When you have a woman putting forward a forgery, and you do no due diligence, that has to be punished. As you say, there have been plenty of vicious allegations in the past - but at least in my memory (and I’m getting on a bit) it has always been directed at Republicans. With the notable exception of the Gary Hart “Monkey Business,” which was an internecine Democrat affair.My whole point is that while Moore needs to vindicate his integrity by suing, we all need a champion who will take his or her case and generalize it to attack the whole MSM and its pattern of pro-socialist propaganda. Hillary won the nationwide popular vote after being “exonerated” by Comey’s speech which actually demonstrated conclusively that she belonged in jail. Without the propaganda campaign glossing that over, she shouldn’t have had a Chinaman’s chance in the general election.
Going back to the earliest days of our unio, news organizations were used as tools to spread rumor and innuendo. Some of it would make Moore’s seem tame. Let’s face it, Rush and Sean do it daily. The original women of the Post story were pretty well vetted. Its one reason why the fake lady hired by Project Veritas was exposed as a fraud. The lady with the yearbook, well she may be vulnerable.
