28. So a pundit's INTERPRETATION of the Jan. 6 report dumps on a reporter's work?

People have to stop using the Fox "idea" of journalism. Which is exactly what's happening with this "story". That whole hillreporter.com story is a piece of garbage.

"While Haberman has written frank pieces portraying Trump as he is, she also has been generously lenient when a reprimand was in order. She's as equally guilty of whitewashing a lot of damning evidence about Trump while holding back information to use to sell her book about Trump, which was released in September."

So where are all the examples of her "leniency"? Guess what. There are none.

How many people in this thread have read her book "Confidence Man"? I've written about it elsewhere on this site. It was a deep examination into Trump's history. No, it's not a Fox slander-and-go work, and it's not a whitewash but a very intelligent look at him.

The OP is typical Fox slander-and-run crap. We have more smarts than the Fox/MAGAT idiots to believe this junk. This is the type of crap they do. We shouldn't sink to their level. And this thing does.
