This whole thing started to fall to pieces a cpl weeks ago.. ABC came out with a story that they were contacted along with the Daily caller, but they just didn't buy the woman's story so they didn't run it.. Tucker came  back after that abc piece and said they had been speaking to a different woman, that their (tucker's) woman was legit..

odd that there is a lawyer running around down there with so many real and fake women claiming shit against a Dem  that they just have to sell to american media..*rollseyes*


here's what I want to know.. Brietbart's been caught lying. James O'Keefe's been caught lying to the point of being forced to pay the victim of his piece $150k. Fox? Well just the election results on their own fucked them.. and now their last darling, Tucker, has been caught making so much shit up that Fox won't even run the story anymore...

but it's the 'LSM' that's full of shit and Obama cool-aid?

It's because they're rabid.  

This stopped being about journalism or hard hitting pieces the second journalism or hard hitting pieces weren't delivering the type of ire, scandal, and ideological opposition slamming individuals like Briebart, O'Keefe, and now Carlson, feel the 4th estate should be bringing and conveying...every single day.

If their true intent was journalism or hard hitting pieces, that while tracking down information and truths, ended up being scathing as a result of the light shed on the particular subject...they're doing it wrong.

Their motivation and tenacity, as it pertains to *journalism*, has a pre-condition.  That being...that their political *journalism* (which there's nothing wrong with that. there are many reporters who deal specifically with politics) must operate as a function that EXPRESSLY blasts/condemns or relays negative ideological intrigue.  THAT is not *journalism.* That is propaganda.  If you're a political reporter, even one who identifies personally with a certain ideology (and everyone does to some degree), you stopped being a real journalist the second you rationalize that your ideology dictates and directs what political stories you'll print or pursue.  And especially when it's done with the pre-intent of ideological disparagement.  We don't need positive or negative cheerleaders for the ideology you bathe yourself in as your identifier.  It divides us and is a completely foul and loathsome use and abuse of the institution of journalism.
