Sometimes they are five (and we have the news organizations to reinforce this)

Guardian:

Roger Stone: Trump adviser found guilty on all counts in WikiLeaks hacking case

Craig Murray:

The Mueller investigation has thus ultimately ended up prosecuting people for telling the same pack of lies that Mueller himself was pushing. The Clinton media, including CNN, the Washington Post and New York Times, are baffled by this. They follow the Stone trial assiduously from delight in seeing a long term Trump hanger-on brought down, and in the hope something will come out about Wikileaks or Russia. Their reporting, as that of the BBC, has been deliberately vague on why Stone is being charged, contriving to leave their audience with the impression that Stone’s trial proves Trump connections to Wkileaks and Russia, when in fact it proves the precise opposite.

Reading the BBC and Guardian can be, I don’t know, I was initially going to say „extraordinary“ but that’s not accurate, as their reporting is, in fact, quite consistent in its lies, and so is ordinary. The headline in the Guardian is „WikiLeaks hacking“ though the facts of the case, as Murray points out, are something far different. Friends and relatives fear Russia! Russia! Russia! and are angry at Trump! Trump! Trump!

I’m enjoying Hersh’s Reporter these days. Going in to pick up M. R. D. Foot’s volume on resistance today I think.
