re: #169 piratedan

c’mon now…

what I’m talking about is how the story that the Trump campaign was in cahoots with the Russian government, the money ties that were omnipresent, the financial relationships that were long established and in place…

now, compare what reported about those stories with the amount of column spaces that were allocated to the Clinton e-mail “scandal”

someone is making that decision, I think it’s certainly acceptable to find out if someone was paid to make that decision.

If not, fine, we can readily chalk it up to CDS, but I do believe its fair for the question to be asked and determined if true.

As it happens, it is not illegal for writer to write a series of one-sided stories. It is also not illegal to pay a writer to write a story. It is not even illegal for a foreigner to pay a writer to write a story.

If you have an honest publisher or editor, the proper response in finding out a writer is subverting your news outlet is to fire that person.

On the issue of Hillary Clinton and the endless E-mails, that was pushed long before she announced she was going to run for office. Do we go after all the writers that wrote about that story, or just the ones who wrote a bunch of articles about it? How many articles is too many articles? Jail for ten, a fine for five, no crime for one?

As much as I despise how that story took off, I do not want writers placed in the position of having to wonder if “this is the article that gets me put in jail, so I better not write it.”
