Members DRW50 Posted April 20, 2018 Members Share Posted April 20, 2018 So I see that Comey was out there talking about McCabe even though he will likely have to testify ("talking about" as in "throwing under the bus"). Why has this perpetually self-serving man been given such a platform? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 20, 2018 Members Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) China is putting its collective finger in the eye of Trump supporters yet again, and all of us by extension. The joke is that these people will still support him - I imagine China knows this and finds it hilarious. I wish I could. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/apr/20/us-sorghum-fleet-china-grain-tariff-trade Edited April 20, 2018 by DRW50 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted April 20, 2018 Members Share Posted April 20, 2018 A refreshingly candid piece from a NYT election correspondent on their failures, for once: As a counterpoint, however, Amy Chozick was reportedly one of the Clinton campaign's most negative embedded journos at the time, and we have this: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted April 20, 2018 Members Share Posted April 20, 2018 C'mon, who DOESN'T he treat like garbage? I truly do not care what Chozick has to say. Yes, I, too, fell for the "WHAT ABOUT HER EMAILS??" con (although, not to extent that I would have voted for Trump or third-party). But what good does admitting that do for us now? Just do better! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 20, 2018 Members Share Posted April 20, 2018 Why do people give money or attention to NYT? Does their news coverage actually have anything to offer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted April 20, 2018 Members Share Posted April 20, 2018 The regional NYC section still offers some decent in-depth coverage from time to time but no, I do not give them my money and cannot remember the last time I purchased a copy of the paper, online or hard copy.

Members Vee Posted April 21, 2018 Members Share Posted April 21, 2018 I do think they offer decent coverage and analysis on some stuff. I also think about 95% of their major staff is blinkered and cloistered in a bubble of groupthink and knee-jerk resistance to any criticism of longstanding attitudes and bias. You have to take the solid material they do produce and then account for their weaknesses critically. And no, I don't give them money either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted April 21, 2018 Members Share Posted April 21, 2018 I'm surprised Trump even wanted her to be there. I could say something very bitchy but I won't... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
