| CNN Legal Analyst Worries BuzzFeed Foul-Up Makes The Media Look Like A Bunch Of Leftists Looking To Take Out Trump |
| 2019-01-22 |
| [Townhall] Is CNN this dense? I know‐you already know that they are. You’re not wrong, but in the wake of BuzzFeed’s appalling mishap concerning their shoddy story that President Trump had ordered his former personal lawyer to lie to Congress about a real estate deal in Russia, how is this analysis anything but an exercise in a lack of self-awareness. It’s tragicomic. These folks honestly think they’re a) unbiased, and b) not part of the anti-Trump ethos that has permeated the media since 2015. Speaking about this foul-up, CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said, "The larger message that a lot of people are going to take from this story is that the news media are a bunch of leftist liars who are dying to get the president and that they’re willing to lie to do it." |

| #13 Fascinating that Mueller killed the story when he could have 'been above it all' and let things play out for awhile. "Walt, why can't you give somebody credit for doing the right thing?' "Sure I can. Decent people." H. Beam Piper 'Four day planet' |
