The New York Times suddenly made a major revision to a supposed bombshell piece late Sunday concerning a resurfaced allegation of sexual assault by Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh -- hours after virtually all 2020 Democratic presidential candidates had cited the original article as a reason to impeach Kavanaugh.
The update included the significant detail that several friends of the alleged victim said she did not recall the supposed sexual assault in question at all. The Times also stated for the first time that the alleged victim refused to be interviewed, and has made no comment about the episode.
The only first-hand statement concerning the supposed attack in the original piece, which was published on Saturday, came from a Clinton-connected lawyer who claimed to have witnessed it.
The Times piece by Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly, adapted from their forthcoming book, asserted that a Kavanaugh classmate, Clinton-connected nonprofit CEO Max Stier, "saw Mr. Kavanaugh with his pants down at a different drunken dorm party, where friends pushed his penis into the hand of a female student."
The Times did not mention Stier's work as a Clinton defense attorney, or Stier's legal battles with Kavanaugh during the Whitewater investigation, and simply called him a "respected thought leader."

The Goebbels Media strikes out again.
Trump has exposed and broken the insane Democrats and their Goebbels Media wing.
Oh noz! A news source corrected a story!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How dare they!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know, your news sources don't care about facts, so they do not bother to correct their stories, but that is why regular media is better than the stuff you use.

Thats a rather huge 'correction.' In fact, if the 'correction' was part of the original story, there is no story at all. Why do you defend this sort of crap?Oh noz! A news source corrected a story!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How dare they!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The media that the OP cited NEVER does that.
So, it must have come as a shock!

Uh, I think "Oh, by the way, the person whom we claimed was victimized by a SCOTUS Justice in fact has no memory of the event" is a pretty BFD, in regards to this story. False stories, like this one, always run ahead of their corrections, and that's been the story of the entire, idiotic, lurid, disgusting mess around accusations against Kavanaugh.
This would sort of be like "[Insert Whomever Is The Democrat Candidate in 2020 here] RAPES CHILDREN*"
It turns out that we knew at the time there was no evidence for this claim. We apologize for the oversight, but you should still give us full props for self-critical honesty because we are saying it now.
How in the everloving f*** an entity that looks on itself as a "Media" organization like the Times can run this story without bothering to find out whether or not the alleged victim even thinks it happened....
....well, it should be astonishing. But it isn't, anymore :-/
You know, as a Conservative who loathes what Trump has done to the GOP and the "Conservative" movement writ large, and who gets into arguments with Trump fans on a regular basis, it sure would be a lot easier to push back on Trumpkin claims about the media if the media didn't keep validating them.
Right, accept that FOX and Hannity would just continue pushing the strory for months after it had been discredited and far right posters here would go along with it.
Seth Ritch, anyone?

One story about a Democrat operative murdered which has gone unsolved. And is surrounded by odd circumstances. Can you provide a story with flat out false reporting on par with say:
2-plus years of Russian Collusion? A total farce.
O’Donnell’s Deutsche Bank Belly Flop from 35,000 feet?
The parade of Kavanaugh lying wenches... and Ford’s lawyer admitting it was due to his plausible abortion vote?
The endless lie about what he did not say in Charlottesville.
And as a quick summary of the train of deceit...

86... a fitting number for the Goebbels Media.
That is a false story related to Trump... every 11.5-days!!! As he has been in office 968 days.*
Now... what was it you wanted to say about the latest smear by your Goebbels Media?

And then there's Pizzagate. Still going strong in certain right wing circles. You guys live and breath lies and smears.

Kamala Harris calling for Kavanaugh's impeachment based on an accusation that the victim doesn't remember. If someone shoves a dick in your face, you're going to remember. Doesn't matter how drunk you are.
This is blatant partisanship on Harris's part - pandering to the dumbest part of her base. Disgusting. She also supported Jessie Smollet. This woman was a prosecutor? Give me a break.
Yes, I would like a cheese and pepperoni and two ten year olds to go please. Do you deliver? :roll::shock:

If you get it right on page one today, there is no need to correct it or apologize next week on page 19B.
I'm sick of the print first, retract later, school of journalism.
