Do you know who REALLY values credibility???

Whistleblowers.

They sacrifice their paychecks and quite often their freedoms to bring you information that they believe is vital but secret. So, have you thought at all about what Manning, Assange, Snowden, Binney, and the dozens of other whistleblowers are trying to tell you? Or do you nestle comfortably in the armpit of journalists who themselves are nestled cozily in the armpit of advertising-driven corporate media?

Unless they are idiots, they realize that less credibility = less money.
Usually.

REAL newz outlets tend to fire peepl over mistakes, especially liez. At Fox, their job iz to tell liez and they can pay seriously big buks to make it worth wile for sumwun to join the team.

You may hav notised that Fox occasionally bringz in sum real journalists/newz personalityz in an obvious attempt to add credibility.

Yup. You prove that a lot yourself.

You didn't answer my question though. Where do you get off thinking that I am a Republican? I disagree with just as much of their bullshit as I do the left wing liars and idiots.

That's just bi-partisan or maybe non-partisan hypocrisy. It's still hypocrisy.

I don't listen to Warren Buffet either, if you were trying to make a point there.

Either the Senate can insist on replacing the FBI's Comey with a credible new leader who will continue its Trump/Russia investigation and follow the evidence wherever it leads, or it can tacitly accept Trump’s blatant effort to derail the inquiry.

Trump wrote, “While I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation, I nevertheless concur with the judgment of the Department of Justice that you are not able to effectively lead the bureau.” That sentence is likely to be parsed in days to come, and no FBI agent is dumb enough to miss its logic. It’s a formulation in which "effectively" leading the bureau is linked to not investigating Trump.

Those words are the stuff obstruction of justice is made of. Trump announced that he was beginning the search for a new FBI head. The nominee will require Senate confirmation, which is shaping up as a major test for the Senate. Republican senators have been playing along with Trump's diversionary tactics meant to muddy the Russia probe (trying to change the subject to press leaks, for instance). But now the burden is squarely on them to stand up for the integrity of the FBI and the Russia investigation.

I don't know if they'd want the position, but I'd like to see Trey Gowdy or Jason Chaffetz take it.

Why not suggest a Trump son, daughter, or in-law for FBI head? Or Melania?

And firing the head of the FBI wasn't stupid? White House insiders were happy to confirm that the Comey firing was all about Russia. This directly contradicts the White House narrative that it was about the fact that everyone had lost confidence in Comey because of the way he mistreated poor Hillary Clinton. Who are these people who work for Trump but are happy to undermine him to the press on a regular basis? Trump needs a loyalist to head the FBI and his family is the only place he can find them, now that Trump told the whole world he did commit a crime that the FBI has not yet gathered enough evidence to convict Trump for. Only a certifiable Trump loyalist/FBI Director could guarantee that the FBI can't collect more evidence against Trump.
