    Just a simple error, nothing intentionally misleading about it.

    You lose a little credibility with each defense of Trump and his cronies. It's getting embarrassing, frankly.

    LOL. ABC truncates a quote, making it misleading, but I'm losing credibility?

    I love it when right-wing talk radio consumers complain about quotes being taken out of context.

    "What difference does it make?"

    Remember when Tony talked about Paulie Walnuts' nervous tick laugh? Told him he should get tested for Tourettes.

    That's what I hear when I see "LOL" from BaghdadFan.

    The Button Which Shall Not Be Named (the BWSNBN) works like a dream.

    ABC can't do that, no matter how badly it'd like to underline that Fleisher even suggesting another Republican dropped the ball is the news of the quote.

    Exactly. If you are going to combat Trump's bleats about the MSM it is necessary to be as near perfect as possible. Half measures are not acceptable.

    Don't worry. You don't have any left to lose.

    We talk about this all the time here, even in sports. I can see why people are reluctant to talk to the media. And if I put 30 seconds of thought into it, I could think of people here defending misleading representations, over and over again.

    Apparently, they often do it in personal messages.
