Shifted the convo from the Brokaw debacle, though.

Wow this is a big mistake and doesn’t help media’s case against fake news accusations at all. I should have known it was too good to be true.

Meh, vast majority of Americans have little understanding of technology.

The media is so anxious to “break news” about anything related to Trump that they have gotten so much wrong.

• NBC News falsely reported Trump's lawyer was wiretapped
• CNN falsely reported Trump's son colluded with WikiLeaks
• ABC News falsely reported Trump told Flynn to meet w/Russians during the campaign
• Bloomberg falsely reported Mueller issued subpoena targeting Trump allies

There is a reason the media is not trusted.

And yet, Trump is still a crook.

When you think about the sheer volume of news that is generated every single day now, it is surprising there aren't more mistakes. Also let's not forget Fox false reporting on the Seth Rich case.

Journalists have to be careful even when they are right.
CNN fired three reporters over their story that Anthony Scaramucci had met with Russian investors. Scaramucci graciously accepted CNN's apology. We later found out the story was accurate

It also could have been a catphising operation against Giuliani.

Unless it's from Fox News, right?

Definitely catphising, which is preferable in any event to catfisting.

Or more likely NBC was fed bad info — that is, disinformation.

It seems the SD is interested in the circumstances relating to how Cohen sold multiple buildings for cash — and for three times what he paid just three years earlier — on one day in 2014. Meanwhile Qatar purchased a $6.5M apartment in Trump World Tower and, like Ukraine, has stopped cooperating with Mueller.
