“selective misreading”

What is that supposed to mean?

Quickly debunked.....by ‘other media outlets’......mmm hmmmm.

How threatened, or payed off, who...to get the story squashed?

Will Tucker and Laura be forced to offer an apology, too?

I want to see the proof that the original story is NOT true.

Oh, and isn’t Doocey the doof who told POTUS, last week....wait, we’re not confirmed that you’ll be on, every week....?

Btw, POTUS WAS on F&F, again, this week...this morning.

“I want to see the proof that the original story is NOT true.”

It was retracted by the original publisher.

The data about the low number of cases at the time tied to bars and restaurants was disclosed at a July 2 press conference.

And yet he kept the Bars and Restaurants at reduced occupancy.

Why?

And yet... that’s what Nashville DID.

The story was retracted because they couldn’t confirm it was deliberate and Nashville said the information was always out there - which is true. But the fact of the matter is that they deliberately ignored that info and kept the bars and restaurants locked down.

“Why? “

It’s what commies do.

Yet nothing was hidden from anybody.

They didn’t cover it up.

They ignored it.

Like how you said there’d be several hundred million infected with corona virus by March 1, 2020.

Notice how this excerpt doesn’t even say what was wrong in the report or what was corrected.

“hah, has CNN, MSDNC ever apologized?”

Fox is showing they have a little more integrity.

But their editorialists (Ingraham, Carlson et al) are so far silent.

No - they INTENTIONALLY ignored it. That IS covering it up.

Low numbers are to be expected when restaurants and bars are sparsely populated. I questioned the premise from the get go.

Yeah, like that.

Everyone should go read that old post for an example.

They are fools. I would correct my errors when they correct theirs. I would broadcast that too!

“I want to see the proof that the original story is NOT true.”

~~~~~~

It was retracted by the original publisher.

Again....what threats/payoffs were made to retract it?

Just because they retracted it (the Fox affiliate) doesn't mean it wasn't true.

So....now, we're not supposed to believe the leaked emails????

Got it 🙄
