Katy Tur outdid herself [View all]

Last edited Tue Apr 30, 2024, 05:17 PM - Edit history (1)

I posted a week or two ago that Tur asked a lawyer if cheato falling asleep would cause the prospective jurors to feel "empathy" for him. Of course the lawyer politely shut down her inane musings. Then yesterday she was basically called a representative for cheato by none other than Nancy Pelosi during a live interview, for which she was absolutely trashed on twitter.

This morning when the lawyer was going through how various cohorts of cheato's were testifying about the conspiracy to keep damaging news out of the media, she actually asked again if the jurors would feel sorry for him. The lawyer had no idea what she was talking about. According to the testimony, it was he and his cohorts who were breaking the law and engaging in catch and kill for political reasons. No one was plotting against him. Nothing unfair to cheato was happening by any stretch of the imagination. It was all negative info about him and the others who helped him. SO WHY IN GOD'S NAME would anyone feel sorry for him?

She is almost a parody at this point. Next up, when (and if) cheato is convicted, I expect her first question will be : But isn't this bad for Joe Biden?

Oh, edited to add that later when someone said that a member of cheato's family finally attended the trial, she immediately said something like it's not finally. It's only been a week! So her first instinct is definitely to defend him.
