      NYT Gives Trump His Excuse to Fire Rod Rosenstein https://www.emptywheel.net/2018/09/21/nyt-gives-trump-his-excuse-to-fire-rod-rosenstein/ … By this description, ZERO of the people accusing Rosenstein of acting erratically were actual witnesses to his actions.pic.twitter.com/XIajdwA08S

      So the NYT makes a headline out of descriptions "several" (which is, like, 2) people who only know the events thirdhand say, and then bury what Rosenstein and an actual witness say.

      Say, NYT, rather than treating thirdhand gossip as more reliable than actual witnesses, why not try to understand the scope of POTUS' Russia declassification order?

          Perhaps the sudden appearance of the story on the former is related to a defeat on the latter?

          Enabling Trump has been the NYT's growth strategy since November 9th, 2016.

          the fact that trump walked back the declassification request makes me think they talked him out of it by explaining there'd be info damaging to him in the release. the dumb nyts story let's trump get the damaging stuff out w/o exposing the pieces damaging to trump.

          After the Iraq War/domestic Spying fiascos, you’d think the NYT would be a little more cognizant of being used by an administration.
