ProPublica's Secret Talks Reveal Hegseth Fake News Was Deliberately Manufactured

2024-12-15

[Twitchy] ProPublica really hoped to prove Pete Hegseth lied about acceptance to West Point. They were full steam ahead with the story until Hegseth's team went ahead and outed the scheme to the public. Today, we learned how the plot unfolded.

"One hour deadline" by the way means they had already written the story they were gonna publish. ProPublica should be lucky Pete had his acceptance letter otherwise they would've taken one the fattest L's in journalism history.

They had no intentions of being fair to him or any Republican, actually.

One hour doesn't even give him time to scan and email a document back to them.

"Our deadline is in one hour" means they're already written the story and they're not giving you enough time to respond.

Everybody involved at West Point and Pro Publica should be fired.
