(53,339 posts)They say they get inside knowledge and access. But they're shamelessly handing a megaphone to diehard partisans and paying them for it on the chance they'll get some news advantage in return.
The reality is that it's the everyday job of news reporters and producers to cultivate inside sources--no payment or megaphone required.

(365 posts)I loathe that Jason Miller too but Jeffrey Lord makes me scream in anger at the tv. I live for the day his traitor in chief is marched out of the people's house. I am convinced he spends 8 hrs a day jerking off to Nancy Reagan photos, 8 hrs a day licking his life-size cardboard cut-out of Cheetolini and the other 8 hrs on cnn lying to cover drumpf's ass. I loathe him beyond words...

(53,339 posts)Apparently he's going on TV to lie outrageously about the wonderfulness that is Trumpcare.
I haven't seen him on TV, but I found this from last year...
Meet Minnesota's Mini-Trump
Republicans are rallying behind Jason Lewis, a radio provocateur famous for racist and misogynistic rants who's running for Congress.
