We know objective news reporting and coverage died a long time ago. It’s not coming back anytime soon, if ever. And that’s a terrible shame because a free, open, and democratic people deserve better. Great piece Sharyl. If only there were thousands more like you, we’d all be better for it.
Plus the Truman show play book, Yellow Cake CIA agent outed, drunken red solo cups, anonymous RINOs say xyz, HoaxBlowers.
Also, IF this was such a bigly breech putting lives at risk, isn’t Goldberg and The Atlantic the guilty party here for not reporting it at the time of the Chat to the Chat-ers?
🥚🥚🥚actly, 👍. Plus it is a pattern now. ICE raid leaks by a DHS “accidentally” including a journalist on an email chain.
Seems like NSA-DOGE could use Grok to plow through Goober$Mint Contacts to Journalists and follow the Leaks Trails. Oh…wait, … that and the money laundering trails is why the War on Elon-DOGE…hmmmm. 🤣
Has there been any additional investigation to determine how The Atlantic’s writer was in on that Signal call? I’ve read that “his name was ‘mis-attributed’ to the phone number,” but that is all I’ve seen so far. If he was a plant, who planted him?
You forgot the part on the “Signal” breach that a staffer whose wife was a long time DEMOCRAT LEGAL OPERATIVE was the one who added Jeffery Goldberg’s name to that email chain!
A place to start unwinding the corruption in mass media might be to take the money out of the news. Kennedy’s idea to join the rest of the countries around the world that have banned pharmaceutical advertising could be a start. But I can see someone made a bad error on this Signal thing so they’re doing damage control I suppose. However, maybe it’s just me but I don’t see what’s called Conservative MSM going off the rails as much as Leftist MSM does. Others do. I get that. But myself not so much. To me the Left’s Media is far more coordinated, unified-messaged, networked and better funded. The far left that seems to have completely taken over the Democratic Party has turned that political party into something a lot more akin to a cult of some kind and the Left media has been absorbed in it. I don’t know what you do about it. There’s been some leadership changes at the FCC that are being fought by those being replaced. Everything’s a struggle. Well, nobody said it was going to be easy.
"SignalGate" is another, never-ending, operation to discredit Trump officials like Tulsi and Hegseth who are a direct threat to the influence and propaganda of the unelected all-powerful intel community. Said community only has power because people believe the message. We no longer believe them.
We know that Russia hasn't been a direct threat to anyone since 1991 and they can't have that. I give a bad guy like Putin far more credibility than Mary McCord, Anyd McCabe, John Brennan, Clapper, Comey. Any of the Blob.
Trumps Cabinet is perhaps the most credible in our history. Listen to them and nobody else.
I have two "what if's:" 1) What if Goldberg was already on a list that got pulled over from Biden era Signal groups? Was Biden's people feeding him selective information? This, all while thinking he was eavesdropping?
2) What if the Trump team was "catfishing" him to see if he would publish what he believed to be State Secrets? Might that put him in jeopardy of criminal charges ala Julian Assange?
Thank you for reminding us of this history of security breeches and the failure of the previous justice system to do anything about it, as well as the media's failure to point it out.
I will always be grateful for the years I've listened to, watched, read and/or followed the likes of Rush Limbaugh, John Stossel and Sharyl Attkisson, who were always smart, smartly vicious, informative, intuitive and beyond truthful (except for Rush, who was a riot, using humor and absurdity to prove his points and he did it well). I don't know how well I practiced my critical thinking skills that Sharyl often mentions, but those three persuaded me to question everything anybody claims as truth. Oh, and Wikipedia can go to hell because Sharyl's the best.
What is baffling is that our top government officials use a public app. With the $7T we spend every year we can’t develop our own secure messaging system?
The fact that I had seen nothing of the context of Crockett's comment, nor do I know whether her claim about what she meant can actually be supported by that context or if it is just an excuse, reinforces your point that the media deliberately draws focus to insignificant issues and ignores issues that really matter.

The best commentary on this nothing burger by far. Thank you.
Probably the best, realistic post made.

The timing issue does draw suspicion, for sure.

Source?
Internet attributions to Lara Loomer. That too needs three independent source verification.
Check the guys marriage license!
Unbelievable. Strange marriages in DC, for sure. Sleeping with the enemy? Or, maybe it's a way to diversify: they do well no matter who's in power.

Spot on both what if’s
Goldberg is known for putting stories out that on the backside later come out as NOT True but damage is already done

So is the “news” agency that called the riots caused by BLM and Antifa “mostly peaceful”?

This. "Until the news refocuses on a mission of informing the public, the media are just pawns in scandal-driven political play."
In that case, never seems like the best-case outcome.

Very good analysis. Thanks for your reporting.
These days I think of the "media" as the DNC Press Office.
thanks for your fantastic reporting!
