Corporate outlets invented previously unthinkable journalistic practices to enable them to spread lies with plausible deniability.

Even if Stelter's defense weren't factually false -- we never said *for sure* it was Russian disinformation, just that it might be, that would still require retraction once you learn it's false. But the above-video shows they want *way* beyond that: https://t.co/0z94C7hcPG — PolitiTweet.org

Just think about that. Why kind of "journalistic outlet" would air to millions of people an inflammatory claim they admit is **improbable** on the ground it "might be true?" Everything falls into that group. But MSNBC and NYMag did it because they knew their audience wanted it. — PolitiTweet.org
