NYT reporters: Blasey Ford claim still credible because friend has substance abuse history

The New York Times reporters who wrote The Education of Brett Kavanaugh say the accusation of sexual misconduct Dr. Christine Blasey Ford made against Justice Brett Kavanaugh is still credible, even though Ford's friend Leland Keyser doubts it.

Co-author Kate Kelly told CNN's Reliable Sources that valid issues have been raised and addressed, but also said some of the criticisms have been "a distraction from all the reporting that we did and new material that we have. It’s really sort of an attempt to discredit the messenger and avoid the conversation about the facts, about the evidence."

Kelly said their book has the first interview with Keyser, whom Ford says was at the party where Kavanaugh allegedly tried to rape her. Keyser revealed she does not believe Ford's claim and told the FBI she felt pressure from Ford's allies to change her story.

Leland Keyser doesn't think the alleged incident happened, but we still have to push the narrative that Justice Kavanaugh is a sexual predator (and sell our book),  so we will smear Keyser. 

[Sanguine]

And, apparently this smear against Keyser is why she spoke out.  Somebody overplayed their hand.

Nasty pieces of work, those NYT "reporters," maligning Keyser.

When your supporting witness won't corroborate your story, you really don't have a leg to stand on.

Co-author Kate Kelly told CNN's Reliable Sources that valid issues have been raised and addressed, but also said some of the criticisms have been "a distraction from all the reporting that we did and new material that we have. It’s really sort of an attempt to discredit the messenger and avoid the conversation about the facts, about the evidence."

Awe sweetie you never had ANY credibility. The facts are that Chrissy had no evidence and Kavanaugh did.

Kelly said their book has the first interview with Keyser, whom Ford says was at the party where Kavanaugh allegedly tried to rape her. Keyser revealed she does not believe Ford's claim and told the FBI she felt pressure from Ford's allies to change her story.

So witness tampering is now legitimate evidence.

It iws becoming more and more apparent that the NYT is now a work of fiction.

There is no depth of dishonesty to which the New York Times's radical editors will not sink in order to protect the one unqualified "right" which they support with the zeal of true fanatics: the "right" of women to kill their unborn children at any time and for any reason, up until the moment of birth.   

And make no mistake - the vicious, scurrilous and libelous attacks on Justice Kavanaugh are all about, and only about one thing: abortion.

True.  There is also some leftover bitterness because Obama's last nominee didn't get a hearing.  They desperately wanted the court to remain liberal so that abortion and everything else on the liberal socialist agenda would be preserved (not to mention any new evil they come up with).

They're doing exactly what those who pressured Keyser said would be done.

Maybe the Dems should have foreseen that possibility back when they filibustered GWB's judicial nominees and back in 1992 when they filibustered GHWB's judicial nominees. "Karma" doesn't consult the target's convenience.

There is no depth to the convoluted filth the left will come up with to keep killing babies legal.
