Crunch time for politicians, Fox News, and CNN-NYT-led mass media

By David Singer - posted Friday, 1 November 2019

Steele says he used unverified information to support details about web company in dossier

The New York Times (NYT) reported on 19 April 2019:

But the release on Thursday of the report by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, underscored what had grown clearer for months - that while many Trump aides had welcomed contacts with the Russians, some of the most sensational claims in the [Steele] dossier appeared to be false, and others were impossible to prove. Mr. Mueller's report contained over a dozen passing references to the document's claims but no overall assessment of why so much did not check out.

Now the dossier - financed by Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee, and compiled by the former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele - is likely to face new, possibly harsh scrutiny from multiple inquiries.

The mass media may have missed out on what could possibly prove to be the biggest political scandal in America's history.

Crunch time is coming for politicians, Fox News and the CNN-NYT led mass media.
