Lately, it seems that more and more political pundits and media types are beginning to get a feeling that all of these “trumped up” scandals revolving around the White House may not be as serious, or as real, as they once thought. So, who could be behind such heinous and yet completely unprovable stories? Well, the media would never blame the Democrats or the party leader, Barack Obama. So the whispers have begun and what they’re saying is that… it might just be the Russians. The Russians could be spreading lies and disinformation in an effort to wreak havoc and sew chaos in our nation.
Well… d’uh. this is what many of us have been saying all along. While many conservatives believe that the Russians could be behind the madness, we also wouldn’t put it past the Democrats. In fact, while the Russians may be sewing discord by passing around fake news, it’s Obama loyalists who have leaked the bad intel to the Democrat loving media.
Fox News’ Charles Krauthammer explains how the Russians have been playing the media all along.

Charles has a point. Who knows where all these 'machine-gun' accusations and scandals are coming from?
"unnamed sources have said..."
"anonymous sources are quoted as saying..."
"sources close to the President say..."
"senior staff officials admit that..."
When you publish an accusation based on something someone heard from "somebody", there is no way to know who is behind it. It is just as likely to be a foreign intelligence operative as someone actually in the U.S. government. Since the American media has dumbed down their standards of "proof" to be any phone call from a pay phone by anyone claiming to know what they are talking about, then anything comes in to play. Anybody, foreign or domestic, can say anything they can dream up, and see it published the next day as a headline in the New York Times.
Obviously, there are many countries in the world who work to keep America off balance. Playing with the MSM is as good a way to do this.
