CNN’s “Reliable Sources” offered a panel discussion on June 26, asking if Americans are so apathetic to the truth that our politics have entered a “post-fact check phase.” This is a reference to Donald Trump, of course. The media believe he’s a liar and gets away with it because of public apathy. What these journalists will never concede, however, is that Democrats get away with dishonesty because of their own apathy. Hillary Clinton’s obscene lie about landing in sniper fire in Bosnia is a distant memory.

Washington Post humorist/columnist Gene Weingarten was less than amused. Referencing the segment, he tweeted, “Everyone associated with this needs to be fired, killed, buried in an unmarked grave.”
