    This isn't the first time the mainstream media had intentionally altered facts and more to benefit Democrats or damage Republicans, and it won't be the last.  It IS one more reason to not trust what is said by the mainstream media.


    “A spokeswoman for the Department of Justice is accusing NBC's Chuck Todd of deliberately editing a clip of Attorney General William Barr to cast him in a negative light.

    "Very disappointed by the deceptive editing/commentary by @ChuckTodd on @MeetThePress on AG Barr’s CBS interview," DOJ spokeswoman Kerri Kupec tweeted Sunday. "Compare the two transcripts below. Not only did the AG make the case in the VERY answer Chuck says he didn’t, he also did so multiple times throughout the interview."

      I am shocked beyond words to hear that politicians, particularly ones of the Democrat persuasion, would ever lie to us.  What is this world coming to when you can't trust an elected politician(s) that are more concerned with growing their political power and padding their pocket book than in doing their job?

      The sky is falling and we are doomed for sure.  Woe to us all.  sad

      I say this is nothing new and hopefully NBC's Meet the Press will reap the rewards it deserves for this.

    So, I am suppose to believe that Fox, brietbart or the Drudge Report have any more credibility?

    Is that what the Right call fair and balanced media reporting?

    I certainly do not trust anything your guys have to say, so there has to be a common source objective enough for both of us.

      I don't believe anything put out by any media until I verify it with multiple sources. 

      Drudge Report doesn't write stories, it is simply a website that provides stories from other media.
