GOP congressman accused of ignoring sexual abuse as wrestling coach

[Deja Thoris]

It is important we treat allegations as nothing but that until final proof is provided.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has denied allegations that he groped a reporter at a festival in 2000.

If the reporter were underaged, male and being fucked by Justin Trudeau this would be an apt comparison. But intelligent discourse ain't your strongsuit.

And that’s what I stated in what you quoted. I treat them all the same whether favor liberal or conservative causes my friend. It’s just that by and large most of the links are left-center biased. I can’t help that.
BTW, why didn’t you highlight the biased part? Kek....

No, that is objectively not true. I copied and pasted from the source, without adding my spin to it. The reason I hilighted the part I did, is to highlight you copying from the general statement in the category, instead of the specific stamens about NY times.

It’s why I copy and paste... it avoids my bias. It’s far easier to copy and paste, so the choice you made, is to spend additional effort, to put it into your own words. Which is objectively, not the words use in the article.

@AllebebobaSo if 50 news outlets publish the same story, albeit with different leanings, does that mean that the story is true? Or is the story inherently false because one of the paper's is what you would call fake news? I'm sure that Fox, NYT, Reuters and the AP all reported on the resignation of Pruitt yesterday. Does that mean it actually didn't happen because the NYT reported it?

I admire your mental gymnastics.

Here is the conclusion drawn in his article:

Overall, we rate the New York Times Left-Center biased based on word and story selection that favors the left, but highly factual and considered one of the most reliable sources for information due to proper sourcing and well respected journalists/editors.

Kek... and you left out the biased part.
I type out what they state my friend. I type out the same portion reguardless of whether they are biased or not, whether their facts are very high, high, mixed or whatever.
I don’t add anything. I don’t darken any text.

Here is an example of me doing a bias check or both sides of spectrum.

Ok, this has been going on long enough, THE BIAS DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER. The factuality is what fucking matters. You can stop with this fucking bullshit trying to be in the middle. We know you aren't and you can't refute anything that is being said so you do this bullshit and it makes you look fucking worse. You should give up on this and just go back to your defense of Trump.

@Allybeboba

if you live in the Houston area, Im guessing your read the Chronicle if you only look at local news

they had a litany of articles on Jerry Sandusky over the last few years, and on the people caught in the fallout of his downfall

So a fourth student

Shh! No time for that now! Because it's up to seven students!

"Stop doing that!"

No.

David Range told The Washington Post that Jordan must have know about the alleged sexual abuse by athletic doctor Richard Strauss because it was regularly discussed.

“Jordan definitely knew that these things were happening — yes, most definitely,” Range told the newspaper. “It was there. He knew about it because it was an everyday occurrence.”

No, I posted the whole quote. Sorry, you are just wrong.

Hey, I have an unrelated question and want to do it in public, so it’s not underhanded. Would you mind if I pretended you were my Trump supporter alt? I promise to not be mean... unless it’s funny... but, it won’t just be mean...

Edit: I tried to have... I don’t remember his name, the guy everyone jumps on about Moore... just play along with it. But, I don’t think he was pleased... figure I check first... just want to have some fun.

Meanwhile, Jim Jordan has been calling the cops on the victims stating he knew about what was going on but just ignored it.

Well, if Ally is your Trump supporter alt, then publicly asking yourself if it is ok to pretend you are is genius.

Jeebus... I’d be 5k posts from 50k... I should plan some sort of penance.

Edit: I’m probably just high... but, I have been thinking of an idea of this forum just replying to each other with “what my alt meant to say”... it just tickles my fancy...

I dunno man, talking to yourself in public seems kind of crazy to me.

"You sure you want to -- "

Shh. Not now.

The issue with that would be, my friend. you and the cabal still haven’t had any instances of me directly supporting him. I know, I know. You have a few quotes(out of nearly 10,000) from a couple years ago taken out of context(people have actually tried posting quotes from over three years ago and even longer too. Lol...I’m flattered at that one) Yet, people haven’t provided quotes of me directly supporting him.
We all know this site full of people that are anti-Tr umpers and just can’t stand people that are not anti-Tr umpers. Those of us that aren’t(which doesn’t mean pro BTW) have grown to accept it. It was the same way with the prior administration. Haters are gonna hate. It is simply the way they are they can’t help themselves.

Why are you putting a space between the r and the u in "anti-Tr umpers"?

Just the local parts of the mobile free version. Same with a local TV station I read their TV site. I don’t have a lot of time for television. I get up at 4:45am and get home at about 6:30/7:00pm. I don’t have time to watch a lot of television.

I'm going to call BS on that based on how much time you are able to dedicate to shitposting on here.

Conservative writer Bre Payton weighed in on the controversy surrounding Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and alleged sexual abuse of Ohio State wrestlers when Jordan was an assistant coach, saying that it is important not to hold people to today's standards in regard to actions from over 20 years ago.

"Now it's 2018. The 'Me Too' movement has empowered a lot of victims of sexual assault to feel comfortable going forward and naming their accusers and going public, and that's a really good thing that we should all applaud," Payton, who writes for The Federalist, told Hill TV's Buck Sexton and Krystal Ball on "Rising."

"I think it's also important not to hold people 20 years ago to the standards of today, right? I think we have to look at these things in context. There's a lot of unanswered questions about this. There's a lot of details that still remain unanswered about Jim Jordan, what exactly he did, what exactly he didn't know," she continued.

"So I think there's a lot of information that we don't have, and a lot of pieces of the puzzle that we don't have."

Payton's comments come after a seventh former Ohio State wrestler said on Saturday that Jordan was aware of alleged sexual abuse taking place on the wrestling team by athletic doctor Richard Strauss.

Jordan has denied having knowledge of the alleged abuse since former wrestlers first told NBC News in a report published last week that Jordan was aware of Strauss’s behavior at the time.

Because apparently 20 years ago it was "alright" to cover up sexual assault, according to a conservative writer at The Federalist.

Conservative media continue to present a compelling case that they're largely intellectually and morally bankrupt.

[Techno-Druid]

Can't wait for the usual group to come in and defend this. "Showering together is just locker room talk" or "it isn't pedophilia unless a court says so".

I definitely agree with you, but...it definitely wouldn't be pedophilia. This was at Ohio State University...

[Dontrike]

I know, I was just tossing out some other stuff they said the last time a republican was embroiled in a sex scandal. Also known as "The One with Sulla & a Pedophile".

[Heladys]

The real news is that the republican hasn't been accused of being the molester. yet.
