    I don't have to defend RS. Like all news outlets, no one bats 1000, but RS has had enough good ones to earn their place such that they are a quotable source.

    Therefore, 'kill the messenger' tactic, might be valid for Info Wars, but not for RS.

    You still need to refute the message.

    You haven't refuted the story.

    It would be a surprise of a right winger ever understood that anonymous news sources are not 'anonymous' in the sense that they are unknown to the reporters, indeed, they are known to their reporters, it's just that they must remain anonymous to be protected from harm that might come to them if their identities were made known.

    IN other words, without them, 75% of news wouldn't exist.

    It would be a surprise if a right winger ever rose above .... long enough to grasp that point.

    Your premise' 'if a source is not revealed to the public' it must be false, is utterly false.

    And, they are not true anonymous sources, because a true anonymous source is anonymous to everyone, including the reporter.

    That is not what is happening here.

    Should a righty ever grasp something so fundamental, get out the fireworks, strike up the band, break open the champagne, and let's celebrate, because that would be an occasion.

    It's well known the shady past of the Hoover FBI, the CIA, etc.

    Institutions can and do evolve, as a nation evolves. We no longer have slaves, eh? We improved.


    so, it begs the question:

    But, are they like that today?

    Because today is what matters.

    I explained it to you in very simple terms, and you still ignore the truth.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it a gain, I could hand you a plate of poop and you'd call it ice cream.

    Anonymous sources are not anonymous sources because they are anonymous sources.

    Hows your ice cream?

    Good question.
    Clandestine secret police agencies tend to devolve.

    “The first attack on U.S. soil for which ISIS claimed responsibility — a 2015 shooting in Garland, Texas — was instigated by the FBI, according to an investigation by CBS' "60 Minutes" and government documents obtained by an attorney involved in the case.

    In a macabre twist, an undercover FBI agent who encouraged one of the shooters to "tear up Texas" was also physically present at the scene of the crime, mere feet away from the shooters. Prior to that, a separate informant was paid $132,000 by the FBI to pretend for three years to be friends with the future shooter.”

    Read my post again. I defended Rolling Stone.
    RS frequently reports the truth - even when it goes against its LW bias. For instance:

    "Sixty-four percent of New Hampshire Democratic voters would rather see “a giant meteor strike the Earth, extinguishing all human life” than see President Trump re-elected, according to a new poll from the University of Massachusetts at Lowell.
    Somewhat surprisingly, 28 percent of conservatives joined the majority of Democrats on wiping out all of mankind rather than dealing with another four years of Trump. And to no one’s surprise, 68 percent of women polled, more than any other group, would welcome a fireball of death over the president remaining in the White House."

    Clearly, you have no clue about the subject.

    Congratulations, ignorance deserves the ignore list.

    The issue of the FBI and the CIA, is a complex one.

    There are dedicated professionals in their ranks who put it on the line every day, and are to be commended.

    Are their issues? Plenty, but the point is, I'm not taking the cynical 'hate them all' viewpoint.

    No, I get it. You buy into anonymous sources even though you have been duped time and again.

    Of course they're like that. See: Crossfire Hurricane and see today. Fabrications of evidence, political kangaroo courts, etc. They've never once made any attempts to reform their corruption not even after the Church Commission. Just like the DOJ refused to acknowledge the brazen steps that, if taken under the Trump Administration on let's say sex education topics(ie: abortion, birth control, abstinence, etc) would've gotten a hollar from your side.

    Government is inherently corrupt, just a little more on the Democratic side.

    Hate is always counterproductive. Governments are inherently corrupt and mismanagement is the rule, not the exception.
    Clandestine government agencies are prone to corruption and incompetence. No one should be shocked when their blunders are finally exposed

    The FBI bomb expert who accused senior officials at the agency's crime laboratory of slanting or contaminating evidence in more than 1,000 cases says that his home has been wiretapped and burgled, according to sources close to an internal probe.

    Dr. Frederic Whitehurst, who was stripped of his badge and escorted from the bureau's Washington headquarters last Friday, has complained to close colleagues that unknown intruders rifled his home files and installed hidden wiretaps in recent months, these sources say.

    "Unfortunately, we are not able to confirm or deny that," said FBI spokeswoman Angela Bell, responding to Salon's request for comment on Friday.

    Whitehurst has previously charged that the Materials Analysis Unit, based in the FBI's Washington headquarters, has mishandled evidence in several major cases, including the Oklahoma City bombing and the Unabomber case. The FBI has not commented on those charges, but three senior lab officials, whom Whitehurst has repeatedly accused of incompetence and slanting evidence, were transferred from the lab last week.”
