So, still have no proof of it being a fake news source. The tweet said Trump's case "likely" to be dismissed bc of DOJ misconduct. Didn't say it was a fact Trump's indictment was gonna be dismissed .... but it was "likely" to be. How is that being a fake news site?
It's not even a good "what-about-ism" ....Your words- “I read the “articles” on the site. Completely unsourced and unabashed bs. When you use sites of that ilk as support for your arguments…you look like a gullible buffoon” Are you now ClearwaterBuffon?
Any news outlet that ran with those two fabricated stories and now the labeled buffoons who believed them.It's not even a good "what-about-ism" ....
What specific media outlet are you trying to equate Leading Report with?
It would be ridiculous to draw an equivalency between Leading Report and a major outlet such as ABC News, The New York Times or The Washington Post. That's not to say that those outlets haven't ever gotten stories wrong or been guilty of sloppy reporting. They have. That doesn't make them equal to InfoWars, however.
As far as Wapo is concerned, they had one of the biggest cases of journalistic fraud in history in 1980, by Janet Cooke (Jimmy's World), but that doesn't define who they are. They don't exist for the sheer purpose of spreading misinformation and propaganda ... as Leading Report does.

Can u at last admit when it comes to stories on Trump CNN and those like them will more likely report a false negative story without the same verification they would a story on Obama or another popular dem?That's ridiculous.
You are drawing your own patently absurd false equivalencies, based on your own emotionally-charged and tribal biases.
There is no reasoning with some of you. You are just as irrational, as you are unsophisticated.
A lot of these morons would have supported Hitler as he "made Germany great again!!" The concentration camps were "fake news" and the resistance from other German citizens was related to their "wokeness."
So those two were not fabricated stories and were deemed factual? I’m stating a side that conspired and had a base believe those fabricated stories should not call other news outlets less credible. And those that read them buffoons, when they are victims themselves of being a buffoon.That's ridiculous.

Please explain in more detail what the Nazis Playbook is, because both parties are running the playbook pretty well. Enlighten us with your knowledge and insight.Speaking for all my family members that died in death camps at the hands of Nazis. Please stop talking about things you don’t understand or know anything about. Right now it’s the Democrats running the Nazis playbook and you’re part of the problem. Stop being stupid
Absolutely. CNN clearly does prefer to report negative information about Trump ... than they do negative information concerning a Democrat. That would make them more likely to bypass verification protocol and publish false information about Trump.Can u at last admit when it comes to stories on Trump CNN and those like them will more likely report a false negative story without the same verification they would a story on Obama or another popular dem?
The Nazis main play had nothing to do with “Germany first”. That was not the problematic part of their ideology.Please explain in more detail what the Nazis Playbook is, because both parties are running the playbook pretty well. Enlighten us with your knowledge and insight.

That doesn't make them equal to The Gateway Pundit, InfoWars, Just the News, or Leading Report, however.
Tells me all I need to know for you to introduce this argument into this conversation and then try to explain it away. You sound more Democrat than Republican by doing so. I think you are just trying to stir s**t with some of the posters on this board. So be it, but take the Holocaust and that period of time, learn from it vs making it a faulty political point in an argument on a thread of a forum. In all seriousness, grow up.The Nazis main play had nothing to do with “Germany first”. That was not the problematic part of their ideology.
The Nazis blamed “white supremacy “……oops, i meant “Jews” for everything. They sold their BS the same way the Democrats do it today. The Nazis convinced the population that the Jews were subversive, subhuman, unintelligent beings not worthy of being considered human while at the same time being the big bad boogie man who is responsible for all their problems. It was very effective then just like it’s been very effective now. It’s actually amazing how they get away with Nazi propaganda and tactics while calling the people they use those tactics on Nazis.

Ya…..Tells me all I need to know for you to introduce this argument into this conversation and then try to explain it away. You sound more Democrat than Republican by doing so.

The left fell for MSM, no different in regards to being a buffoon. You can say “whataboutism” still makes you a buffoon by your own definition and that was the point.First off, proof read before you attempt to call someone stupid.
Second, he brought an argument to the table and sourced it with a fake news site. You then brought up a completely irrelevant argument about russian collusion and the steele dossier. That is whataboutism. What I did was say the source by which he supported his argument was bogus. I didn't bring up completely irrelevant points regarding completely different topics.
I don't believe that the media outlets which I mentioned up above, fabricate stories on a regular basis. The Washington Post had the Janet Cooke scandal and The New York Times had Jayson Blair. However, those are outliers in their lengthy track records. That is not indicative of the type of reporting that they are known for.Yes it does. A lie is a lie. No gray area with the truth.
Whatever. Too many fingers pointing at each other and introducing a subject that has really nothing to do with current events should be ignored and passed on for argument sake. I agree and there is no need to let the lost sheep control the board by addressing their stupidity. Ignore it.Ya…..
I didn’t introduce anything.
I called Bull **** on it when Lost sheep brought it up.
And since when is answering your question “explaining away “
Try to keep up and take your own advice

Those outlets do not exist for the sole purpose of promoting fake news stories. Are you such a far right loon that you honestly don't see the difference between InfoWars and ABC News? I feel like I lose brain cells posting in here. This place just feels beneath me. I think most adults would feel that way. You people are not well-learned intellectuals.
