Flog that dead horse...

...but every news organization working today will make mistakes; it's inevitable. The New York Times made a mistake and when it was brought to its attention, corrected the error.

And there are always going to be disgruntled former employees with an axe to grind.

However, the New York Times is the most honored newspaper in the world and has been awarded 132 Pulitzer Prizes, mostly for excellence in journalism, more than any other news organization.

Since 2000, the New York Times has been awarded over 50 Pulitzer Prizes.

For those who prefer to get their "news" from the Gateway Pundit and Zero Hedge, please remind me: how many Pulitzer Prizes have they been awarded?

Common,good morning, I’m shocked that you would respond in that way, shocked. If you have any interest in doing a comedy act in Vegas, let me know, I’ll try to hook you up. Carry on.

Common, I have little doubt you know almost everything but let me tell you something even you might not know. FB is very diligent with respect to what they allow to be posted on their platform. In Oct 2020 I tried to share the Hunter laptop story. For the first time in over five years, FB blocked my ZH report on Hunter and his laptop. fb assured me that over 50 brilliant fair and balanced experts, had opined that the Hunter laptop story was, misinformation. fb owns messenger, FB would not allow me to send the story to friends and family via messenger. If that story had received wide coverage in Oct 2020, do you think that may have had an impact on the election results? Google the definition of a, rigged election. FB and Mark Zuckerberg have since admitted that the story should not have been blocked and that the Feds pressured him to, police the content on FB, to favor team Biden. Now Google , rigged election, again. To repeat, in my opinion neither Trump nor Biden should be on the ballot in 2024. Haley vs Jeh Johnson would be my dream match up, to make America better going forward. Have a grand day.

hclasvegas: ...over 50 brilliant fair and balanced experts, had opined that the Hunter laptop story was, misinformation.

Sorry, wrong.

The letter said that the arrival on the US political scene of Hunter Biden emails "has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation. We want to emphasize that we do not know if the emails, provided to the New York Post by President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, are genuine or not and that we do not have evidence of Russian involvement -- just that our experience makes us deeply suspicious..."

hclasvegas: FB and Mark Zuckerberg have since admitted that the story should not have been blocked and that the Feds pressured him to...

Sorry, wrong again.

Here is the statement by Facebook: "As we've said, nothing about the Hunter Biden laptop story is new. Below is what Mark told Sen. Johnson in Oct 2020 and what Mark told Joe Rogan this week. The FBI shared general warnings about foreign interference -- nothing specific about Hunter Biden.

https://twitter.com/MetaNewsroom/status/1563225392...


Trump has been claiming elections are rigged as far back as 2012, lying when president Barack Obama was reelected that the election was a "total sham" and a "travesty," while also making the claim that the United States is "not a democracy" after Obama won.

Trump even wrote on Twitter, "We can't let this happen. We should march on Washington and stop this travesty."

Trump said he did not lose the Iowa caucuses in 2016 to Ted Cruz, because Cruz "stole it." Trump said then that "Based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified."

In October 2016, just weeks before the general election, Trump wanted to cast doubt on the results by tweeting, "The election is absolutely being rigged by the dishonest and distorted media pushing Crooked Hillary -- but also at many polling places -- SAD."

Trump drew three cards in 2016 and filled an inside straight. The guy's a loser who lost the House, the Senate, and the White House. He's a crook who refused to honor the American tradition of a smooth transition of power and, instead, illegally tried to block the incoming president from taking office.

The suggestion that 2020 was a "rigged" election is absurd. Only real Kool-Aid drinkers still believe that nonsense.

Common, are you saying FB did not block the Hunter story from running in Oct 2020 on FB ? Did FB prevent me from sharing it via messenger? Have you already forgotten how the msm reported the laptop story prior to Nov 2020? Come on man, are you auditioning for your own show on msnbc? When I gave my own report on the Hunter story, you know the responses I received ? You know who and what they quoted to assure me I’d gone nuts ? Do you know Tony Bobulinski or any of his relatives? Tony is even sharper than Joy Behar or Maddow trust me bud.

“” The FBI shared general warnings about foreign interference -- nothing specific about Hunter Biden.“” I love you man, most of the old time comedians in Vegas have passed away, you have potential. Some kid named Musk decided to challenge team Biden, how has that worked out for him? Google Taibbi, Bari Weiss, Greenwald, etc, leave your echo chamber. Pickle ball time, have a grand day.

hclasvegas: Do you know Tony Bobulinski or any of his relatives? Tony is even sharper than Joy Behar or Maddow trust me bud.

Well, yeah, I'm very aware that Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich combed through all of the texts and emails released by Bobulinski and determined that his claims were false.

HEINRICH: I completed searching all of Tony Bobulinski's emails. They establish: the "Chairman" is China; NO ROLE for Joe Biden in emails/docs; Tony Bobulinski states himself there are NO OTHER MEMBERS besides Hunter Biden, Jim Biden, Rob Walker, James Gillar, and Bobulinski."

Fox News.

The Wall Street Journal examined Bobulinski's claims and reported that corporate records it reviewed showed "no role for Joe Biden" in any of SinoHawk's dealings.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/hunter-bidens-ex-busi...

Marci Wheeler has reported extensively on Bobulinski: "The passage neglects to mention that Bobulinski worked with Walker, Gilliar, and Hunter to set up SinoHawk. It definitely doesn’t mention that the driving reason why Hunter 'cut out his SinoHawk business partners,' which definitely included Bobulinski but which as written does not, was because Hunter thought Bobulinski was an asshole, both Hunter and Walker had concerns about Bobulinski’s Russian business ties, James Biden had concerns about his ties to pornography, and Walker, James Biden, and Hunter all thought he was a terrible fit for the group.

And you said you're a fan of Dan Abrams and NewsNation.

ABRAMS on Bobulinski: I have no interest in calling him a liar, just questioning him and digging in beyond the sort of softball interviews he’s had on Fox News.

He certainly gave the impression that he would go anywhere, anytime to discuss the merits of his accusations and to present his evidence. So we reached out to him and offered to have him on the show. He responded that he was incredibly busy, but interested, if I read the Grassley Johnson report on Biden’s alleged conflicts of interest, and if we devote a full hour to the topic.

I assured him I would come in fully informed and read in and we would, as he requested, devote a full hour to the topic. We offered to send a car to pick him up, wherever he is, and then we didn’t hear from him again. We followed up and still haven’t heard back, which is odd, considering that he said this during his Fox interview.


Come out of the echo chamber. Even Abrams, one of your go-to news sources, thinks Bobulinski's a fraud. Abrams offered to give Bobulinski a full hour on his show. Bobulinski was too afraid to show up and has refused to for over a year now.
