Brit Hume: One Of The Wonders Of Modern Media Is Its Failure To See Through Adam Schiff
[HOTAIR] Adam Schiff
...Showboating U.S. Representative for California's 28th congressional district since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, Schiff has served in Congress since 2001. He currently serves as the chairman of the United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. In a manner reminiscent of Joe McCarthy, on March 22, 2017, in a interview with Chuck Todd on MSNBC Schiff claimed there was “more than circumstantial evidence now” that Donald Trump's campaign colluded with Russia." Todd followed up by asking if he had seen direct evidence of collusion and Schiff responded that there was "evidence that is not circumstantial and is very much worthy of investigation"...
claimed over the weekend that he shouldn’t be held accountable for his own previous efforts to discount the numerous errors in the FBI’s FISA application on Carter Page. "I’m certainly willing to admit that the Inspector General found serious abuses of FISA that I was unaware of," Schiff told Fox News’ Chris Wallace. He added, "Had I known of them, Chris, yes, I would have called out the FBI at the same time. But I think it’s only fair to judge what we knew at the time, not what would be revealed two years later."

As Ed wrote yesterday, Schiff’s explanation for his failure to see what was presented in the Nunes memo is "nonsense on stilts." I wrote a comparison between the information contained in the Nunes memo and the conclusions from the Horowitz report here. Every major point of the memo was substantiated by Horowitz’ report while Schiff’s response memo was cut off at the knees.

#1 Schiff is the poster clown for The Shitshow.

Stupid.
Incompetent.
Mendacious.
Absurdly pompous.
Obtusely self-regarding.

A f---ing criminal.

#2 One Of The Wonders Of Modern Media Is Its Failure To See anything that doesn't fit the narrative?

#3 Hume is supposed to be "Mr. Gravitas" at FauxNews, but he's as much of a weathervane (remember that Jawn Kerry as weathervane commercial) as any of the rest of them.

#4 See through? They're part of the cast and production crew of the whole thing. They are the propaganda arm of the party.

#5 Failure to see?

No. Deliberate and calculated stories to push the narrative. The MSM is nothing more than the propaganda arm of the demoncratic party. The reporters are demoncrat activists with bylines.

#6 The media is complicit in this coup. They know exactly what they are doing. Brit knows this as well. Brit could be a writer for the Babylon Bee if this Fox thing goes away.

#7 They are blinded by their hate for the current president, they are brainwashed by the constant talking points and propaganda, The are delusional in thinking they are entitled to their positions of power, and they feel a false sense of security in those positions.

#8 I am always surprised by the shit that comes out of Adam Schiff's mouth. He seems to know an infinite number of ways to maliciously twist the facts. He must spend a considerable amount of time studying and practicing the art of deception. Anyone who knows anything can see right through it but, as the headline says, our modern media has failed with the result that there are millions of citizens who don't know any better.
