Trump said he enjoyed spending time with him at the NATO summit - also True. Finland isn't in NATO - also True. (Information left out) He was at the NATO summit and had dinner with Trump. Just leaving out one piece of information can make a completely "true" statement utter disinformation. That's how the game works. Especially with the "Russia" narrative. Look how many times the truth is parsed or information is left out to make a mundane discovery appear as if it might be a smoking gun (either way). That's the brilliance of it. It's literally true... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FOX, by far the biggest propaganda based lying machine in existence, and nary a word. ....sic Fox, CNN and the others do report news accurately among some of their content. More and more though, news outlets are offering opinion over news or news delivered with opinion. All pick and choose which stories they want to report to their viewership so are they slanted, hell yeah. It's very easy if uninformed on a topic to buy in or reject what you're watching or reading depending on your own personal point of view. So if you are a left leaning person and CNN reports that Mueller indicts 12 Russians for stealing data from DNC and related party servers, and they interview "experts" who make commentary and speculation which potentially ties Trump and his campaign to this, it meets with your approval because it supports your hopes and views. You get a rush inside because oh boy they've got Trump right where they want him now and you plan to tune in later for more. Unfortunately such reporting fails to mention that Rosenstein stated in his announcement of charges that no Americans are involved. At some point CNN may have reported that but the bulk of the reporting and commentary fails to consider that. It is in fact slanted propoganda.
