Their attempt draw corollaries between the horrific deaths or circumstances of other journalists and the few harsh words he had with her only defeats their position really.

That also assumes that Pompeo did what she alleged. There are few journalists whose word I would automatically accept as true.

Bingo.

Her word on this is the only thing we have. I don’t buy a word of what she said.

First, who the heck has a blank world map just lying around? I don’t even know where you could get one.

Second, why should I believe that she could “point” to Ukraine on blank map?

Third, I am pretty sure Pompeo would not stoop to such petty triviality. If he was going to dress down a “reporter” why would be do it in private?

Sorry not buying any of this. Total fake news from NPR.

Yes very true - its a bit like metoo# where they expect us believe them and their interpretation of events that they may either make up or blow all out of proportion!
