Since the article is mainly about the media then it’s a safe bet I’m talking about Rolling Stone

BTW - there are no “yes buts” here - a majority of the mainstream media regularly engaged in partisan malpractice in this debacle

Yeah I will obsess about this. Unlike you, I actually give a **** about democratic norms. There are people who turn the other cheek and say, "meh," and allow good things to die. And there are others who give a damn.

Y'all have become so jaded and gas-lighted by the last two years that you think any of this is normal.

"He obstructed justice, but meh, at least he didn't collude. It's all good"

In a strong democracy that's not good.
It cannot be released in its entirety due to protecting witnesses and other things. Hopefully, we get a lot of it released. We do know collusion is a big fat triple deluxe Nothing burger.

Right. So how many non-Taibbi articles from RS have I posted you schmuck? Maybe one or two by Hastings? Maybe none at all. Sorry your economic sensibilities were hurt back then. :lol:

We already know that you’re OK with a little bit of journalistic malfeasance... as long as it isn’t full bore like InfoWars (even they occasionally report a fact or two). You’ve defended RS and even RT here before

Just one or two manufactured stories is OK as long as the editorial board doesn’t go TOO overboard with it

I guess I have a higher bar than that

Is just a little police corruption OK?

How about a little bit of medical degree fraud?

Democracy dies in darkness, klam

Nice dodge. I will grant you RT (something you’d never do) but again, point out some RS articles I linked that were incorrect. There might actually be some but few and far between...so happy hunting. :thumb:

You guys that think the summary Barr sent to Congress yesterday put this to rest are sadly mistaken. And that's because for some reason Mueller decided not to reach a conclusion on obstruction of justice then the guy who as a private citizen wrote an op ed on it not being possible for a President to commit obstruction of justice made the call.

I don't think there was any good way out once Muller decided not to make the call. If Barr makes the call the questions are obvious. If he declines to make the call and refers it to Congress the questions are obvious. But either way the fact that Mueller didn't make a call means this thing is a LONG way from dead.

But your posts suggest otherwise. You don't follow democratic norms.

And like Cid said, there are people that know better than you about this. YOu should perhaps listen to them.


Hey, Trip, do you know who doesn't listen to the experts and people with more experience than himself?

This.

The news of no indictments on Russian collusion also solidified jellybelly's bust on the CS.com Mount Rushmore of Retard.

All I said was that Taibbi jumped in to throw a little shade at the media (true), that he's your dude (true), and that if anyone ought to know about media shenanigans, it would be a guy who has the misfortune of working at an outlet that nuked its own credibility (TRUE).

Does that look a little better or are you still triggad?
