Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "The Most Busted Name In News"

From Washington's anarchist cartoonist Mike Flugennock:


"The Most Busted Name In News"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=2356

It sure has been a real shitburner of a month for U.S. corporate media, hasn't it? Aside from other notable debacles last week, the top honors went to CNN for their spectacular self-own involving the wrong date on an email in a Wikileaks trove in its "bombshell" Russiagate report which cited multiple sources -- unnamed, of course. Once the correct date on the email was revealed, CNN's "bombshell" -- like pretty much all U.S. media Russiagate "bombshells" -- turned out to be a big, empty dry fart.

But wait, there's more! After that whole hot mess collapsed, David Frum, senior editor of The Atlantic, added to the hilarity by going on CNN, looking the whole country straight in the eye, and telling us that "The mistakes are precisely the reason people should trust the media." Ohhhh, yeah. Keep fucking that chicken, Dave.
