ABC's Jake Tapper Is an Illiterate Journalist Who Lies About Bill Clinton
Here's a perfect example of why it is dangerous to believe anything you hear from the mainstream media, especially if it involves the evil ways of the Clintons. Always, it's wise to do some research to make certain that the outrageous 'fact' you just read did not come from a 'journalist' as brain-dead or biased against the Clintons as Jake Tapper.
Either Jake Tapper, senior national correspondent at ABC (!), hates Bill Clinton and so willfully lies about him, or Jake Tapper is a moron who is an embarrassment to ABC News and the discipline of journalism.
Jake Tapper states that Bill Clinton said: “We just have to slow down our economy and cut back our greenhouse gas emissions ’cause we have to save the planet for our grandchildren.”
Yet further down on Jake Tapper's website, we find the transcript of what Bill Clinton actually said:
“And maybe America, and Europe, and Japan, and Canada — the rich counties — would say, ‘OK, we just have to slow down our economy and cut back our greenhouse gas emissions ’cause we have to save the planet for our grandchildren. We could do that.
“But if we did that, you know as well as I do, China and India and Indonesia and Vietnam and Mexico and Brazil and the Ukraine, and all the other countries will never agree to stay poor to save the planet for our grandchildren. The only way we can do this is if we get back in the world’s fight against global warming and prove it is good economics that we will create more jobs to build a sustainable economy that saves the planet for our children and grandchildren. It is the only way it will work."
Tapper titled his manufactured story: Bill: “We Just Have to Slow Down Our Economy” to Fight Global Warming. I've been staring at the lying headline over at memeorandum all day. Gawd only knows how many news organizations, blogs, Obamamanians and anti-Clinton charlatans have picked up the story. You may well see it on Clinton-hating MSNBC later tonight.
Mainstream media morons like Tapper pull this crap all the time. Many mainstream 'journalists' couldn't pass an undergrad journalism course if their life depended on it simply because the first requirement is reading comprehension.
Sadly, No! has the story: Depressingly stupid goddamn journalism
