8. I'm not hearing a RW narrative from the legit news organizations...

and certainly not on MSNBC political talk shows.

I'm hearing the facts. I don't know who you all are watching and reading.

CNN
WaPo
NYT
NBC
MSNBC

This is how I know what the facts are. Adam Schiff and other leading Democrats are all over the talk shows. I've seen Chairman Cummings on a couple of them.

So I disagree. Not every article is going to go into detail, but they are all reporting the facts. That's how they've won Pulitzer Prizes in the past, and gained the respect of journalists and others throughout the country and world.

I'm sure that some have dropped the ball. But not most. They've been quite forward about making it clear that there IS evidence of "collusion" and "obstruction," but...... (insert details here).

It's easy to blame the media for the public choosing to watch/read the RW sources instead of legitimate news sources, or balanced programming, or an ignorant 1/3 of the public. Both sides can't be right. The RW claims the media is "left wing," and the left claims the media is "reporting RW myths." Maybe that means the media has gotten it right, if both sides blame them.

The article I posted was one among many. Do you read CNN? Why do you think Trump declares CNN an enemy of the people?
