Ah, so the incription below with the date and location were added, not the message as a whole. So, the damning message Moore wrote she did not forge. Gotya. 

See, context folks.

Now, I will say that in light of this, it'd be in her best interests to comply with the request for a handwriting expert to compare stuff, as it doesn't look good to first say it was all his message and then to add, "Well I did add some notes below it".

Report: California Pension Fund At Risk With Focus On “Progressive” Investments.

The Washington Examiner (12/6, Pringle) writes that a new report from the American Council for Capital Formation (ACCF) says that the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS) “is edging closer to financial disaster by investing in progressive-oriented companies instead of more-profitable ones.” CalPERS has recently “dedicated a significant portion of its portfolio to environmental and social causes to advance its progressive agenda,” and the report’s analysis “discovered that four of its nine lowest-performing funds were related to renewable and clean energy.” ACCF Vice President of Policy and General Counsel Tim Doyle is quoted saying, “Rather than focusing on getting the fund back on firm financial footing, CalPERS’s management is making questionable investments of pensioners’ money into social and political causes that are not yielding acceptable returns. And even more troubling, because of how big the fund is and how much influence it wields, it’s actually now forcing other large investors and proxy advisory firms with which it does business to follow suit.” The Examiner adds, “In its current state, CalPERS only has enough assets to pay for two-thirds of the money it owes to California public workers and retirees.” Forbes (12/5) also addresses the issue in a column."

As a sequel, I read that Fox News corrected their "forgery" part to reflect actual reality. In news that should surprise no one, when Trump did his latest "fake news" bashing of erroneous reporting by networks, this wasn't included as part of the rant, since to him, news is only "fake" when saying so supports his narrative.

So, I was just watching a yt vid when I heard the comment (paraphrasing here) that FOX news has been comparatively reasonable when you view them against CNN, MSNBC, CBS, etc. I should mention that this was said by progressives. Yep, the old pinko, communistic, socialism-humping halfwits that would suck a fart out of Karl Marx's ass. FOX news was being complimented by progressives! Think about that for a moment. What the actual hell?!

They went on to talk about all of the CNN/MSNBC/CBS fake news that has happened in just this past week. Something like four incidents. And finally ended with asking these specific news sources to please talk about taxes, education, unions, etc. instead of fake news - with the caveat that the news stations are starting to not even discipline their journalists with the excuse that the fake news had passed editorial standards. 

Where are we when FOX news is being touted as comparatively reasonable by progressives. Honestly, this is something that nobody foresaw a year ago. Too much!

the backlash of the people against the biased media is what is going to get DT elected again.

Could be. 

 

CNN walks back yet another false story:

http://dailycaller.com/2017/12/11/cnn-walks-back-jeff-sessions-russia-bombshell/

 

They and the rest of the left-stream media have zero shame; their entire effort is to simply get rid of Trump.  The hysteria is laughable.

Notice you're ignoring Fox walking back their "yearbook forgery" story from a few days back, since it doesn't fit your left-wing media narrative.

I believe the lady admitted altering the yearbook, correct?

She just added the date under the signature. The signature and the message itself were not altered. 

Also, she is the 2nd accuser and is no way affilated to the Post story that had a ton of sources and is widely regarded to be true.

Lol. She admitted adding the date and location (which were clearly in different handwriting than the incryption and signature).

Fox put up a story claiming forgery.

Fox walked it back to say she added to it, removing any claims of forgery.

To say anything else is a weak attempt of disingenuity showing your blind partisanship.

Gotcha.  She altered the document, after the fact, then had to admit same.  Is that correct?  As for Fox, if they corrected a story, good for them.

 

 

And here we go again with CNN this morning:  terrorist act in NYC subway system, and they are talking about how many diet cokes Trump swigs in a day.  Hilarious.

Yep, good for them in walking their deceiving story back; just like good for CNN in walking back the one you posted earlier. Two sides of the same coin!

Here's my opinion: I think it is impossible for any news organization not to make a mistake upon some occasions. But in today's climate, when they are trying to be first on rumors, this is when they look bad, for real. And then for it to happen so many times in one week - that just makes you look like a bunch of idiots.

It is much worse than trying to be 'first on rumors'.  There are at least 5 major networks that are doing nothing more than planning, plotting, and purposefully airing stories that they can twist and turn to be negative against Trump.  At the same time, they are further deceiving viewers by never reporting stories that could be viewed as favorabel to Trump.  They are not even trying to hide their radical bias, and outright hatred for the guy.  All you have to do is sit back and pretend if the events of the day were the same, but obama was president, what would they be reporting, and how would the reports be portrayed.  It is simply shameful what is occurring; there has never been a greater example of 'the ends justifying the means'.

It is so easy to get information outside of the CNN/MSNBC world that you always complain about QO.  This isn't like Pravda in the USSR days.  You keep harping on your opinion that these networks will stop at nothing to bring down Trump.  Well then don't watch.  Get your news at one of the other millions of sources available in this day-in-age.  People are a lot smarter than you seem to give them credit for.  In general, they will figure out if a media outlet is not worth their time and then move on to something else that is.

I will be happily casting my vote for Doug Evans tomorrow in the AL senate race.  He's a good man who I have been excited to vote for long before Moore's weirdo past came to light.  That Moore played around with little girls isn't the main thing that bothers me about him.  That he believes his brand of politics is ordained by God above others is what I detest about him.  He's got a lot of blind followers down here who would vote for him no matter what.  But I think Doug Jones has a real chance.  It would be great for Alabama.
