SkyDekker 1,122 #101 January 13, 2017 Can you define what Fake News is? The report exists. The report was put together by a reputable former MI6 operative. An operative who appears to have worked for the FBI previously. The report is entirely unverified at this point. The US intelligence agencies deem the source reputable enough to start their own investigation. The report should never have been published by buzzfeed. But that doesn't make it fake news. Hence my question, how do you define fake news? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gowlerk 1,912 #116 January 13, 2017 QuoteI mused about this yesterday on this thread. Can't say I am surprised to read this. Few nations are going to trust in or believe in anything coming out of the Trump shit show. Who can blame them? Most Americans don't either. Even his supporters. Once a lying liar, always a lying liar. Or to paraphrase a great American, "the man makes the office, the office does not make the man".Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

wmw999 2,121 #123 January 14, 2017 Accuracy actually matters sometimes. That said, I find it hard to get too worked up about something that happened between consenting adults. Kind of like if someone were to, oh, have an affair or something. If it's true, the best thing to do is just say "yeah, so what? She's a professional and my wife is fine with it." Story mostly goes away. The Russians specialize in compromising information; that's why hiring people without embarrassing history or circumstances is part of getting a secret clearance. Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.
