Read this thread in light of the revelations of biased article placement FOR LOBBYING PURPOSES in @thehill by Paul Manafort and friends.
Then read this:
Now, read this fantastic journalism:
And be sure to note these two highlighted sections. Because they show potential EXTREME JOURNALISTIC MALPRACTICE.
Now try telling me we don’t have a crisis in the profession of American journalism. I dare you.
A toxic stew of lobbyists, PR firms, and bent “access” journalists is peddling deza to the American public. For money. To provide cover for the fucking mob. The mob that profits off human misery.
And they have been doing it for years.
Like this:
NOT EVERYONE IS BENT. But enough individuals and organizations are-hence we have trump as president. That’s why. BECAUSE THE FOURTH ESTATE FAILED US.
Look for the hashtag #GoodJournalism from me, @LincolnsBible, @ericgarland and other researchers you trust.
We point out the good ones with #GoodJournalism.
We point out the bad ones, too. And there are a lot of bad ones. For example:

here's how I imagine the strategy meeting went:
PR1: "SHIT THE ALFA SERVER STORY IS OUT WE GOTTA DISTRACT DISTRACT DISTRACT!"
PR2: "LET'S THROW SOME ALL BLACK PEOPLE LOOK THE SAME CHUM INTO THE WATERS OF THE LEFT SO THEY DON'T FOCUS ON THE RUSSIAN MOB INFILTRATION OF OUR GOV'T!"
Buh Lou what are you taaallking about?
The Hill lets people who are REGISTERED (and unregistered) FOREIGN AGENTS PUBLISH PROPAGANDA IN THEIR OUTLET. Do you think they have any ethical standards? That'd be a big fat NO.
PS. google "the hill" + "Wilbur Ross"

Sovereign Society fed clients to Panama Papers law firm
#GoodJournalism by @mcclatchyDC's @KevinGHall from June 2016.
I'm gonna add some background info on Robert Bauman of the Sovereign Society, because it's important. mcclatchydc.com/news/nation-wo…
Bauman is an advocate for offshoring money to avoid taxes.
SO WE ARE CLEAR:
Tax avoidance is why our infrastructure is crumbling. Tax avoidance is a form of greed. Tax avoidance is unpatriotic. Tax avoidance is what's gonna get alllllllll the bad guys. #FATCAgonnagetcha
Bauman's wife Carol Dawson (their marriage was annulled in 1983), and he were deeply involved with Young Americans for Freedom, aka YAF, and the American Conservatives Union, aka ACU.

Brett Kavanaugh 2015 financial disclosure report contains the following:
"Trip to Arizona Cardinals-Detroit Lions football game in Detroit with group of friends from Georgetown Prep high school class of 1983, hosted by high school classmate Michael Bidwilll, President of...
...Arizona Cardinals. October 10-11, 2015. Paid $500 to reimburse for flights and game ticket."
The game was at 4:05PM on October 11th. Ended 7:20PM.
No mention of where Kavanaugh stayed, who paid for his stay, or if he stayed with a friend. No mention of who paid for food/BEER.
Given @gregolear @LincolnsBible @SpicyFiles and my financial analysis of Kavanaugh's family finances, he didn't have a spare $500 laying around in 2015.
