Now the favorite is, in response to a defamation suit popped on her by OAN, claims that her words are 'opinion'. Kind of a tough road to hoe with those words imo.

Base source (Linky here) is kind of a wild place; a fantastic financial blog intermingled with libertarian slants on the world at large.

I noted previously that I try not to source opinion blogs (with some dude railing on me here for that, for some reason), but overall this is in fact one. The Maddow full metal jacket retreat was featured here, and it seemed easiest to post to it as such.

You think I was railing on you for trying to avoid using blogs?

No.

Knock yourself out.

You got pissy on me on one of my previous statements to that effect; i.e. that I try and not practice that 'link to opinion blogs' thingy. You got riled up because I mentioned it (the horrors.... sheer horrors).

And, that is in line with the active verb of my sentence, i.e. '[me] not[ing]' that practice. I did so here, because the link, is in fact, an opinion site. And the touchstone retort to such a link, is, funnily enough, that is an opinion piece.

You got your knickers in a wad over my previous statement that I try not to source from such places -- so I thought I would defuse your knicker wadding. Apparently for naught.

As for a history search -- knock yourself out, my friend.

No twisted knickers here.

I called you out for using an opinion piece multiple times to support theories in Ukraine-Biden. You’re free to do that, but don’t be shocked when someone points out the obvious hypocrisy when, in that instance, you tried to be high and mighty about what sources you use.
