[W:120]Mueller's office disputes BuzzFeed report that Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress

Re: Mueller Debunks Buzzfeed Story

Welp there goes Buzzfeed’s credibility. But anyone find it odd that mueller put out a statement? Have they ever done this after other reporting? I can’t recall. I don’t think they have, though. Very interesting.

I think I remember they did it one time before when it was reported that Cohen was in prague. I think they had no choice but to set the record straight.

But liberals had such high hopes.


Bless their hearts.

Re: Mueller Debunks Buzzfeed Story

I agree because whoever leaked the information is giving out classified seal investigation information
which pretty much ruins the investigation in total.

All I can say is there goes CNN's 8 o'clock newscast.

Short straw poll: who has called Mueller's investigation a witch hunt or called Mueller crooked or something similar but now believe Mueller's spokesperson?

Re: Mueller Debunks Buzzfeed Story

Yes it is both. it is a tabloid whacktard site.

Overall, we rate Buzzfeed Left-Center Biased due to story selection that tends to favor the left and Mixed for factual reporting based on poor sourcing and a few failed fact checks

they are basically a lib trash site similar to daily kos or mediamatters.

Thanks. I seemed to remember it being mentioned before. Sounds to me like one of those Breitbart/Daily Caller/InfoWars kind of places. How did their BS get picked up on Mainstream media? They should know better. They hear something they want to hear and just run with it these days.

I miss Walter.

A good time to put up the media credibility chart again. (Remember, STAY AWAY from from the bottom corners of the chart unless you, too, want to be a 'tard.)

How do you think the two separate things relate?

He couldn't allow Congress to shoot themselves in the foot. They were going to start an investigation, based on the Buzzfeed report. :lamo

Re: Mueller Debunks Buzzfeed Story

Only if those reports stated Mueller's "team" as the source - few alleged leaks of that nature have surfaced.

I missed that. You are absolutely correct.

If they're not credible investigators, and are dishonest leakers, then why should this statement from them be believed?

Lol. So true. And it’s kinda funny all the trumpettes are acting like mueller exonerated trump or something. Comical. We are still in the same place we were yesterday, which is that we don’t know what Mueller’s report will produce.

If you can't figure it out, not sure explaining it will help you.

Not me. I think the statement is too vague to work with.

(But I've never praised Mueller)

Re: Mueller Debunks Buzzfeed Story

I like how Mueller will correct the media when they misreport something significant about the investigation. It lends a bit more believability to the reports that AREN’T corrected.

That was an excellent read!

In this particular case, I think the Mueller team was worried about people getting out over their skis and planning next steps, based on something being true that really isn't in the bullseye. People have been running a little too fast with this story, which is indicative of the hunger for the truth.

Those that think this is a wholesale repudiation are also out over their skis. Its not! Mueller's office only cautioned us as to the accuracy of the Buzzfeed report; they did not refute it.

This is a very complicated investigation involving a lot of pieces, numerous allegations and multiple jurisdictions. Though we are all anxious to have this resolved, it needs to be resolved correctly and completely.

Your idiotic chart has CNN and the New York Times exactly center.


Do you really want to peddle that nonsense?

Hey Poliscixtina!! Happy New Year

another posted made comment that when the Reports state that the source is in relation to the Special Council or its completed portion of investigation then they provide a correction. Many of the OUTSIDE Reports from other entities do not indicate relations to the special council.

Makes sense to me, that someone is saying its coming from them and they clarify its NOT. So its from an unnamed unreliable source....

Some of you might remember this headline yesterday by Buzzfeed:
