[snooper2]

10. So, you going to let us know now LOL? Don't worry they aren't tracking you

Only I know who you are

17. Nice post, Agent Mike.

[melman]

21. So these thing that you dare not say

It's pretty obvious what you're getting at.

How is it that you know these things that you would explain if you only could?

2. They are simply reflexively and instinctively Anti-Clinton, facts be damned.

Politico's reporting was the same during the campaign: Being against Clinton sells.

5. If someone attacks the party on an almost daily basis

whether they are radio talk show hosts or politicians, then what ELSE do you NEED

7. I stopped watching TYT a long time ago

[Snake Plissken]

11. I could no longer take them seriously when they started peddling Russian anti Clinton propaganda

I actually forgot they even existed until I saw this and googled TYT to see what it was.

12. What's the point?

Clinton isn't running again and this is old news.

[JCanete]

13. Not every story that is negative to Clinton or Democrats or Sanders, etc. is automatically a lie,

nor is it automatically Republican talking points or propaganda, even if Republicans are using them. You can't take something off the table of analysis and discussion simply because of that. Should people not be mentioning here, gleefully, the investigation into Sander's wife simply because a Republican started off that chain of events?

Granted, they shouldn't be jumping to conclusions, and neither should Jordan without enough evidence. I don't know enough about this story to say whether or not he's propagating demonstrable falsehoods or whether his dot connecting leaves a lot to be desired. If you have insight there on why he's so wrong, that would be far more interesting to me than just saying "see, same arguments..."

14. Do your own research and get back to me once you're up to speed

I'm not your personal google...

[JCanete]

18. but you were the one making a case...supposedly.

[uponit7771]

19. Of course in a vacuum this would be true, not everything Trussia says is a lie either but he's ...

... reflexively a liar and TYT is reflexively anti Clinton.

They don't have the benefit of the doubt when it comes to them

[JCanete]

22. Which is a good reason to absolutely be wary about any anti-Clinton stories. Their lens of

interpretation is going to have baked in assumptions. I think they try not to stray from the facts, but that doesn't mean their analysis should be taken in a vacuum.

Its a good thing that they don't try to pretend at objectivity. Fake objectivity is a far more insidious thing, and is one of the things I have problem with when it comes to our mainstream media. Nobody is capable of actually being objective.

16. They aligned with Greenwald and Assange. That pretty much told me everything.

20. Russia controls 20% of US uranium mining? I doubt this.

[Tobin S.]

23. The Washington Post knocked this down pretty good the other day.

For those who aren't up on the story.

To hear Sean Hannity tell it, the media is ignoring “what is becoming the biggest scandal — or, at least, one of them — in American history.”

Hannity is jumping waaay ahead of the facts. So is Breitbart News, which has been running misleading headlines like this: “FBI uncovers confirmation of Hillary Clinton's corrupt uranium deal with Russia.”

Brent Bozell, founder of the conservative Media Research Center, claims that there is “another coverup in the making.” And President Trump chimed in Thursday morning on Twitter.

New reporting this week by the Hill has, indeed, added a layer of intrigue to the sale of a uranium mining company to Russia's atomic energy agency, which was approved by the Clinton-led State Department and eight other U.S. government agencies. But the latest developments, as they relate to Clinton, are not as explosive as certain news outlets — eager to draw attention away from reporting on President Trump and Russia — would have you believe.

Let's break it down:
