Just a note of caution re: Sy Hersh. I haven’t paid a lot of attention to him, remember him as an unhinged radical back in the day (late 60s/70s). He uses unnamed sources, tends to stop just at the line of ethical reporting and will back off and retract in print, then go on to rant and smear when giving a speech. When called on his verbal statements, he tends to go to “not untrue, but I did mispeak”.

There’s a gap in his bibliography from the early 2000s to about 2014. He was employed as a columnist for NY Post at that time. I don’t have the time or inclination to try and fill it out. I also didn’t see any easily accessible family information. When I see his name attached to any information, I try to find alternate sources. I don’t think he’s a player, just a far left bomb-thrower.

I’m open to correction.

Rosanne just deleted this but 9 tweet. Did ABC force her?

“Qanon takes pics of the oval office & trump’s pen and inside AF 1. it’s more than a conspiracy theory-it’s an unfolding tale! it’s kinda about tracking snowden & following the money of the federal reserve/billionaires. I love spy stories!”

REMEMBER. The MSM accepts lies like white on rice.
They are paid off BEFORE THE FACT. Prime example:

QED

Apologies if already posted.

Roseanne is a Q fan. Interesting she mentioned ‘the Matrix’ and ‘Red October’. Note, no Hunt For.

Also interesting is that Julian Assange is AWOL.

RE: The Gap - he was still around, but like you said, you probably just weren’t paying attention:

2003: National Magazine Award for Public Interest
2004: National Magazine Award for Public Interest, Overseas Press Club Award, National Press Foundation’s Kiplinger Distinguished Contributions to Journalism Award, and his fifth George Polk Award
2017: Sam Adams Award for Integrity

RE: Alternate Sources. I always try to find alternate sources, no matter who it is, but I don’t automatically discount award winning investigative journalists, just because they are named Seymour Hersch.

As a general rule, I don’t trust journalists period.
