Jeffrey Epstein and Brett Kavanaugh, for ABC News, a tale of double standards

Before we get into the release by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas of that video starring “Good Morning America” co-host Amy Robach and her story that ABC spiked her report about the late serial sex predator Jeffrey Epstein, let’s do something else first.

Let’s remember what ABC, NBC and other media did to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearing just a year ago, destroying his reputation, smearing him without evidence because he wasn’t on their political team.

The unctuous and now discredited lawyer Michael Avenatti was constantly on TV, welcomed on ABC, with his lips and tongue wet and malicious with gossip.

I thought Avenatti was going to be the Dem's 2020 presidential candidate.

I would think that the unbalanced news coverage would be scrutinized under campaign contribution laws. Major media engages in opposition research against Republicans and major media engages in propaganda support in favor of Democrats. The money spent by major media in efforts to influence elections is vast. There are laws against that stuff.

Bottom line: fake news organizations have forfeited their 1st Amendment rights.

I thought Avenatti was going to be the Dem's 2020 presidential candidate.

Why not? He's about as principled as the rest of the Democrat field.

I didn’t realize it was possible to forfeit one’s Constitutional rights. Pray that the Left does not start talking about people can forfeit their 2nd Amendment rights.

ABC - the most corrupt News Network... worse than NBC... worse than CNN.

Who is the John Kass @ the Chicago Tribune?

I am surprised that they would be criticizing other media whores.

[El Laton Caliente]

What do you think red flag laws are about?

Even seeing the names of Brett Kavanaugh and Jeffrey Epstein in the same sentence/headline is a disgrace. Regardless of the story the headline was probably done intentionally for the “I only read the headline” crowd.
