O'Keefe is a serial lier who has been legally sanctioned for his misrepresentations. He's hardly credible and it's concerning that what should be our most trusted person, the president, is citing him via spokespeople.
EDIT: she even admits it might not be true. She just wants to push propaganda in hopes of discrediting their political media opponents. This is authoritarian and unacceptable.

there's two sides to this, only one is presenting evidence for their claims (video evidence at that). Who do you think any reasonable person will side with?

The side "presenting evidence" is being doubted by the people citing his evidence. I think the people can smell that bullshit from a mile away. The guy with "evidence" is known to selectively edit videos and has been sued successfully for doing so. He was found to edit videos in a criminal manner. He is not reasonably credible.

Ahh! you are right!
We should all just tune into CNN for our daily news brainwashing!

This has nothing to do with the credibility of the white house. That's deflection. You're deflecting. CNN is not good. But that has nothing to do with the white house not being credible or having a credible narrative, nor does it mean attacking a news network for being political opponents of the president is an alright thing to do. We keep the standard of the president higher than that. This white house is degrading that standard

This is a news guy talking about business. It's the same shit Fox does. What point does this prove that the white house is using a known slanderer for proof while saying that the evidence might or might not be true. Those quotes in no way discredit that the white house is citing this while acknowledging it might not be true.

I'm not sure you looked, but I've been a liberal here since I created the account. Of course, it's hard to say anything without "muh shareblew" bullshit being thrown at me. Is your ideology so weak that it can't face unpaid opposition without being disproven? Is your leaders leadership so weak that he needs an army of devout deniers to protect it.

Day in day out the news conferences are the same. It's the media yelling at the spokesman about "you don't want us to report Russia involvement." And the White House saying, "how about reporting something else."
What does the media think is gonna happen when they keep harassing whoever is up there trying to answer questions when they come at them like they're about to fight them. With the same ol' Russia shit. And then the MSM gets all indignant when you call them on it.
I wish they'd shut them out but then the presstitutes use the ol' standby, "freedom of the press" to shame the White House. How 'bout reporting some other stories instead of beating a dead horse. Fuck the press. They're hucksters of phony junk news just for ratings and everyone can see it.
