CNN Dismisses Concerns in Memo, Lauds Reliability of Biased Sources for Dossier

"I mean, you can get good information from sources who come at you...with a bias...can't you?"

On CNN today, hysteria abounded as openly-biased pundits desperately attempted to dismiss concerns over the damning GOP-led House Intelligence Committee memo.

The report, which details corrupt and/or questionable components of the DOJ's investigation into potential Russia-Trump election collusion, sheds light on the treachery of Democrats and the innocence of Donald Trump. Hence, CNN is shaking in its left-wing boots.

The network's chief political analyst, Gloria Borger, floated perhaps the most ridiculous defense of the day. According to her, the left-wing bias of the dossier -- which was the basis for the Russia probe -- should be a non-issue because people routinely rely on biased sources for news.

Borger, crediting Shimon Prokupecz with the idea, admitted that “informants are not always as clear as the snow." Later, congressional Republican Mike Rogers confirmed:

"Remember, you're actually — if you're paying an informant to give you information in a criminal organization, trust me, that person is committing or has committed crimes prior to that in order to get there. So their veracity is always a little bit in question. That's why you would filter in other aspects of this, which they don't tell you that information." 

However, in Borger's view, Christopher Steele -- who collected information for the Russian dossier on behalf of Hillary Clinton -- was as good a source as any:

“So you want to say, well, Steele was dealing with Democrats or was paid by Democrats. I mean, you can get good information from sources who come at you with a — with a bias one way or another, can't you?"

Hmmm. If that were the case, why was the fact that Clinton had funded the dossier kept from view?

Unconcerned with issues of legitimacy, CNN Justice correspondent Evan Perez -- who has ties to dossier co-funder Fusion GPS -- dismissed any accusations of ulterior motives on the part of the FBI:

"[L]ook, there are some things here that probably will bother Americans about how this was done. But it's different from, you know, saying someone made a mistake from saying they were acting on a partisan point of view or trying to stop Donald Trump or trying to act for partisan purposes which I think is where the FBI really takes offense about what happened here. There may have been mistakes that were made by some people in leadership, but it wasn't necessarily for partisan purposes."

The mainstream media hate Donald J. Trump; and, as stated in The Art of War, the enemy of one's enemy is one's friend. Doubtlessly, over the coming days, the major network news organizations will be falling all over themselves to whitewash DOJ corruption, as the war against President Trump continues.
