When you say you liked a movie and your friend says "oh I hated that movie", do you take it as an opportunity to yell at them and say they've got to come up with reasons? If your goal is to defame all standard media and writing, and to only push ideologically-based "alternative media", it's the wrong site, you're going to get blowback. Most of us here are junkies about news media, and like ideological variety in our reading.</p> </div></div></div> Sat, 06 Jul 2019 19:13:29 +0000 artappraiser comment 269537 at http://dagblog.com I'll bash bullshit.

I said that wire services get some first reports wrong and that sometimes disinformation is deliberately fed to the wire services, sometimes by our own intelligent services, just like as happens in social media. Your quoted sentence above is essentially a semi-subtle but deliberate misrepresentation of what I argued so as to start out with a put-down that is completely unsupported. To put a somewhat finer point on it, it is a deliberate lie intended as one more smear.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:13px">Mate` says Meuller couches many of his allegations as things that might be true. </span></p> <ul><li> <blockquote> <p><span style="font-size:13px">"The report uses qualified and vague language to describe key events, indicating that Mueller and his investigators do not actually know for certain whether Russian intelligence officers stole Democratic Party emails, or how those emails were transferred to WikiLeaks."</span></p> </blockquote> </li> </ul><p><span style="font-size:13px">You counter with an article that says,”New study shows Russian propaganda <u>may</u> really have helped Trump. “May” as in <u>could have,</u> but not be proven.  Its author, Damien Ruck,  was among a group of researchers who won a Defense Department grant this year to study Russian disinformation campaigns in Georgia, Ukraine, and Belarus through March 2024. There is too much evidence for anyone to deny that researchers often incorrectly find what they go looking for or what their paymasters wish to hear. But, when Ruck concludes that Russian meddling <u>might</u> have helped Trump win there is no denying that he <u>might</u> be right.   The admittedly, By Ruck, unproven results indicated by his study is an indictment of Russian meddling. It does not address the veracity of or the internal contradictions in Meuller's report or whether Meuller's investigation went everywhere it should have gone or whether criticisms of his investigation and final report are legitimate.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-size:13px">Who is Yuri Chaika, Lulu - is this covered in the Mueller Report? </span></p> <p><span style="font-size:13px">I don’t know.

He said he didn't look at "collusion", being a non-legal term, that he found conspiracy with Russian non-goverment actors that was hard to prosecute as illegal partly due to obstruction, lies, coverups - and how far those relations went behind the scenes to the government (along with UAE, Saudi Arabia and Israel) remain locked up in the intelligence part of the report. Mueller noted if he could exonerate Trump he would, but he couldn't - so why does your shitty Putin @$$licking source act like he did? And why are you quoting this bullshit?
