All they do is push the narrative that protects the Democrat Party, and attacks anyone to the right of Karl Marx.
A recording of the call definitively proved that the quotes cited by the Washington Post, and then parroted by other outlets, were never actually said by the president at all.
But, as Becket Adams explains at the Washington Examiner, “the Washington Post’s dud of a ‘bombshell’ isn’t even the most scandalous thing about this episode in media malfeasance.”
The most scandalous thing, Adams, argues, is that several different newsrooms “claimed they independently ‘confirmed’ the original ‘scoop’ with anonymous sources of their own.”
When Trump called the media the "Enemy of the People", he wasn't wrong.
And Insty himself has a question: "You know who knew this all along? Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. But he didn’t say anything to refute the story. Why not? Was he the “anonymous source” who led the press astray?"
The better question is: Did Raffensburger know the quotes were wrong and not correct them? That might be real ammunition to unseat him.
