Due to over 25 years in the newspaper, publishing industry I can with 100% certainty tell you that the MSM is and has been using the most powerful and most dishonest tool in all of journalism since at least the time they used that tactic to get America into the Spanish American war which was simply to increase circulation.
This used to be called the “SPIKE” in newspapers where a physical spike on an editor’s desk was used to impale any story which ran counter to the paper’s agenda.
The media used the SPIKE, now known as Lies by Omission, to assure the public, like you, would never know what they did not know. A very powerful and dishonest tool.
Obama had Brennan and Clapper tap USSC justice Roberts communications and used his “private” adoption of his 2 children from Ireland, which at the time did NOT allow “Private” adoptions.
This was used to blackmail/extort Roberts into his convoluted support for CACA {Can’t Afford Care Act}.
By the way, this information came directly from the Obama administration, including Hillary’s e-mails.
Do you remember Freeper CommonTator? A classic.
