More misleading reporting seeped out of the mainstream media today. A week after Donald Trump fired James Comey, the New York Times published information about a supposed memo Comey had written previous to his termination. As reported, the memorandum suggested that Trump asked the FBI to halt the investigation into former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.
If that were the case, Trump’s critics would have a decent argument of obstruction of justice. But as is always the case with the left-wing media, the headlines don’t quite match up with the facts.
Trump didn’t ask Comey to stop investigating Flynn. Instead, his quote, which was included in the New York Times’ piece, was much less objectionable. Of course, that didn’t stop them from pushing a misleading headline — and in news, few people see past the words at the top of the page.

Proving once again that the NY Times is a world leader of f**e news reports.
LIES
More b******t
Who? Trump or Chaffetz? Gotta be clear sbout these things. Some of us could be real upset.
Geeze… will someone just get on the phone and ask Comey a simple question.. “Does a memo exist ?”
F**e news
I am done with the MSM lying vultures
Asking to forgo an investigation and obstructing an investigation are two entirely different things. Just ask obama lynch and clinton.
Allegations are not evidence!
This is Bull$#%&!@* “News”!!!!
