Study Finds Fake News Swayed Voters

Republican Benghazi Report disputes that, may want to read it.


"The report, which included perhaps the most exhaustive chronology of the attacks to date, did not dispute that United States military forces stationed in Europe could not have reached Benghazi in time to rescue the personnel who died — a central finding of previous inquiries."

I don't dispute assets in Europe could have reached Benghazi in time..... No brainier.

We had assets in Libya.

That's it? That's your comeback after trying to push the bullshit narrative that Saudi funded jihadists needed second hand weapons from US to continue their conservative mission?

Do you even read the crap you post. Where did I mention Saudi anything.

Your noted study pushes the narrative of "fake news" that Hillary didn't have health problems and arms didn't land in the hands of jihadists.

Your study is fake.

The US had deployable assets in the area that could have rescued Stevens and others.

After all wasn't it some spontaneous outrage to some video tape?

Where were the assets? And why did how many investigations conclude there was nothing to do?

And I mean exactly where. Not you have an idea there were.

Same thing with my ex-marine, big on notions, no facts. Do you have facts? I'll admit, I did not follow the whole shitshow of the investigations so please, point me to the assets.
 
Anyway what has this got to do with fake news? Beyond showing how the GOP made a show of itself and embarrassed the US to the world. No wonder the Chinese are kicking your asses, the GOP playing block everything did a lot of damage.

I'm off to watch TV.

You have been brainwashed to just KNOW something was fishy. But that is all it is, you have a soft brain.

You say your a military man. How is it possible that at that moment we had a US facility/Ambassador/Embassy in a hot area with "zero" backup. EUCOM had no one, no AC130's, no F16's and only one, count them one drone, unarmed?

If it's true, those responsible should be held in dereliction of duty.

A new Ohio State University study finds that fake news probably played a significant role in depressing Hillary Clinton’s support on Election Day.

The study suggests that about 4% of Barack Obama’s 2012 supporters were dissuaded from voting for Clinton in 2016 by belief in fake news stories.

Hmmm...I did a cursory review and I didn't read anything about how fake news dissuaded Trump voters. That is strange.
 
This is news to you? Fake news has been swaying voters since, well, forever. It's called campaigning and media minions dispensing the bullshit. What the fuck do you think if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor was? Fake news. What do you think Mission Accomplished was? Fake news. What do you think damn near anything that comes out of a politicians mouth is? Fake news. Jesus, grow up kid, this country runs on bullshit.
