their views. The liberal didn't believe Smollett for a second. It's sad that people like Spartacus keep falling for it hook, line, and sinker and use it as a campaign issue, only saying that they'll reserve judgment and wait for further evidence after it's clear to everyone else that they've been played.

I don't know how anyone can listen to talk radio tbh. And I think Spartacus would have just killed them all.

And like I said once you file a police report, you cross over into the real world, if it turns out to be fake from the start he is going to be charged. So there was no reason to believe any person would willingly file a false police report.

Pretty much sums it up...an filthy old man bitching about the rich while being rich. All while laughing all the way to the bank.

Some people go to great lengths to give credibility to a lie. Being a victim brings attention and, in his line of work especially, attention brings opportunity. He might have thought that just because there is no proof of an alleged crime, there is likewise no proof of a lie. It's a win-win in theory. Heaven knows the media doesn't care about proof of right-wing offenses. It's just too bad that the police don't like wasting their time and resources on red herrings.

It may be win-win in theory but it seems to be a lose-lose in practice.

It isn't just right wing offenses, its splashy attention getting headlines. Remember the balloon boy?

How many people in just the last 5 or so years have been falsely accused of violent sexual crimes? It seems to be a scorned womans go to attack method.

CNN reports Barr is about to anounce the end of the Mueller probe.

Could an adult finally be incharge of the AG? How much liberal salt should we prepare for?

Nope, we still have 2 more years of Trump being in charge of the AG, so no adults.

Its not surprising you have no idea how infrequently an intentionally false police report gets filed, and how less frequently no punishment is handed out for it.

I don't think "Thou shalt not smirk" is a commandment, Chanti.

And you can rail on Christians all you want, but it's not like liberals are any better at practicing what they preach.

Liberals don't need God they worship the government. Their dream is to take away everything from the people and make the government do it.
