Russia vs the MSM

You didn't ask me for proof....you asked me how I know and I told you. So are you going to watch the hearings or stay in a state of willful ignorance? It's up to you...

Watch: Full Senate hearing on Russian hacking and US cybersecurity | Public Radio International

I watched the hearings.

What I saw was a bald politician make assertions with no concrete proof. This, by chance, would be the same bald politician that assisted in the lies about the NSA and WMDs in Iraq.

You still haven't posted any proof or evidence so I assume you have none.
 
Not only are you not able to choose which of the two sets of information I described in the OP is the most accurate, but you are also unable to identify why you do not qualify for the extra credit that I offered in the OP. The only thing you can do in regard to answering the question that the thread is about, or why you do not get the extra credit, or even in regard to this very post right here, is to sidestep, dodge, divert, invert, or otherwise evade, just as you have done in post 17. Getting a lefty to answer an OP is like trying to force a cat into a toilet, and you are putting up a pretty good struggle. I doubt that I will ever get you to simply respond with one of the two options listed for the question in the OP, and here is why. I have held lefty feet to the fire many times on many boards, and I have seen what happens when I hold lefty feet too close to the fire. The thread magically disappears at a minimum, and sometimes I get my wrists slapped, depending on which board I am on. This is not meant to target this board or any other board, it is just a law of physics. You can hold lefty feet and you can push them towards the fire, but the feet will NEVER reach the fire.

You didn't provide any information...that's the point you keep missing. So why can't you provide any examples or sources of Russian fake news for us to compare to MSM? In case you haven't noticed...your feet are being held to the fire to provide proof of your claims right now. But all you seem to do is dodge, sidestep, divert and evade your responsibility to back up your OP with credible evidence for us to compare. Your thread is big fail.

First of all, he wasn't a politician. Secondly...how do you know he didn't have proof? Third....I don't believe you watched the hearings for one second.

He might have proof but he sure as hell didn't present it. In my mind (and correct me if I'm wrong) it's important to show proof before you accuse a nuclear power of a very serious offense.
 
I'm not a fan of MSM either but - ffs - this thread is goddam bat**** stupid.
 
If you were looking for the best information to form the most educated decision about which candidate to vote into the oval office, which set of information would have been the most accurate? The MSM's, or the one that the MSM alleges that Russia presented? Please explain how this choice makes the information more accurate than the other.

Lefties, I am aware that your replies will automatically and by default work in favor of lefty agenda, the lefty media, and of course the lefty candidate, and this is fine. Just post why you picked this choice as being more accurate than the other. Remember that I am asking which set of information was "more accurate", not which one you dislike the most.

Extra credit to any lefty who can correctly respond to this post without dodging, diverting, inverting or evading.

Being that the MSM is reporting what the FBI, CIA, and NSA are saying I would say I trust the MSM. Besides Russia has been and still is heavily involved in their propaganda program. I will trust multiple US intelligence agencies of the Russians any day of the week.

You need a security clearance to see the proof. But this week a declassified version is going to be released to the public.

Like I said...your new messiah, Trump is already back peddling on his claim that the Russians didn't do it.

I don't know which is more scary with trumpgate's twitter, trump with security clearance or trump without it.

Especially based on his tweets since being briefed yesterday .

And if this evidence comes out and concretely and sufficiently proves that the Russians were involved in influencing our elections substantially, I'll be the first one to discuss what should be done next AGAINST Russia.

wait for the facts my good chum

You do that, pal.
 
when i expose your sock and you're banned i'll get "likes" which despite i don't care about in the least, is still worth more to me than your 'extra credit'

Awww...you'll get likes?! That's cute.

Bravo! Your reply was a little slippery, but you were actually able to recognize the two sets of information to choose from, and then you selected one of the two choices! Most lefties cannot do this.

Do you feel that the MSM did a good job covering all the lefty corruption of the dnc, the MSM themselves, podesta, Hillary, and the dnc, that wikileaks exposed?

Why Thank You, I think:roll:

In some cases yes in others not so much, really do not watch all that much MSM.
