FFS, are they both sides-ing again? It's not "leaders of all stripes", it's the leaders of the fucking GOP, all of them. The Democrats aren't lying. Pelosi, Schumer, Harris, Booker, Klobuchar, Duckworth et al. aren't lying. They're the ones telling the truth. They are the ones refusing to lie.

the NYDN seems to have been reality based for as long as I've seen their covers posted on DU.

Maybe they're just "all stripes" within the gops for putin?

I was surprised they got that much in - probably bothsidery was the price. Not that I endorse it, I am figuring out what happened.

This stands as a huge media discouragement of voting, really.

Democrats, it's true, may have exaggerated a little here and there -- but outright lies? Does this tabloid mention any? Jesus, the GOP lies with every breath, deliberately misrepresenting the world, refusing to be held accountable for anything. GOP spokes creatures are on TV every day blaming the crash of 2008 on a man who was not, repeat was not, in office when it occurred. Even today, the grumbly little pecker-sniffs are blaming the Dems for the shut down, blaming the dead children for dying, and poo-pooing Trump's egregious lies to the military. Somehow, someway, these pathetic prevaricators are going to blame Obama and Clinton for the rocky down turn that Wall Street is taking as the year stumbles and staggers to a close. And let's not forget what the Part of Liars did to distort and steal elections in Florida and Georgia, as well as the debacle in North Carolina where the cheating, the criminal cheating, was so blatant that even the State election board had to call foul and refuse to certify the election.

"All Stripes" my arse. The Daily News was always a sensationalist tabloid, but it was fun for awhile watching it stand in opposition to the Murdoch Post. No both tabloids can go to hell, the same hell as the Nat'l Enquirer.
