One of the best articles I have read in a long time. Concise and illustrates many of the best examples. I would have added another angle on this with a couple of examples.
#1 - the failure of the media to excoriate and/or investigate Benghazi. From the fake video to the facts about what occurred the media lied, covered, and granted a pass to the administration. Contrast this with the hysterical reactions to bad things that happened under the Bush administration.
#2 - The continuing lie of “no WMD in Iraq.” There were WMD there and this occurred at the same time our soldiers were being hit with IED’s using Iraq’s massive stockpile of artillery shells (to include chemical shells). The military chose not to announce this for the safety of our troops, but it is time for the truth to be told. Furthermore, they ignored the string of convoys headed into Syria from Iraq prior to the invasion. This one still makes me angry to this day. Furthermore, the media regularly proclaim that the Bush administration lied about the intelligence. They did not. Everyone, and I mean everyone, to include the Russians, Israelis, British, French, Germans, and the UN investigators said they were there.
Do these constitute “fake news?” I think they do. How about a comparison of the Scooter Libby fiasco with Hillary’s criminal acts with classified information? Perhaps they are too busy getting their marching orders from the DNC and Clinton campaign.
We didn't send our boys into Iraq because of left over weapons from Iraq/Iran war. The supposed threat was for new weapons that threatened US. Secondly, if the military was concerned for our safety, then they would have handled the medical care for our boys better concerning the use of bio-hazards on our men. They don't give a rats ass and good men still suffer.
