Are you implying that she belches methane?

Watching reruns of Wiley coyote and the road runner is quite refreshing compared to looking at shs and hearing her voice.

“We know of roughly – nearly 4,000 known or suspected terrorists…”

“…just in the White House Press Corps alone!”

I dunno. I think Wallace wants her well away from his personal space and then some. Damn. I would.

That is truly why I didn’t even click on the video clip. I seriously cannot listen to that woman, and looking at her is equally difficult. She looks the way she does because lying has twisted her soul. You might ask why hasn’t this happened to Individual 1?

My reply would be that he doesn’t have one to twist. :neutral_face:

Fact checked. Repeats lie. Fact checked again, repeats same lie. Fact check reiterated, ignores it, tells same lie. Fact check repeated again, says she’s not disagreeing with him then tells the same lie.

That’s how they run over the media. It’s not getting called out on repeating the same lie right after being fact checked on it. It’s the keeping it a dispute about disputed facts rather than making it about the lying.

Sure, it’s only Fox and you can’t expect more, but this is how it works on all the TV news shows, time and again. They’ll correct the lie, but they’ll make the lying the issue.

Have to wonder if they have editorial and management meetings where they anticipate where things are going with Trump and what their position will be. For the moment this isn’t that unusual, Wallace will sometimes call people on stuff the way Shep Smith will; like Jon Stewart said once, these are the thinnest kids in fat camp. But if they’re interested in positioning they want to be out front of the unraveling the more obvious it becomes. They don’t want to say “We knew it all along” but they don’t want to be seen as totally sandbagged either. So hmm. Not sure how I’d handle it. Hmm hmm hmm.

‘Sarah, I studied up on this: that’s horse poop’

‘It’s horse DISCHARGE, and it doesn’t just come out the rear, there’s pee and there’s smoker’s phlegm and spittle and excessive perspiration and those bits of food that come flying out everywhere when the mouth’s not closed during the chewing part’

‘Okay’

“Okay”? What TF, Chrips: she flummoxed you because you never figured you might need to “study up” on alternative lies and word salad she’d resort to and it came as a total surprise to you that when you had her cornered she’d just re-inhale a bunch of discharged CO2 and commence to tell the same lies only bigger and louder?

WHAT A NEWS MAN!

I suspect the main point is to just look like you’re refuting them, meanwhile, you let them keep repeating the same lie over and over for the gullible to digest. Chances are… the lie is what will be remembered.

What the fuck is going on at Fox?

When called out on her bullshit, she pivoted to something something…land, sea, and air. Oh great…so now we have to build a wall, a roof, and a moat to protect America. I can only hope the Mexican Peso is rising in value.

Correction:
Chances are… the repeated lie is what will be remembered by their targeted audience. The rest of us will take something completely different away from the exchange. Two birds with one stone. We’re doing our job while still giving the liar a platform and helping them get their lie out there.

Well the Trump may be hitting the Fan finally. Hell they are talking he might pull a national emergency to get his way. Fox may be considering that if he goes down hard in any direction, they go right with him. So for future reference they want to seem like they were in front of it all.
