CNN’s “excuse” is that they are just reporting what someone ELSE has claimed.
/////////////////////////////////////
C’mon. Journalist integrity of their code of ethics states they can’t just print or say on the air “Joe Smith, the prominent banker is secretly a street drug user who chases young girls according a source who wishes to remain anonymous.” No defense.
We could say we heard that several people knew Hillary destroyed Rose Law Firm records, took money-laundered foundation bribes to change State Dept. policies for foreign entities, and worked with illegally obtained surveillance and IRS records to blackmail enemies. All that was true but none stuck thanks to the media.
So far.
Now they suddenly trust any internet source they see? BS
Buzzfeed is reporting that Joe Smith...
“Maxine Waters says ‘Trump has...’”
“Find someone who says what you legally cannot claim yourself.”
Buzzfeed is a glorified clickbait blog being steered by an ex- from Pollutico.
It is partisan trash and unworthy of discussion in the general town square.
