Antifar 07/14/18 11:14:08 PM #14:	I haven't read the article, but that a bunch of reporters (I assume from that text that we're talking about a decent amount of fairly serious people) are chasing a rumor like this is newsworthy. HuffPo seems to be treating it with the appropriate amount of skepticism and remove, from that tweet at least. The obvious parallel here is to the Michelle Obama "whitey tape," which was rumored during the 2008 campaign http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/campaigns/44834-roger-stone-claims-michelle-obama-whitey-video-will-soon-surface https://www.nationalreview.com/the-campaign-spot/michelle-obama-tape-matter-enunciation-jim-geraghty/ Naturally, everything eats its own tail; the rumor likely began among Clinton supporters, if not her campaign, and one of the guys most responsible for spreading it more recently started a rumor that the Trump administration amplified http://prospect.org/article/larry-johnsons-strange-trip http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2017/03/whitey-tape-blogger-was-one-source-of-uk-wiretap-claim.html Press Secretary Sean Spicer, looking to bolster President Trumps baseless wiretap allegations against President Obama, promoted Fox News commentator Andrew Napolitanos report that Obama used a British intelligence agency to spy on Trump during last years presidential campaign. ... So where did Fox News very talented legal mind come up with this White Houseboosted allegation? The New York Times and Politico report that one of the sources was former CIA analyst, blogger, and occasional Russia Today guest Larry C. Johnson, who infamously promoted the false rumor in 2008 that the GOP possessed a bombshell video in which former First Lady Michelle Obama had been recorded making disparaging remarks about white people also known as the infamous Whitey tape hoax. Napolitano apparently asked Johnson to speak with the Times on Friday, and Johnson explained to them that Napolitano had heard about the U.K. wiretap claim through an intermediary who had learned of it through sources in the U.S. intelligence community. --- kin to all that throbs <cite>Antifar posted [p:905094135] in The curren...
