Project Veritas takes down the holy grail of news media. The NY Times.

Comforting that making the spastic paralysis movements is only his usual impression when mocking people for being stupid. We all recall that from childhood probably, calling someone a spa moron was fairly common with associated hand gestures.

Poor poor Donald.

Howz the New Crock Times coming along on that investigative story of the affair that John McCain allegedly had with a consultant? You know. The one they put on the front page of the NYT a couple days after he announced his candidacy or after he got the nomination- I can't remember which. Oh that's right it never went anywhere. I am pretty sure they retracted it somewhere- maybe in the real estate section of the sunday paper or in an enclosed Home Depot flyer or something.

Funny how the only time stories get printed that are such bullshit they have to issue retractions and correction, it is always attacking a republican, you never see them forced to retract stories about Dems, because they would never run one unless it was absolutely rock solid, but when it is a hit piece on Trump they will run with anything no matter how flimsy the sourcing is.

Frigging John Edwards was running for president as a dem, and was porking his campaign video-taker person, and then had a secret "love child" with her. All of it turned out to be more than true. All while his wife was being propped up as a campaign wife, and then died of cancer. I can think of no good reason why she should not have shot Edwards dead before she died but its between them. However, Edwards was a serious contender for the dem nomination but the lefty press felt it had no duty to give us some insight into his character through some investigative work. For some reason, that kind of investigative work comes more easily for them when they are looking at Trump.

The only media that would touch the story was the National Enquirer. But, yeh, the New Crock Times was right there to clobber McCain when it would hurt him the most then they just walked sideways away from it like a crab when they could not produce any facts.

Pretty pathetic when you have go to the National Enquirer for news.

FINALLY he agreed Donald is pathetic. You sure know DT's history with the Enquirer!

The Enquirer/Edwards story is interesting enough. Trump's favorite tabloid (owned by a friend) & aliens stole my dingo brigade actually got a real story.

  • They got a call on their LA tip line that Rielle was spilling about her affair with the presidential candidate back in late September 2007.
  • Gabriel Sherman's piece in The New Republic has a detailed account of that first call: "In September 2007, Rick Egusquiza, a bartender turned Hollywood reporter who joined the Enquirer in 2000, was sitting at his desk in the paper's Los Angeles bureau when he answered the tip line. ("I'm a nice guy, so people tell me things," Egusquiza says.) The anonymous source told him that Edwards was having an affair with Hunter. "I was like, 'Whoa, this is great,'" he recalled. "Not like this is great, but you know, like this is something I want to check out." The piece was assigned the next day, and Barry Levine, the Enquirer's executive editor based in New York, directed the coverage that grew to include nearly a dozen reporters. "We saw some of the videos. It was clear back then, the flirtation was going on. Edwards was like a blushing kid to her," Egusquiza says."
  • In the Oct. 22, 2007 issue, David Perel printed an piece about Edwards’s secret affair, but the woman was not named in the piece.
  • Bloggers sniffed out the woman was Rielle Hunter, a campaign videographer.
  • More tips poured in, including one that Rielle was pregnant. The Enquirer rented a cottage in a gated community in North Carolina, where they heard she was staying in a gated community. That way they could get pictures of her without getting gruff from guards.
  • Reporters looked up local obstetricians and staked out two or three locations for more than two weeks.
  • They finally saw Rielle heading in for an appointment and snapped photos.
  • They rolled out their big "John Edwards Love Child Scandal” scoop in the Dec. 31 issue under seven reporters’ bylines.
  • On July 22, The Enquirer published another article noting that Edwards “was caught visiting his mistress and secret love child.” Photos were posted in its Aug. 18 issue that showed him playing with the baby at a hotel.
  • Boom! The story exploded across the mainstream media.
  • On Aug. 8, Edwards appeared on “Nightline” and sent out a statement explaining himself, although he would not admit he was the father of the baby until months later.
Now the Enquirer is in the running for the Pulitzer. Some critics will say they don't deserve the prize, since they posted articles from anonymous sources and paid some tipsters for information. But other admired journalists, like the New Yorker's Pulitzer Prize winning reporter Seymour Hersh, have used anonymous sources, although not without criticism.

Kinda small beans though. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_federal_political_scandals_in_the_United_States

Awwww, my friend was involved in this one, the memories... remember "Lawyergate"[109] or the Dismissal of U.S. attorneys controversy refers to President Bush firing, without explanation, eleven Republican federal prosecutors whom he himself had appointed. It is alleged that they were fired for prosecuting Republicans and not prosecuting Democrats.

It is certainly not the best paper in the nation if you are looking for responsible unbiased journalism on the topics of government and politics.
