Cynthia McFadden, senior legal and investigative correspondent on NBC Nightly News, on the January 11, 2017 edition, has called the 35 pages of notes from the ex-MI6 operative’s, Christopher Steele, investigation as “extremely lurid disinformation which the FBI and Intelligence services are no longer investigating”. Furthermore, the 2-page summary of the 35-page report was placed in an annex of the Intelligence report labeled as Disinformation. The BBC appears to be standing behind the civilian produced intelligence report.
Why is NBC allowing DT to get away with blaming the U.S. Intelligence services for leaking the report to the media? Is it because BuzzFeed is partially owned by NBC and they want any connection deflected in the growing smoke screen? The report in question, all 35 pages, has been out and around since at least August 15th. Why are they letting DT disparage the US intelligence services for something they had no part in? I think DT knows exactly what he is doing in this pre-emptive attack on the Intelligence services to discredit any future information that may be forth coming.
Feel free to jump in below and educate me as to what I might be missing in what is appearing to turn into a clusterfuck.
