(98,883 posts)It really gets tiresome to try to point out the inaccuracies or incompleteness of Tabbi's stories.
While it could be argued that he makes a legitimate point, the fact that he leaves out their reasons, and instead prefers to characterize it with his own editorial bias, is standard Tabbi fare.
He does this all the time. At the beginning of the year he was critical of those who were concerned about Russian interference in the election. He said no one had provided actual evidence of an interference or collusion with the trump campaign, and in the same breath said because this is coming from the CIA, who "lied to us about Iraq", that is why we shouldn't believe it. Of course that isn't correct either. First, the WMD lie did not come from the CIA, but from the bush administration. Second, because of what happened in Iraq does not negate that their was or was not Russian interference. Those are mutually exclusive events. His reasoning is not sound.
Mr. Tabbi is not an objective reporter, and time and time again, he cannot resist but to frame a story based on his personal bias, which has a tendency to distort the things.
