I'm sure most of the deep state conspiracy wonks that need this FBI tipped of CNN to show how Mueller is tainted will not understand or believe this anyway.


but maybe you can see how good investigative reporting actually works.

are you serious? cnn gets there at 5am. after waiting nearly an hour they say they nearly gave up. But being the serious "journalists" they persisted for at least 15 more minutes....holy crap the fbi at times had mafia figures under surveillance for months and then came up with squat only to start over again...but cnn acting on its own with only watching the NY prosecutors office and its keen "instincts" decided not to go to Stones NY office which the other day you say was raided, they went to Florida and waited for nearly an hour. By the way where is this NY video of the raid....and if you cannot find it , why not,,,,clue no body was watching his NY office for obviuous reasons


Just how many jokes does cnn need to pull to get you to realize there are no journalists there. They have a bunch of teenagers watching and reading twitter and facebook, not chasing stories, but repeating rumors, and the worst of it is every story begins with a bias they try to rationalize. It all starts in todays's eduction play rooms so we cannot blame it all on today's pretend reporters but come a certain age they should be able to figure something out

keep watching INFOWARS thats what makes you more informed and why you couldn't figure out Stone was not going to be arrested at his office.


Keep up the hate like I stated a year ago its not enough to be conservative any more you also must be hate filled and angry.

Be  careful frey,

You have displayed the most hate/anger and name calling of anybody here......by a wide margin and mcfarm did/stated nothing for you to accuse him of this. 

You're already on double secret probation:

anger? hate? I asked  couple questions. Frye you are now sounding like the wacked out pro 9 month abortion nut on TV the other nite. No matter what the question, no matter what the topic, no matter what sound she heard the response was only "you being a white man" only want to control a women body, time after time she was given opportunity to debate the issue but being the crazed lid she has to throw out the talking points just like "hate and anger"

mcfarm,

Let's go on to the next discussion or pointless point of this discussion. Frey knows what will happen next time.

Since the Tinfoil Hat ReTrumplicans don't trust anyone it's probably good they had a media outlet there to witness it. Right?

cliff,

You must be oblivious to the elements of this backfiring for Mueller.


https://www.breitbart.com/radio/2019/01/29/roger-stone-let-cnn-say-werent-tipped-off-under-oath/

"Stone said, “[FBI agents] walked me out in the middle of the street to make sure the CNN camera could get great footage of the whole thing. The street was sealed off, so how CNN had a camera right outside the door; that’s very hard to understand, because nobody else was allowed on the street.”

CNN denied being tipped off by sources within Robert Mueller’s team or the broader FBI, crediting “reporter’s instinct” with its decision to have a camera crew on-site during the pre-dawn raid of Stone’s home."

metmike:

cliff,

You will disbelieve anything from that source but just look at one sentence in bold letters above.


As I was explaining to frey previously but maybe you missed it:

https://www.marketforum.com/forum/topic/22822/


frey: "Mike were is your proof that the CNN reporter is lying .

CNN  reporter stated that because of documents that were filed the timing of those documents, and he kinds of documents that were filed, it lead them to believe with a high degree of certainty that they were going to do a early Friday arrest. If you have evidences to the contary please post it."


metmike: "This is laughable. I was in television news for 11 years at the local ABC affiliate(which was CBS when I worked there).

I did weather but was part of the operation that included all the meetings which discussed every aspect of news coverage. Our news department met with the local police annually(state/county/city cops) to discuss whats acceptable and whats not regading coverage in situations like this.

The chance of a news crew being given special access like this, to a huge raid, even if the reporter was telling the truth about how his instincts led them there, is ZERO unless somebody from the Mueller team provided them with special, pre approved access to the raid.

TV crews can't just show up and go anywhere they want, mingling with a dozen+, heavily armed FBI agents doing a huge arrest. At least not in the real world that defines all the other situations like this. I guess that you don't get how absurd this assertion is because you want to believe it and don't understand the dynamic.

Here's another way to think of it.

If numerous other media outlets had been smart enough to figure out this raid was going to take place and were out there too, doing the exact same thing, the FBI agents would not have been able to do their job because the photographers and reporters would have been blocking their movement/getting in the way.

There are rock solid rules/guidelines that determine the way that media is allowed to engage in a situation like this and they were obviously violated(a special, approved exception was made for CNN) by the Mueller team so that CNN could capture this breaking story/footage close up.

There is no rule that says that if there is only 1 tv station out there, cops allow more access than if there are 10 tv stations out there. That would be silly.

Mueller wanted them there, nice and close and wanted it to be the station that he knew would give him the best coverage."

As Roger Stone stated and is consistent with FBI raids...........the street was sealed off to prevent anybody, except those with special permission/prior authorization to be there.........period!

 

The CNN video actually incriminates somebody on the Mueller team for tipping them off and giving them special access.

It is amazing how gullible some people are, to believe this CNN cr*p.

A man 60+ years old... owns no guns... has already repeatedly spoken to Mueller... has expected to be called in for questioning  (if he had something to hide on his computers, he had ample time to do a Hillary-computer-smash)...

and then they come.... pre-dawn raid...29 agents in battle gear... weapons drawn...OMG

when I saw the film, I first thought of Hitler's Gestapo... but that would have been an insult to the Gestapo... they would have sent only 2 agents.

There is no doubt in my mind.... this event and its filming was planned for public release.

And the funny thing.... when followers of CNN want to defend CNN, they often refer to objections as coming from the deplorable, crazy conspiracy nuts of the alt-right. 

"Hey, you can't possibly believe what the alt-right says"

Yeah, sure.... fortunately we do have alternate media sites that deviate from the lies and propaganda of the MSM

We have a large segment of the population that believes that punk a$$ rich white kid started trouble with that poor native American war hero and that CNN was smart enough to figger out when  the raid would take place and that Hilary was innocent and socialism is just swell and that Trump is ruining America and we are headed for a depression and government can fix healthcare and cops are evil and BLM is a legitimate group and ANTIFA is fighting for freedom and that censorship in social media is the right thing to do and "Hate Speech" justifies any rebuttal, any action, especially if wearing a red hat with MAGA on it and DNA does not determine sex and climate change science is settled and abortion up to, and perhaps immediately following birth is just swell but we need to save the whales and the three toed pollywog ..     I could go on...  But you get the point. This is quite simply...  Insanity.
