Whom Are You Going to Believe? Media Fact Checkers or Your Lying Ears.

Whom Are You Going to Believe? Media Fact Checkers or Your Lying Ears. | Frontpage Mag:

Media fact checkers perform a vital function. 
They're opinion editorials that are labeled as facts. 
They have as much in common with facts as 1984's Ministry of Truth. 
They find ways to declare that the truth is a lie and a lie is the truth.

But Politico's own version of Fact Check (every self-respecting lefty media outlet has to have one now) known as the Wrongometer has gone one better. 
It's declared that an audio tape of Hillary Clinton laughing about getting off a 12-year-old girl's rapist is not a fact.

Here's Zack Stanton, "Trump is wrong: Hillary Clinton did not laugh about the rape of a 12-year-old"

"It is totally false to say that Hillary Clinton laughed about the rape of a 12-year-old. And it has been thoroughly debunked."

Well so long as it's been thoroughly debunked. That way no one has to worry about it and we can instead focus on how awful Trump is and why major celebrities would like us to vote for Hillary. You know, serious journalism.

And yet, oddly enough, here's the tape of Hillary laughing.

“It was a fascinating case, it was a very interesting case,” Clinton says in the recording. “This guy was accused of raping a 12-year-old. Course he claimed that he didn’t, and all this stuff."

“I had him take a polygraph, which he passed – which forever destroyed my faith in polygraphs,” she added with a laugh.

Clinton can also be heard laughing at several points when discussing the crime lab’s accidental destruction of DNA evidence that tied Taylor to the crime.

In a July 28, 1975, court affidavit, Clinton wrote that she had been informed the young girl was “emotionally unstable” and had a “tendency to seek out older men and engage in fantasizing.”

And Kathy Shelton, the girl who was raped and beaten into a coma, whom Hillary had accused of being a lying slut in court, she has a different view than the fact checkers too.

A child rape victim says she cannot forgive Hillary Clinton for defending her rapist in court 40 years ago, saying the Democratic presidential candidate attacked her credibility despite knowing that her assailant was guilty – and  later laughed about it in a taped interview.

Taylor pleaded down to 'unlawful fondling of a minor' and served less than a year in prison after Clinton was able to block the admission of forensic evidence that linked her client to the crime.

Shelton said Clinton accused her during the case of 'seeking out older men', and demanded that the 12-year-old undergo a grueling court-ordered psychiatric examination to determine whether she was 'mentally unstable'.

'I heard you on tape laughing,' said Shelton. 'I just want to know, you've got a daughter and a grandbaby. What happens if that daughter of yours, if that would have been her [who was assaulted at age 12]?'

'Because after laughing on that tape, she's pretty much stuck in knowing that she lied, knowing that it happened to me. And that tape's out there to be listened to by anybody.'

But lefties only say that we have to believe rape victims when they're not accusing the Clintons. Otherwise we "fact check" them out of existence.

But the tape is indeed out there to be listened to anyone. And Americans will have to decide whether to trust the media's fact checkers or their own lying ears.
