WATCH CNN LIE
CNN "journalists" parrot each other as they falsely claim Natasha Bertrand's initial reporting the Iran strike leak included the facts that it was a "low confidence" and "preliminary" report.
Kate Bolduan proclaims: "...about it being low confidence. CNN reported on all of on all of this. I was looking back just to make sure that we had it. All throughout the reporting process, CNN had reported that it is preliminary..."
"It's in there," Sara Sidner smugly added.
NO IT WAS NOT, as this thread will prove. Using the Wayback Machine, you can see that the initial report pushed by Bertrand on Tuesday does not have the words "low confidence" nor "preliminary."

The only times the word "low" is even used was White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt telling CNN the leak came from "an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community," and the assertion that the bombs "would likely not successfully penetrate Isfahan’s lower levels."

The View's ABC chief Washington correspondent Jon Karl to keep the liberal ladies on the rails while they discuss the U.S's strikes on Iran.
Moderator Joy Behar huffs about Trump not waiting 2 weeks.
Karl notes that it was a "head fake" and that the Iranians "were not engaging at all" with peace talks. Behar serious questions why Trump didn't tell the Iranians he was going to bomb their nuclear weapons enrichment facility:

Behar: So, why did he keep it a secret for the surprise version?

The View falsely claims it's "misinformation" that the Minnesota shooter had "Democratic political ties." Ignoring the fact that the shooter was appointed by Gov. Walz to one of his advisory boards, co-host Sara Haines whines: "If anybody watching right now is having a debate over what the background of this person's political views are, you're the problem."
She also huffs: "Some of the most emboldened people sit behind keyboards and say the nastiest, craziest thing." Meanwhile, she sits on TV and says the most nasty and craziest things.

Megyn Kelly presses Jake Tapper on his very obvious and very willful role in the cover up President Biden's cognitive decline.
Tapper deflects, puts it on his sources and the existential threat of Trump, and filibusters.
Eventually, he claims he feels "tremendous humility" and notes his shouting match with Lara Trump: "She saw something I didn't see at the time...I own that." Kelly grills Tapper: "When you sat with him again...You didn't ask him about it. You didn't follow up on the fact that he was falling up the stairs, he was losing his train of thought regularly, that he was slurring, that he was incomprehensible, that he was getting lost in the White House lawn. You sat right across from him and you asked none of that."
"That's true, but I did ask him about this age," Tapper sheepishly admitted. He further defends his journalistic malpractice by saying: "It's not like I was asking him his favorite movie or his favorite color."

Whoopi condescendingly directs her hate toward White House Press Secretary @karolineleavitt for denouncing wokeness. Shouting at her: "This young lady whose - this is her first job, I would like her to do a little homework. She said something yesterday that pissed me off...Let me explain something to you because without that wokeness, you might not have that job!...The wokeness was put in place for a reason!...Please please stop using that phrase to talk about because you don't understand what you're saying!" Whoopi, who tried to scare people to vote for Kamala by falsely claiming Trump was going to redistribute white spouses from interracial marriages, says she's worried that the expanded White House press pool will be "state-run news" and would "feel a lot better" if there were "standards people have to meet."

I'm inside the Bay County, Florida Courthouse for Day Ten of the $1 billion defamation trial of Zachary Young v. CNN. You can watch the proceedings live with the video stream below in the quoted post or follow along with my live posts in the thread below. I don't think it's going to be a hung jury.
Their demeanor last night wasn't that of a jury bitter and angry at each other, indicative of a hung jury. They seemed to be more hangry and stayed well past what they were asked once they were promised food.

Opening arguments begin with one of Young's lawyers, Kyle Roche telling the jury about how CNN approached telling the story about Young.
He says CNN ignored the facts told to them about how Young ran his extraction operations in Afghanistan.

Comedian Whitney Cummings takes shots at CNN while on CNN:
"I'm now playing, you know, like 3000 seat theaters, which is about the viewership of CNN these days." She actually mentions Hunter Biden's laptop and his obsession with hookers:
"The Dallas Cowboys cheerleader doc showed the girls being treated horribly underpaid, crying. I thought I'd open a video on Hunter Biden's laptop."

Sunny Hostin touts some of the heinous comments celebrating the assassination of Brian Thompson: "Isn't that something? I think it's reflective about how people are feeling about their healthcare."
She then calls for universal healthcare. Sara Haines points out that killing people is not how to effect good change: "The sheer stupidity that people would turn to violence and think they're effectuating change is the most ghastly part of this."
Adding: "You're not dude. You're not going to change anything."

Whoopi Goldberg, who has not served America in any way, mocks Pete Hegseth's name and ignores his 20 years of decorated military service which included combat tours, and his years of advocating for veterans. Despite Hegseth's decades of military service, Whoopi claims he "clearly does not know anything about the military."
None of the cast seems to be aware of his service, but their ignorance doesn't keep them from mouthing off.

The View praises Kamala's late concession speech.
"She's even inspiring in defeat. Like, the things she said about we don't stop fighting," Haines boasted.
She claims the only person to "pull off" election denying is Trump. Meanwhile, The View denied the 2016 election. Joy Behar rages at the red wave: "We lost the Senate, the Supreme Court, the executive branch, the House is on the verge of going to him. It's pathetic! There are no checks and balances."
She bashes America for not electing the "completely intelligent qualified woman."

The View blames Trump for Biden calling his supporters "garbage."
"He owns that language. He owns that rhetoric because he is the one that introduced it," Sunny Hostin proclaimed. Hostin whines that being upset with calling Trump supporters "garbage" is " gaslighting to the tenth degree," and complains about it being "co-opt[ed].""I hope Americans recognize what's happening," she adds.

The View falsely claims Trump himself made the joke about Puerto Rico being trash at MSG, not the comedian.
"Puerto Rico is trash? We are Americans, Donald Trump," Sunny Hostin proclaimed. "We voluntarily serve disproportionately high in the military while you have bone spurs." Ana Navarro continues to falsely claims Trump himself made the jokes: "he didn't just make jokes about Puerto Ricans. He made jokes about blacks...He made a vile joke about Latinos..."
She then appeals to identity politics, calling people to "vote your identity."

Ta-Nehisi Coates suggests he's not above taking part in an October 7-style attack:
"And I grow up under that oppression and that poverty and the wall comes down. Am I also strong enough or even constructed in such a way where I say this is too far, I don't know that I am." Trevor Noah says he was "angry" at CBS's Tony Dokoupil for saying Coates sounded like an extremist. Noah then compares Gaza to the American Revolution: "If you remove America's history...then it's like, yeah, those people who fought against the British, they were terrorists."

Sunny Hostin claims the KKK is after her and trying to round her up: "And the KKK is going to find me and round me up with every other black person...That is my lived experience." Joy Behar says Trump's entire base is racist:
"My point is he was really working for his base right now. That was to signal his base...It was like an opportunity to say to all the racists out there, see, see what I'm saying here. See what I did there?"

"It's so depressing....I think he's going to drop out."
Joy Behar is disheartened by top Democratic Party leaders telling Biden to get out of race.
"The COVID in a way is like a good way for him to get out because he needs this time to show how strong he is and he's sick..." Sunny Hostin doesn't like the behind-the-scenes meetings urging Biden to get out are being leaked to the media.
"It's his decision to make. It seems to me that these...meetings are being leaked to force his hand."
But Biden still has her vote because Kamala is his VP.
