My point was that I am disinclined to give RS the benefit of the doubt in this dust up. There is nothing in their past behavior that warrants it.
I remember when Rollingstone started out they put a lot of leftist politics in with their music articles. I’ll bet, like me, most RS readers were only or mostly interested in the music articles. I was a lot more liberal then than now, but even then it was a pain to try and wade through the political screeds.
Who talks in terms of “cycles”?
Ok...
Well, hey now, I am in good company. LOL
I wasn’t quick to side with RS, I went looking for verification (or lack thereof) of what RS reported that Trump said. And found Trump himself saying that he probably said what RS said he said...
Too late, Trump. You own it.
Very true.
Trump didn’t confirm the wuote per se, just in a more vague and general sense.
Again, my point is that RS hasn’t earned credibility. They have earned the opposite.
‘Ok...’
We could always go with the alternative. Namely, that radical ‘gay’ leftist Jann Wenner has an impeachable history of integrity and fairness, and that in any case where he and Trump are in dispute, Wenner is to be assumed right and Trump wrong.
