Official: Some Clinton emails 'too damaging' to release

[Crossbones]

I apologize if you think “grow up” is uncharitable. It seems to me childish to discount a news network for things reported there unless they are not true. Offer some examples of this and I will consider. And Fox does report on misbehavior of republicans. Guess you did not know that as you probably do not listen to Fox. But they are the top in ratings of the cable news networks. So some of us do not agree with your assessment of Fox.

I don’t find it ‘childish’ to discount a story from a news agency with a heavy political slant claiming a scandal in the opposition when the story lacks named sources and has not been collaborated by other news agencies.

Of course, unlike the boy that cried wolf, Fox News has nothing to fear from being wrong. It’s supporters will simply claim a cover-up.

The problem is, the middle class is and always has been a myth. Nobody really knows what the middle class is.

Or poor would be middle class in most countries in the world

So which networks do you believ are reputable?

And the middle class would be the rich in most countries in the world.

Economists have had a fairly clear definition of it for a very long time.

Most of which doesn’t have a lot to do with Hilary…

Which economist has defined the middle class?

Do some research; it is not in the least hard to find.

Shall we get back to the Clinton emails?

Which scandal mentioned by Fox are you claiming hasn’t been corroborated?

This is not just a Fox story.

Ha, thats the HILLARY right wing conspiracy line. According to her of late its growing and been on-going since the 90s Weighing in from France with fervor? Totally neutral in the matter.

Let me get this straight, so Hillary is a victim? 150 FBI agents on the case and she’s a victim???

Steve Pomerantz, who spent 28 years at the FBI, and rose from field investigative special agent to the rank of assistant director, the third highest position in the Bureau.

“They (the FBI) do not do security reviews,” Pomerantz said. “What they primarily do and what they are clearly doing in this instance is a criminal investigation.”

Pomerantz emphasized to Fox News, “There is no mechanism for her to be briefed and to have information about the conduct, the substance, the direction or the result of any FBI investigation.”

Separately, an intelligence source familiar with the two prongs of the ongoing FBI probe, stressed to Fox that the criminal and national security elements remain “inseparable.” The source, not authorized to speak on the record, characterized Clinton’s statement “as a typical Clinton diversion… and what is she going to say, “I’m 95 percent sure that I am going to get away with it?”

Fox recently learned that one of the FBI’s senior agents responsible for counterintelligence matters, Charles H. Kable IV, is working the Clinton case, another indicator the intelligence source said that the FBI probe is “extremely serious, and the A-team is handling.”

In short: Clinton needs to find a WAY better answer to questions about her speaking fees than “that’s what they offered.” And soon.

In other words, you don’t know and cannot back up your claim. I would suggest you not make claims that you cannot back up.

 

[stinkcat_14]

Yes, it’s the topic.

If people would stop making unsubstantiated claims it would be easier to stay on topic.

Well, count me in on that. I said I wouldn’t post without a link anymore.

None by themselves. Every news agency makes mistakes and often times there is a political slant or poor journalistic practices taking place. An FBI investigation taking place, which has been reported by many outlets and that charges are impending has been reported by one. I believe that an FBI is investigating and I don’t believe charges are about to be filed.

Perhaps that network has better sources or maybe some of the others don’t want to delve further into it. Time will tell.

Perhaps. Perhaps they have low journalistic standards and are more concerned about getting clicks on their website and ratings on their show. Time will tell.

I also have no doubt that the FBI is investigation, but I have doubt that any charges will ever be filed for several reasons. And, as has been said by others and also by me in other posts, time will tell.

I also agree with you about the various news stations.

As I recall, the imminency of the charges was offered as speculation by the pundit, not as a fact from their source(s). ** Fox didn’t claim facts that contradict your own position.**

Ah, I see. So when Sean Hannity goes on his show on Fox News saying that sources say that charges are imminent, I should not take that as factually correct because it’s not Fox News’ position despite it being told on a Fox News show by a Fox News employee.

They like to muddy the waters, don’t they?
