DOJ; Beware “Anonymous Sources”

RT (a Russian News Service) reports on a DOJ announcement to the effect that it is time for regular Americans to stop trusting Legacy Fake News Media when they use anonymous sources for their stories. And indeed we have so many examples of false and fabricated stories from The Elite Media Monoculture that there can be no good reason to take them at their word or trust them to report accurately and without malicious intent.

The Department of Justice has warned the American public not to take at face value anything attributed to anonymous government officials, just before another such report got Washington speculating about an investigation of President Donald Trump’s son-in-law.

“Americans should exercise caution before accepting as true any stories attributed to anonymous ‘officials,’ particularly when they do not identify the country – let alone the branch or agency of government – with which the alleged sources supposedly are affiliated,” Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said in a statement Thursday evening. “Americans should be skeptical about anonymous allegations. The Department of Justice has a long-established policy to neither confirm nor deny such allegations.”

And bias isn’t just shown when the Legacy Media outright lies about the right, which they do often. When news is inconvenient for the left, somehow it just disappears. Yesterday’s mass assassination attempt by the left is apparently not important enough to catch the attention of Google News.
