It appears Roy Moore's defenders are resorting to highly questionable tactics in an attempt to cast doubt on news reporting of the child-molester's activities and history:

A woman approached The Post with dramatic — and false — tale about Roy Moore. She appears to be part of undercover sting operation --

https://www.washingtonpost.com/inves...=.2c158248db0e


The first big problem in this laughable attempt to trip up the WaPo was the fact major media outlets like The Post are not going to publish something as volatile as the 'story' the person spun without have verification and, in cases where it is available, multiple sources for the 'story'; they are not Breitbart, Alex Jones, or Fox News. The second was the bungling spinning of the story caused the WaPo to apparently investigate and follow the 'victim', who led them to her managers. It should be noted the person in charge of the outfit the 'victim' went to is well known for using illegal means to 'punk' his victims and fabricate 'facts'...

It looks like The Post is very serious about going to the mat with Moore and his minions...

The WaPo sting story gets better: seems Trump has a more than casual connection to the group that attempted the ruse:

Trump Donated to Project Veritas Before Organization Tried to Trick Washington Post With Outrageous Roy Moore Claim --

Aw leave poor Roy Moore alone.

It has now become apparent that Congress has more than enough harassers, sexual and other wise.

http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/16/politi...ent/index.html

Quote:
On Thursday, the Office of Compliance released additional information indicating that it has paid victims more than $17 million since its creation in the 1990s. That includes all settlements, not just related to sexual harassment, but also discrimination and other cases.
This is tax payers money. Two of those settlements have been revealed. Democratic Rep. Raul Grijalva of Arizona $48,395, and Democratic Rep. John Conyers of Michigan $27,000.

According to the OOC data released Thursday, there have been 268 settlements. If Roy Moore does, by some miracle win that Senate seat in Alabama he will be going to join his peers. He should feel right at home.

At this point, nothing should surprise us. After all there are still 266 unknown harassers of all types, apparently. Some people should be worried.

Prosecutors can not complain, a lot of money rolls in to the state.

Sorry Vendor but you've got that backwards. In this case the money, taxpayer money rolls out of the state. No doubt lawyers get their share.

Ok! I know that the taxpayers are responsible for the bill. But it generates the benefits in addition to the usual at least, in normal cases.

Default Matt Lauer: NBC sacks star Today Show host over sex allegation

Quote:
Matt Lauer, one of the most famous TV news anchors in the US, has been fired by NBC over an allegation of sexual misconduct.
NBC said: "On Monday night, we received a detailed complaint from a colleague about inappropriate sexual behaviour in the workplace by Matt Lauer.
"As a result, we've decided to terminate his employment.
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-42168640

This happening now spreads slowly through all layers of societies.

I never did like him (Matt Lauer) on NBC he was always pretending to be a girl at the annual Halloween party.

They said there have been complaints for years, but yet the CEo says he just heard about it for the first time.

Something is going on here folks ... who's next?
