TV folks are saying that one thing it describes, is how the people who faked the "Russian dossier" on Trump, actively went from news agency to news agency, trying to get them to publish it.

We knew that, but they also kept quoting more and more of the dossier, following their mentor Herr Goebbels' adage that if you tell a big enough lie often enough, people will start to believe it, and it will become The Truth. TV announcers are referring to this as "circular reporting".

More to come.

Again -- why take their word for the content -- why don't they just post it online.

This is ridiculous.

TV announcers are now saying that the fake dossier was one of the documents used to get the FISA court to authorize surveillance on Donald Trump's campaign.

That's a no-no, Demmies. It is VERY illegal to use false information in court, to influence their decision on warrants or anything else.

I wonder who made the decision to do that?

Really. I don't want the Washington Examiner to tell me what to think. Release the damn thing and let us decide for ourselves. That they aren't is telling.

Aren't you at least wanting to see for yourself what the memo says.

All of a sudden you all are so trusting of the media -- this is hilarious.
