(51 posts)If one is looking for cheerleading, the politicusUSA is a fun read. This is not accepted as a serious source of information at DU?!?!?!
WTF?!?!?!?!
I don't criticize anyone that wants a pro-Hillary and Democratic Party spin for stoppin' by there and reading whatever... but there is nothing that even begins to approach journalism there. Cite if when you need a "pick-me-up" after a Dem has a bad day, but please don't insult our intelligence by pretending that this report is factual.
My comment is not meant to challenge Clinton -- there are reasons to say similarities with Powell exist, but there are also legit reasons to say there are differences in the situations.
But we don't accept BreitBart as the arbitrator of truth here, so why is a site that has been pro-Clinton and just as biased as anyone on the right held out as "proof".
Don't believe me? Then read PoliticusUSA daily for a while -- it is just another flavor of advocacy bloggin (NOTE: I didn't use the word "journalism" because when we allow it to degrade to cheerleading, we have no credibility when we call our the wingnuts).
