Mainstream media forced to walk back Walker ‘criminal scheme’ narrative

After last week’s breathless headlines putting Gov. Scott Walker at the center of a nationwide “criminal scheme,” the mainstream and left-leaning media are being forced to step back from such sensational indictments.

The man doing the forcing is the special prosecutor who raised the specter of said conspiracy in a court document — part of 268 pages of previously sealed records dumped last week by order of a federal appeals court and embraced by John Doe prosecutors.

Maybe some lawsuits should be filed across the nation over this... Even if they are thrown out, it possibly might bring attention to how bad our media is.

Big deal, they did the damage they wanted to do.
LIVs got the narrative.

walk back

Is that kind of like the Michael Jackson moonwalk???

I love watching it -- especially when the talking heads are forced to do it.

[glennaro]

You bet they’ll do it again ... and again ... and again ...

[oldbrowser]

Years from now the “historians” will seize upon the original headlines as proof of the massive criminal organization that wrecked the country.

“Maybe some lawsuits should be filed across the nation over this”

Agree!!!

Growing up in South Louisiana, we called it “Crawfishing”, because crawfish backup into their hole when confronted.

When it comes to the scumbags working for Barry’s state controlled “media”, everybody is guilty until proven innocent. It’s a fascist Nazi thing.

Cue Gilda Radner saying Never Mind.

This, another example of why Rush Calls them the Drive By Media.

Cue Gilda Radner saying Never Mind.

It was funny and cute when Radner did her addle headed "Emily Litella" "Never mind" line

Not so when the liberal media excuse their deliberate lies to attack conservatives and Republicans.

Basically you have bought into the MSM narrative about Walker. You claimed on another thread that he was as dishonest as Hillary. You claim on another thread that there are no stories about the Walker scandal and that we would be blindsided unless you publicize it. Those are both patently false.

[conservativejoy]

I must have missed them on FR. I haven’t seen any stories on here about it, but there could have been before I started following again.

Then you should not claim in the other thread that "I don't like to be blindsided and have seen no other info on this at FR." You were basically lying by omission.
