Bill Taylor Cites NYT as Source for His Claim Trump Wanted Ukraine to Get Dirt on Biden
breitbart.com ^ | 6 Nov 2019
The transcripts of his testimony described the Zeldin-Taylor exchange as follow:
Zeldin: What was the goal of requesting investigations into 2016 election and [Ukrainian company that employed Hunter] Burisma?
Taylor: As I understand it from one of the maybe the article in the New York Times about [Trump’s private lawyer] Mr. [Rudy] Giuliani’s interest in Burisma, in that article, he describes, and I think he quotes Giuliani at some length, that article indicates that Giuliani was interested in getting some information on Vice President Biden that would be useful to Mr.Giuliani’s client. I think that’s what he says. He says he’s got one client, and he’s useful to the client.
Zeldin: And then it’s your inference that Mr. Giuliani’s goal would be the President’s goal?
Taylor: Yes.
Zeldin: And your source is the New York Times?
Taylor: Yes.
Zeldin: So do you have any other source that the President’s goal in making this request was anything other than the New York Times?
Taylor: I have not talked to the president. I have no other information from what the President was thinking.

WATCH: Nancy Pelosi Details ‘Wrap-Up Smear’ Technique. It Sounds Exactly Like The Kavanaugh Smear.
OCTOBER 8TH, 2018
A video of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) detailing a political tactic called the “wrap-up smear” to reporters in 2017 has resurfaced online in light of the nasty smear campaign launched against recently sworn-in Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Pelosi described the smear as a common “diversionary tactic” of the Republicans, unsurprisingly.
“It’s a diversionary tactic,” she starts. “It’s a self-fulfilling prophesy, you demonize and then — the ‘wrap-up smear.’ You wanna talk politics? We call it the ‘wrap-up smear.’”
“You smear somebody with falsehoods and all the rest,” Pelosi detailed, “and then you merchandise it. And then you (gesturing to the media) write it, and then they say, ‘See, it’s reported in the press that this, this, this, and this.’ So they have that validation that the press reported the smear, and then it’s called the ‘wrap-up smear.’”
“And now I’m going to merchandise the press’s report on the smear that we made,” she repeated. “It’s a tactic. And it’s self-evident.”
