FBI has not contacted dozens of potential sources in Kavanaugh investigation​

I'll give you credit if you can spot the difference in the titles of NBC and Reuters.

'cept the titles don't change the facts. NBC uses loaded words , but the reporting is the same.

NBC News – Bias and Credibility​

LEFT-CENTER BIAS​

These media sources have a slight to moderate liberal bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appeals to emotion or stereotypes) to favor liberal causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information but may require further investigation. See all Left-Center sources.

• Overall, we rate NBC News Left-Center biased based on story selection and word choices that moderately favor the left and High for factual reporting due to proper sourcing and a reasonable fact check record.

nope.

The Washington Post is no more reliable than the Enquirer.
They're a mouthpiece for the DNC.

That Kavanaugh, such the Lady Killer......

Remember ladies. Benedict Donald's Court started the whole take away your rights thing. To them you're property, a trophy.

Vote them out of all levels of Government.

Here's another story for The Following to throw down the hole of denial.

In September 2018, as allegations of sexual misconduct against Brett M. Kavanaugh threatened his confirmation to the Supreme Court, President Donald Trump vowed that the FBI would have “free rein” to vet the claims. Trump said the FBI was “talking to everybody” and added on social media: “I want them to interview whoever they deem appropriate, at their discretion.”

The president’s comments came as a surprise to the FBI, according to a new report from a Democratic senator based on previously undisclosed correspondence between the agency and the White House. FBI officials — directed to conduct a very limited inquiry in a week’s time — requested “additional guidance” from the White House, citing the public remarks by Trump and other officials describing a freewheeling investigation. But the White House never authorized the agency to independently probe the sexual misconduct allegations, which Kavanaugh staunchly denied.

The report, which was produced by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), a Judiciary Committee member and leading critic of the Kavanaugh confirmation, and provided to The Washington Post ahead of a public release on Tuesday, provides additional evidence of the tight control exercised by the White House over the FBI investigation — despite Trump’s claims to the contrary. The report found that messages to the FBI tip line regarding Kavanaugh were forwarded directly to the White House and never probed, and that the FBI had no written protocols for the supplemental background investigation ordered by the White House.

It has long been understood the WH tried to narrow the scope of the FBI investigation in to Schlitz Kavanaugh. Now we have some of the details as to how it was achieved. Details some folks will no doubt not want to hear.

This wasn't a secret at the time. Why are they reporting on this now that it's too late?

uh-huh ... you do understand the difference between actual reporting & an OP/ED page, do you not, lenny?

 

[mudwhistle]

Yeah....I know the difference. I studied journalism in college.

 

[playtime]

So you see no difference in the titles of NBC and Reuters?

i see no diff in the reportage... are you saying that reuters is not reporting the same facts?

 

[whitehall]

"Constrained"? FBI negligence almost got him killed and now they accuse him of constraint? WTF is going on in the federal government when the FBI becomes an ally of Media Matters?

 

[playtime]

Yeah....I know the difference. I studied journalism in college.

there is very little diff in WAPO, the NYT & The WSJ when it comes to reporting ... it's the OP/ED that swings a newspaper to the right or left.

Facts?

 

[martybegan]

lol ... ne'eh. i never supply biased sources that don't report proven facts.

Do you believe the allegations made against Kavanaugh are "proven facts"

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

The word is "reign," not "rein." If a source like the Washington Compost can't even get that right, then read no further. I did not.

Wrong. Thanks for playing.

That's what investigations are for.

Ya kinda ran headfirst into the point on accident, there.

 

[martybegan]

That's what investigations are for.

Ya kinda ran headfirst into the point on accident, there.

And the investigations have turned up jack shit.

There wouldn't be any physical evidence of it anymore, no videos or photographs of it have turned up, all the people maybe or supposedly there have been interviewed ad nauseum.

What exactly else would the FBI have found out?

Where is their jurisdiction in a case like this?

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

And the investigations have turned up jack shit.

The investigations that didn't get to happen?

Wow man, that's deep. Profound.

Democrats have been using Washington Post Stories for years to justify their fake claims.
