[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She worked for Faux News for years. Nothing unbiased about her reporting[/quote]

Find a story - or even a tweet - she has written that is not accurate.  [/quote]

No problem. Found a couple just off top of mind.

The Snopes article said that Herridge said that Foxnews is takingn a "hard look" at this tweet.  She did not state that the tweet was factual. She used the word "seems."   She made it clear that it was early reporting. Most of the Snopes article addressed Hannity.

And, what is wrong with her tweet about Grenell?

If this is the best you can do, she must be one of the best reporters.  Certainly, all those people at NYT and CNN who reported the accuracy of the dossier are not anywhere close to her league.[/quote]

Nuance isn’t your thing, is it? These weren’t the “best I could do.” They were two things that sprung immediately to mind because she’s such a biased journalist.

On the first, you said find an inaccuracy. Why was she speculating at all? That wasn’t factual. Her use of the word “seems” underlies that.

On the second, the “unmasking” tweet was an end-run around editorial process. It was devoid of context, notably that these “unmasking” events are super common and there was nothing unusual about it. Yet she let it hang out there in a tweet to suggest scandal. Had she reported it for CBS, she would have been required to put it in proper context.

I am not going to get any more of these for you because I don’t respond to sea lion trolls. But there are plenty of examples. [/quote]
