    The thing is, "many sides" is already part of the news junkie lexicon at this point. It's an inexcusable error.

    Oh yeah. It's practically a meme. If you follow the news, even tangentially, you know he said "many sides".

    So, how does the Times get this wrong?

    But, it is because they think they know what happened. They think they remember what was said/what happened.

    Confirm it. This shit happens all the damn time, and is inexcusable in an age of Google, when it would take one minute to confirm.

    Great. Now we have to wade through three pages of the New York Times' "all sides/many sides" so YF can push the discussion away from his Nazi president.

    Right wing media and the guy you voted for for President have said over and over and over again that Hillary gave 20 percent of our uranium to our Russians. They have been undoubtedly been corrected on this matter again and again and again.

    So how do they get this wrong, and how do you manage to never, ever call them out on it?

    And here comes "Actually, it's about ethics in journalism." Surprised it took two days.

    In fairness, this is first and foremost, ostensibly at least, a journalism message board.

    Public service announcement: A third person recommended this thread on Facebook. One of y'all fucked up.

    I raised it, not @YankeeFan.

    How Trump is covered is very important, I think. Can't just hand him material.

    must be disenfranchised. All the burger joint gigs going to the brothers.

    Time to break out the "Maybe hate is what we need" clip of Trump calling for the execution of five young black men who turned out to be innocent.

    These people marginalized themselves.
