Pathetic NYT spin on Horowitz report
By Thomas Lifson

The New York Times is operating in a pure propaganda mode, attempting to minimize the impact of the forthcoming (Dec. 9) report of the Department of Justice Inspector General, Michael Horowitz.  Sundance, of The Conservative Treehouse, calls his article on leaks from the report,  “highly structured obfuscation,” doing justice to the careful and artful misleading of readers.

The media has gone into overdrive trying to get ahead of the December 9th release of DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s report on FISA Abuse during the 2016 election. According to The New York Times:

    The Justice Department’s inspector general found no evidence that the F.B.I. attempted to place undercover agents or informants inside Donald J. Trump’s campaign in 2016 as agents investigated whether his associates conspired with Russia’s election interference operation, people familiar with a draft of the inspector general’s report said.
