There was true stuff in a memo Dan Rather reported on. Ask him how that went. But hey, no such thing as fake news I guess.

In other words, you got nothing at all...

   Redstate goes off on the NYT. NYT had a Sessions piece that included the McCaskill quote about never meeting a Russian ambassador, then when the photo showed up disproving her statement, the Times removed her quote from the article, without ever noting the change. I kind of go meh, but Eric Ericson sees it as a great example of why people distrust the MSM.

Dan Rather's back and reporting on Sessions?

Cool.

You mean the mainstream media uses creative editing to support their biases? Who knew?

Tri-ing to have fun. Anything else is just a bonus!

Ok, that's really crappy.

"Are you sure we're going fast enough?" - Emil Zatopek

That is a good article. I'm an idiot for going a day with my opinion just based on a short video clip that WaPo posted. Stupid me. Luckily my 15 minuted afternoon drive coincided with Rush Limbaugh explaining the context of the question put to Sessions.

More articles about the fake news epidemic at the main stream media:

Victor Davis Hanson with good overall commentary about the grave the media is digging for itself.

The Federalist. sixteen fake news stories that have run since Trump won

Trump has a problem with the truth? Hah, liberals are the biggest liars.

You prove that the lavender room is a nice place. You said that when you could have just called me an idiot.

Alright, so I clicked on your link. It's a bit sensationalist - it talks about "viral" stories that are getting some thousands or tens of thousands of tweets/retweets/reacharounds. And fer-cryin'-out-loud I bet some of Duffy's gifs get more attention than that.

And not that I'm a news junkie, but the only one of these that I'd heard of and hadn't immediately dismissed as BS was the Devos grizzly story (which I heard during a live broadcast of the hearing, and which was shocking and amusing when heard live, in context). Your link dismisses it as fake news but seriously, you can listen to it many places (like here:http://www.cnn.com/...trol-comment-sot.cnn and decide for yourself whether she has a firm grasp on reality or not. There's a reason she was mocked for this, and it has nothing to do with fake news.

And I'm certainly not one to defend the media (liberal or otherwise), but any comparison of these tabloid stories to what we've heard coming out of the mouth of a sitting president is silly.

Contrasting the truthfulness of the media with that of the President of the United States? Is that really how you want to defend Trump?

you're arguing with a robot who listens to Rush Limbaugh

I guess their cleaner missed this one, huh?

Sorry, I wasn't thorough enough. They missed this one, too:

which includes this:


No wonder the Democrats lost the election: their media can't even whitewash their own agenda.

LOL. So instead of adding a correction to the original piece, they bury it in other articles in the web where folks like you might see it if you search for it.

The point is that McCaskill's tweet was relevant in an article about Sessions when it made him look bad. When the comparison to McCaskill is no longer damning, the McCaskill piece gets moved.

Is it now the normal NYTimes editorial policy to correct facts and errors in articles by just deleting mistakes and publishing the truth elsewhere? I thought appending notices of corrections at the bottom of articles was a staple of good internet journalism.

I'm sorry I've been bothering you so much lately. You can ignore me you know.

I listen to Rush sometimes too; although it has been a while.

Usually H- brings a good game with insight and humor; not sure why this fake-news thing has him so out of character.

And wtf is H- anyway? You can't just go adding an electron to hydrogen ...

No, I think the point is that the original post here said that the Times removed her quote, without ever noting the change. Ken responded by showing they did note the change, yet your anger is still directed towards The Times even though they corrected the story.

Why aren't you outraged against Restate for making their false claim that the Times never noted the change?
