"It is entertaining when lib Media turn on their own and start eating each other"

It's entertaining, yes, but much more is happening here. The media has a product to sell. That product is "Credibility". If the public does not view them as credible, then they won't watch their programs nor will they see the ads for their sponsors. The sponsors will feel the pinch in their pocketbooks and will cease buying ad time on the networks and it goes downhill rapidly from there. ALL the networks have to be very concerned right now.

Check out the ABC story:

Among the points Flynn and other experts noted:

The memos were written using a proportional typeface, where letters take up variable space according to their size, rather than fixed-pitch typeface used on typewriters, where each letter is allotted the same space. Proportional typefaces are available only on computers or on very high-end typewriters that were unlikely to be used by the National Guard.
The memos include superscript, i.e. the "th" in "187th" appears above the line in a smaller font. Superscript was not available on typewriters.
The memos included "curly" apostrophes rather than straight apostrophes found on typewriters.
The font used in the memos is Times Roman, which was in use for printing but not in typewriters. The Haas Atlas — the bible of fonts — does not list Times Roman as an available font for typewriters.
The vertical spacing used in the memos, measured at 13 points, was not available in typewriters, and only became possible with the advent of computers.
