‘Beyond [“BuzzFeed”]: The 10 Worst, Most Embarrassing U.S. Media Failures on the Trump/Russia Story’



Glenn Greenwald has a superb The Intercept piece, Beyond BuzzFeed: The 10 Worst, Most Embarrassing U.S. Media Failures on the Trump/Russia Story, from Sunday [January 20, 2019], in which he not only writes about but also highlights numerous false reports over the last two-plus years of propaganda commonly referred to as RussiaGate.





Notes:

  • Tomorrow [Tuesday, January 22, 2019] are the nominations for the 91st Academy Awards (which will be broadcast live by ABC on Sunday, February 24, 2019). In an upcoming blog topic, I may write and post something which relates. 
  • I acknowledge that Sunday [January 20, 2019] marked the 10th anniversary and the 2nd anniversary of Barack Obama [D–Illinois] and Donald Trump [R–New York] having officially become the 44th and 45th presidents of the United States. I could write about Trump, in particular, as if I was assessing his presidency. But, in terms of policy, I have nothing good to say about him other than being appreciative of his not having launched the United States into more wars—so far—to the level experienced by Obama. That is not really something to impressed by. It does say something about how low the U.S.’s standards are nowadays.
