Fox Joins with the Atlantic

Timothy Birdnow

Jennifer Griffin at Fox News is trying to corroborate the Atlantic story claiming Trump badmouthed the military.

From the article:

"Mark Levin added: Itâ€™s not clear to me what sources theyâ€™re talking about here. Two of the four anonymous sources used by the Atlantic confirm to Fox what they told the Atlantic? If so, thatâ€™s meaningless. But they remain anonymous, which means we the public cannot scrutinize these sources. And the press exists for us, not the press itself. It is we the article seeks to influence. Moreover, the numerous people on the record who deny what the anonymous sources reportedly said are unimpeachable and, even more, are willing to be scrutinized. No need to circle the wagons, either. That doesnâ€™t get the public the facts to draw their own conclusions.â€

Absolutely correct.

And why would we believe Fox anyway? James Murdoch, who's pretty much running the show for his father these days and wants to be in good graces with the Ruling Class, donated over a million dollars to the Biden campaign.

And Griffin has always had it in for President Trump. See here, and here .

Griffin was one of the women who accused Roger Ailes of sexual harassment, I might add.

And she spoke with FORMER Administration officials. Gee, I wonder who? McChrystal maybe? Did it never occur to her that perhaps speaking with disgruntled ex-Administration members might produce a false positive?

If this happened there is no reason why these guys can't go on record. That they remain "anonymous sources" speaks volumes.

I don't believe anything this succubus has to say.

And this supposedly happened in 2018; why is it only coming to light now, just two months before the election?

3 Frankly, Tim, I wouldn't have said "Fox joins with the Atlantic." She's no fox.

Maybe something like "One Fox correspondent joins with the Atlantic" or something like that. But when you have a guy like Bolton, who isn't exactly bosom buddies with the President, shooting the whole thing down, that kind of says something about its credibility.

6 Well, it would if I were to meet her in a bar. Oh, you mean about the story...

7 Oh, in a bar, now, are we talking? Whole different smoke... remember the country song about how the girls always get prettier at closing time?

Musician friend of mine once said "I never went to bed with an ugly woman. Woke up with quite a few..."
