Why I Tipped off BuzzFeed to the Biggest Story of the Year [John Conyers]
Medium ^ | 11/20/17 | Mike Cernovich

Posted on 11/20/2017 7:08:47 PM PST by Bodleian_Girl

Congressman John Conyers Jr is a serial sexual predator, and I gave the story to BuzzFeed rather than break it myself.

“Pull over, I’m about to throw up.” My wife was driving our SUV as I occupied our daughter Cyra while cruising in the back. I had just given away the biggest story of the year, and the biggest story of my career, to BuzzFeed. I couldn’t relax and couldn’t sleep, because a story of this magnitude is a career making even at the highest levels of journalism.

Well…Why did I do it?

Pretty sure Mike Cernovich is way past blogger status at this point.

But love me some Humblegunner rants.

Humble gunner is always moaning and griping about something. I actually think the gunner is an old women who hasn’t been touched in 30 years.

NOT “the biggest story of the year”. Unless it’s about Cernovich’s big head. That is a big story.

Cernovich has broke some of the fakest news too, like Kelly and McMaster drugging Trump and holding him hostage without his phone while they stage a coup.

That was pure brain dead stupid.

You’d think some news agencies would be on this like white on rice.

More than just Conyers, Ryan covered it up. Say goodbye, Paulie.

I just checked Buzzfeed. Did a search on "conyers" and came up with nada.

So, they're spiking the story? Counting it as not credible? Covering it up?

What am I missing?

Wouldn't this be great if it takes Paul Ryan out?

It’s sad that seemingly most Freepers don’t get Cernovich or Twitter or Molyneux or any of the new media. Combining forces with them would form an unstoppable team.

Jake “the fake” Tapper on twitter is now linking to it on Buzzfeed.

He was raised in a Christian family but I am not sure where’s he’s at with faith right now.

I think Pizzagate shook him and made him start thinking about God again. I hope so.
