CNN: who cares about truth? Demonize the military and ruin an innocent man's reputation! Air it fast and often. Best journalistic malpractice anywhere.

I just heard about this today for the first time, since I haven’t watched CNN in decades.

I read a few articles on this, but they didn’t shed much light on Young’s activities other than he was involved with getting people evacuated for money.

I don’t have a problem with his doing it for money. CNN or the government weren’t helping, did they expect the guy to do it for free, especially in a collapsing and hazardous environment?

I was doing a Trump standout in my blue state back in October, and was approached by a guy with a very friendly demeanor who said he was a reporter for a local newspaper, and he asked if he could interview me.

I politely and civilly told him: “Nothing personal here, but I will decline since I don’t trust your profession.”

Then he entered full moonbat mode and showed his true self. He was no reporter, he obviously was looking for something he could post online.

How does CNN get a math teacher/OEF Vet to make that slander post about him? Random and interesting to think of the assets and favors that are available. Investigating that teacher would be an interesting rabbit hole?

Nowadays, who’s phone doesn’t go to voice mail when no one accepts the call?

I hope he scores big and it crushes CNN, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Whiner. He’s a tool who was working as hard as he could to bring in Afghans to America.

He’s no hero.

Story sounds similar to what my brother experienced when he was in Viet Nam. My brother was an Army intelligence officer, and was one of the ones CBS’ Dan Rather interviewed when Rather went into the war zone for a story. While inside the compound, and with Rather talking to him, the camera crew was freely walking around filming. Later, after my brother was able to see the CBS “special report” newscast, it made him angry and forever distrust the broadcast “news” business. He said apparently all they wanted was to get film to “authenticate” and advance a desired narrative. (ie a propaganda film) When Rather reported his “findings”, my brother said it was like the story had been written in New York before the “news” crew ever got on the plane to Viet Nam. They knew what they wanted to tell the Amercian people, but they had to actually go to Viet Nam and take pictures in order to fool people into actually believing them.

From that day forward, I have never taken for gospel what the media says without having some way to know it was likely true.
