No sh*t, Sherlock.

My bad, it was Bernstein:

A most excellent post. In a very real sense those two partisan hacks laid the foundation and set the tone for future attacks on GOP presidents. It was bias driven journalistic malpractice.

Seems the Washington Post and New York Times hire from the same criteria lists as the Biden Administration: sexual kink, pigmentation, commie/progressive ideology and 'who was your grandfather'...

Suggestion: Fire the bimbos and pretentious 'men' and get some middle class and working class folks in there (people who don't kiss 'elite' butt) and teach them to write.

I guess that 50 million dollar lawsuit was intended to get Woodward a tad worried about what he says next.

Tho he won't admit it, he knows damn wall that Valerie Plame was a lying bitch. To this day, there has been no one who has verified her claim that she was an undercover CIA agent, nor has there ever been an attempt by anyone in the MSM to verify.

It was too convenient to trash Bush for three years of bogus investigations, just like they did with Reagan and the Iran/Contra circus and Trump's Russian collusion.

Hopefully everyone can see the pattern......,.

You are Correct.

Mark Warner, Burr, Rubio, Graham

And they pushed a narrative they knew was pure BS.

His investment/retirement portfolio is sinking and he’s probably pissed.

Yes, I know. What’s your point? The article is a lie, and no one’s pointed it out? There is a discussion page for all page edits, where editors have to defend their edits.

I don’t see anything edited out that he was CIA...

I mean we all could be living in a simulation, but I’m not trying to argue that.

No.

The poster posted (in #15):

Woodward was a long time CIA agent before somehow becoming a ‘reporter’ for a major publication overnight...

There's a huge difference between providing cover and being an actual agent/operative.

Again, I'm not defending him. I think he's a loudmouth, self-serving baggart (Woodward, I mean). I'm sure he wants people to think he's some James Bond super action man.

I just want Free Republic to be accurate and not spread rumors and made-up stuff the Left can use to show we're dumb.

Posters correcting other posters was a keen part of our early years, with requests for citation and calling out innuendo and lies seen through almost every thread. We certainly hauled the reporters over it when they didn't do diligence on their stories. I don't want to see us drift into the world of "modern journalism", where they lie to promote the narrative.

Maybe he called the dossier garbage, but did he say all of the Trump-Russia conspiracies were garbage?
