Former Trump girlfriend hits back at 'upsetting' NYT cover story
Politico ^ | May 16, 2016 | Nick Gass

Posted on 05/16/2016 6:17:34 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

The New York Times' article published Saturday with the headline "Crossing the Line: How Donald Trump Behaved With Women in Private" begins with an anecdote from a woman named Rowanne Brewer Lane, who as a 26-year-old model was asked by the businessman to put on a swimsuit during their first meeting at a Mar-a-Lago pool party.

"But the 1990 episode at Mar-a-Lago that Ms. Brewer Lane described was different: a debasing face-to-face encounter between Mr. Trump and a young woman he hardly knew. This is the private treatment of some women by Mr. Trump, the up-close and more intimate encounters," the Times wrote.

On Monday morning, Brewer Lane appeared on "Fox & Friends" to dispute the Times' framing of her account.

"Actually, it was very upsetting. I was not happy to read it at all," Brewer Lane said. "Well, because The New York Times told us several times that they would make sure that my story that I was telling came across. They promised several times that they would do it accurately. They told me several times and my manager several times that it would not be a hit piece and that my story would come across the way that I was telling it and honestly, and it absolutely was not."

Asked what the reporters got wrong, Brewer Lane said they took her quotes and "put a negative connotation on it."

"They spun it to where it appeared negative. I did not have a negative experience with Donald Trump, and I don't appreciate them making it look like that I was saying that it was a negative experience because it was not," Brewer Lane said.

Co-host Ainsley Earhardt asked to clarify if Brewer Lane knew him well and that they dated for several months.

"That's correct. Yes, and he was never -- he never made me feel like I was being demeaned in any way. He never offended me in any way. He was very gracious. I saw him around all types of people, all types of women. He was very kind, thoughtful, generous, you know. He was a gentleman," Brewer said.

Read the opening line of the story, "Donald J. Trump had barely met Rowanne Brewer Lane when he asked her to change out of her clothes," Brewer Lane was asked whether that was true or false. False, she said.

Only a blithering, drooling idiot would believe anything the Slimes and WaPo prints about Trump.

The New York Times is horribly biased and saw fit to explore and savage the sex life and personal relationships of Donald Trump. It is now fitting and appropriate for a conservative paper or network to explore the sexual history of Hillary Clinton.

The New York Times has been a full out propaganda outfit for the left for decades.

Now that there is a bit of alternate media, we are finding out how political they have been all along.

They must sell a lot of papers to blithering idiots.

I only read the NYT once. When I discovered they didn’t have a comics section, I decided that wasn’t the paper for me. Later, when I got out of high school, I also realized what a useless liberal rag it was.

[Why would anyone trust the NY Times?]

The national Enquirer, with Ted’s sleazy affairs, is more trust-worthy than the NYT.

The sexual history of Empress Cankles may be interesting to the Kardashian-loving crowd, but it’s the already-reported lies that she’s told and her “Tammy Wynette stand-by-your-man” stupidity that has already lost most of the electorate for her.

If you want to hit below the belt and stay near the sexual history of the Clintons (not just Hitlery), just keep slamming her “strong woman feminism” by repeating that she rode her husband’s coattails into power, and still has him out stumping for her, because she really can’t do it herself. Independent woman my a$$.

One more nail in the coffin of the NYT and the MSM......and Hillary.

The people DO NOT trust Washington, and they DO NOT trust the NYT or the MSM.

Result: A Net POSITIVE for Trump.

Trump just stole the news cycle yet again and now receives millions of dollars of FREE Advertising that Hillolita cannot even MATCH!

The Trump MSM boomerang is functioning perfectly, just as it has since last June. Trump must be part Australian!

“Why would anyone trust the NY Times?”

Because their theme blends well with their own morals and political values. I knew lefties that read the NYT, Time, Newsweek, listened to NPR very religiously and quoted their propaganda as fact when arguing politics.

And then there is a class of people that actually believe if it is written it has to be true. Seriously, I’ve actually talked to nitwits like this.

The problem for us is that these people vote.

my story would come across the way that I was telling it and honestly
They spun it to where it appeared negative.

They wrote it the way they heard it. They did not need spin to make it appear negative, because they heard it through their world view and wrote what they honestly thought they heard. It's actually more dangerous than a media that is trying to make Trump look bad.
If it were intentional, they'd be able to write an honest article if their credibility is on the line. But their subconscious filter/bias makes them unable to write an honest article even if their job depends on it.
Fortunately Trump is a master at dealing with them. I'd guess a lot more people will now hear her positive message and lots of media will have discussions about it and the NYT will lose some credibility so Hillary won't be able to use them as much for a reliable propaganda channel.

Trump has already set things up so the media has to cover "mistakes" like this more honestly than in the past. Notice how CNN ALWAYS corrects guests who say "Muslim ban" that it is a "temporary Muslim ban" - never would have happened with Romney/McCain/.... His attacks on the media and their dependency on revenue from covering him along with his willingness to spend time with them ($$$) has exposed their subconscious filter/bias to where they are aware and compensate for it.

Why is it, we never read about old boyfriends of Mrs Clinton?

Same question of our dear leader?

It is apparent, they had no friends.

And they HEAVILY censor the comments. I posted several times that the left had made sexual harassment in the workplace a “private matter” between a man and his spouse, and all were blocked.

The New York Times, Washington Post, and Boston Globe are WORTHLESS!!!!

Yes, they once were great newspapers. But that was a long time ago!!!!

And the Times story about Trump and women is the kind of trash that once was confined to tabloids like the National Enquirer! PHOOEY!!!!

The media is out in full force to destroy Trump. They have expended time, money and resources to “find” stories they think will eliminate Trump. Notice how they NEVER do this for democrats or other insane liberals.
