If not for the incessant misrepresentation of data and outright lies being told in the media right now I’d be ready to say there is enough smoke around Trump to say there is a fire.

However, the media is so obviously creating a narrative out of whole cloth that I know they are not speaking honestly so that must mean Team Trump is.

It's amazing how we went from Cronkite to today, and people don't understand why people question the media today.

Cronkite wasn't that great either, dude.

People who try to set themselves up as the gatekeepers of the truth in news are fucking poison, even when they seem affable and trustworthy.

Engineering Fake News

Here is a copy of the flyer from the FBI announcing the retirement of an agent.

The FBI declined to comment on the flyer, saying the bureau does not confirm or deny any official or unofficial communications.

CNN did not respond to TheDC’s request for comment.

Campbell authored a Friday op-ed for The New York Times declaring that he was leaving the bureau “so [he] can join the growing chorus of people who believe that the relentless attacks on the bureau undermine not just America’s premier law enforcement agency but also the nation’s security.”

Former CIA Director John 'Spy's on SCOTUS' Brennan has signed on to be a talking head on NBC and MSNBC.

ABC and CBS better get with it. They need to be hiring Intel Community retirees to refute the evidence coming out against SPECTRE.
CNN already has Josh 'Comey Cuck' Campbell.

James 'WMD in Iraq' Clapper and Eric 'Fast N Furious' Holder are still available, but ya better hurry. Gotta get the narrative out there that this entire investigation of SPECTRE is a Nothingburger.

Good Article on concerns over Spooks becoming News reporters
Standard journalistic contributors—reporters, anchors, editors, producers—pursue the news wherever it goes without fear or favor, as the famous motto puts it. But almost to a one, the TV spooks still identify with their former employers at the CIA, FBI, DEA, DHS, or other security agencies and remain protective of their institutions. This makes nearly every word that comes out of their mouths suspect. Are they telling God’s truth or are they shilling for their former bosses? Or worse yet, do they have other employers (some of the TV generals were also working for defense contractors), causing them to pull punches in yet another direction?
