Mueller: The Man In The Crosshairs
In a bar located in downtown Washington DC, the front door opens slowly. A man sticks his head through the door and quickly glances left and right, as if he expects to see a stocker waiting for him. Apparently whoever he is looking for isn’t in tonight because the door opens and the man enters. […]
Sinclair is being attacked for suggesting they will do real journalism
“Unfortunately some members of the media use their platforms to push their own personal bias and agenda to control exactly what people think.
