" 'people' who were present said."

"four people present for his speech said."

A reporter using hearsay from some un-named "people" or "sources" AGAIN.

Reporter did not hear the speech himself to confirm.

I'd like to see the actual speech of what was actually said. Many "people" will make all kinds of interpretations/assumptions of what was said in a speech, particularly if they are trying to confirm their own bias.

Not saying it didn't happen as reported, but we've all seen plenty of this type of 2nd hand reporting leaving all objectively out the door, and spun to meet political narratives pushed constantly.
They were quotes from witnesses.

That’s how journalism worked since the beginning of time.

Learn what "hearsay" actually means.

oooh....cool...now do all the other media outlets that are also reporting the same story
"Now do all the other media outlets that are also reporting the same story"

All do what?

NBC reported this a week ago.

I'm simply commenting it's just another left wing news blog akin to Breitbart.

you're ignoring the content of the article and instead spinning
your wheels trying to discredit a single source when there are
plenty of other (reputable) outlets that are reporting the same
story

Anything to defend dear leader no matter how dishonest or absurd, just another day for Cult 45.

Isn't that par for the course here, for instance, if a Breitbart article is posted?

Answer truthfully.

it's par for the intellectually lazy or in cases when the only outlet
reporting the story is of questionable pedigree

why spend your time and energy trying to tear down a single outlet
when the story is being reported independently by numerous other
reputable sources?

answer truthfully!

Except there is usually no other reputable sources for the Brietbart tripe.
That's false.

randomly pulled stories from the front page of Breitbart:

The funniest thing is that you guys are taking the word of King Neocon about making decisions based on cash flow

LMAO

How much money has Bolton made off defense companies in his life?

Just pointing out the double standard.

If you take a look at PoliticsUSA it is indeed of questionable pedigree.

It's a left wing news blog with same rabid ilk as Breitbart, just from the other end.

PolitcsUSA even has a special area called Liberal Nation Rising.

https://lnr.politicususa.com/



Discerning individuals wouldn't be posting links from either source, as both sites exist for the grassroots purpose not to report news but to push a specific, narrow, viewpoint.

Plenty of legitimate, verfiable news stories on Breitbart too. That doesn't give them any clout either.

Also, normal people find phrases like "alternately-abled individuals" comical.

so instead of spinning your wheels on some stupid gotcha, take a moment
to see if and who else is reporting the story...?

I don't know...just a thought, I guess.

I already told you that story had been reported by mainstream news over a week ago.

Just a reminder.:)

Quit spinning yer wheels.

There's a difference between GrossDad and Squidley posting conspiracies and opinion articles from right wing tabloids and YouTube hacks, and a factual, witness corroborated news story.

Not for Trumptards, they actually believe infowars = NY Times.

after the fact...

if you had made that point while going through your stupid
left wing blog exercise then you'd probably seem a bit less
disingenuous than you do presently.

the irony of "quit spinning your wheels" while you're burning
rubber in this thread is delish.
