Arianna Huffington Flat Out Lies About Investment Firm's Economic Opinion of Debt Ceiling Deal
Newsbusters ^ | 8/7/11 | Noel Sheppard

Joining our growing list of media members willing to flat out lie on national television to advance their political agendas is Arianna Huffington who falsely claimed this week that securities firm JPMorgan warned its clients the debt ceiling agreement "is going to reduce our growth by a point-and-a-half."

Such was dishonestly said during a segment of CNN's "Fareed Zakaria GPS" aired Sunday (video follows with transcript and commentary):

FAREED ZAKARIA, HOST: Now, you look at this and you say - I heard you somewhere say, if Obama thought he was playing for independence by being the grown-up in the middle, it didn't work. Why?

ARIANNA HUFFINGTON: Right. Well, you see the CNN polls. You see over 60 percent of Independents are opposed to the deal. So if Obama thought that this was really his way of saying to Independents, I'm the grown-up in the room, I'm going to compromise, go with me, it's not working.

Puffington is incapable of telling the truth.

That is why she is loved and held in high esteem by the insane left wing liberals.

Never watch Fareed Zhakaria. He's proven himself to be a certified Democrat hack. He attacked the Republican party repeatedly for being unwilling to "be reasonable" during the negotiations and for adamantly opposing any tax increases.

When he isn't flacking for Democrats, he's flacking for Islamists.

I’ve always wondered how the Huff ever got to her position in life. She’s not terribly bright, and I didn’t think she came from a wealthy family.

She was merely a cover for her Gay husband, a “beard” in street parlance to make it seem he was hetero. She took the money and ran off when he outed, now she fancies herself as an intellectual.
