This is why it's important to not let things like this go. Because her followers just ignore all the really outrageous things, and they will deny it ever happened, and then challenge you to find it. And Mensch tweets non-stop and re-tweets even more, so it can be hard to find things if you're looking for them weeks later. She deliberately buries things with re-tweets and sometimes even deletes.

Louise Mensch is a nut job. [View all] demmiblue Jul 2017 OP

Someone did and it was removed. n/t rzemanfl Jul 2017 #1

Oh my! demmiblue Jul 2017 #2

She was insisting Comey was a good guy and running a serious investigation pnwmom Jul 2017 #10

Louise Mensch reported on the Alpha Bank FISA warrant before the election. L. Coyote Jul 2017 #12

So that FISA server warrant has been confirmed? jmg257 Jul 2017 #39

That depends on what you mean by "confirmed" FBaggins Jul 2017 #40

HA true! This is several times that the server FISA warant was given as an example as something jmg257 Jul 2017 #45

You haven't been looking very hard. pnwmom Jul 2017 #64

That's true - thanks! Of course in March CNN was told there was no warrant, so... jmg257 Jul 2017 #65

Yes. But who told them isn't clear, and the previous sentence mentions a WH official. pnwmom Jul 2017 #71

It's called the "Jeane Dixon Effect" jberryhill Jul 2017 #77

The story was confirmed by the Guardian, the BBC, and McClatchy. n/t pnwmom Jul 2017 #63

And contradicted in March by CNN. nt jmg257 Jul 2017 #66

Failing to confirm isn't the same as contradicting. n/t pnwmom Jul 2017 #68

Ah good point! Sources vs sources I guess. jmg257 Jul 2017 #70

Her critics are awfully hysterical, their hair on fire as they demand DU'ers submit to their will. emulatorloo Jul 2017 #34

That is exactly how citizen journalism works Not Ruth Jul 2017 #18

I would at least partially disagree. I wouldn't have a problem if she at least stevenleser Jul 2017 #24

I was just watching a documentary, City of Ghosts, about industry award winning citizen journalists Not Ruth Jul 2017 #25

Most awards don't mean much. The salient question is, are you informing or misinforming. stevenleser Jul 2017 #42
