How the media misled us about Russiagate w/Jeff Gerth | The Chris Hedges Report

1. Thanks 👍
   If the use of the false information by the Democrats didn't constitute election interference what is the difference between what the Democrats did and election interference?

2. You don't need media to notice that con Don has been fawning like a little chihuahua before psycho Vlad. Bombastic bafoon puts his tail between his legs when Vlad enters the room.

3. What a “balanced “ piece by a person who got paid by Russia for years without criticism of Russia for years

4. Must be a yt personsince you even gotta ask the question gotta as the question.

5. Think of the fingerprints of the power that pulled this off…that belongs to the real enemy.

6. How corrupt is a so called "democracy" when it becomes necessary to defend the fate of the likes of Donald Trump? The US is apparently in the advanced stages of democratic disintegration.

7. It's sad the dems have to lie about Trump. I think if they just let him fail, they would have won honesty. Now they are proven to be so corrupt with the paid off media as Chris states (as they keep calling Trump a liar and corrupt (not that it probably true, but making stuff up just makes the Clinton look more corrupt

8. yeah i notice for all the people who put down trump and call his voters stupid they sure dont say anything about how bad the country did for those 4 years, because they cant! pretty hard to argue with 2 dollar a gallon gas, no inflation, no wars, vets taken care of much better and everybody rich and poor payed less taxes- then you moron democrats seized power and my lower middle class ass went from having the best 4 years ever to having the worst 4 years ever- democrats SUCK!

9. of those 46 nations I'd bet at least 45 have media is mostly run by the cia just like in the US too. the cia funds most media in the world thru NED and other such organs. this stuff actually works. like this is what causes changes in governments and large protests in places like Armenia in 2018 for instance. There is a whole industry unto itself of CIA media just to target "tough nut" nations like Iran.

10. Lets just call it what it. Propaganda. This administration since the clinton era has been using mass media to sway public opinion. The unfortunate fact is that those people who took these packs of lies as truth would rather continue to belive the lies rather than admit they were duped

11. 😆😅🤣😂 H Clinton mala obrovský záujem o funkciu prezidenta USA
    Prvýkrát po dohode sa vzdala v prospech OBAMU druhýkrát vyhral TRUMP. A tak milá dáma sa spojila s tajnými službami a vytvorili plán ktorý normálny človek nemohol pochopiť najmä nie my.Ale američania sú zvláštna sekta tí uveria hocičomu😂😂😂 bez preverenia😅😅😅

12. I can't give this discussian an A+ but rather an A because it presents as fact the DNC "hack." whereas It is a mere allegation, challenged by Consortium News, Sy Hersh, VIPS and implicitly by Julain Assange. Hersh, in a surreptitiously recorded phonecall by RWer Ed Butowsky, stated that his highly placed federal source had looked at an FBI report stating that the FBI had looked at Seth Rich's laptop and obtained contacts between Rich and Wikileaks, indicating the theft a leak more likely than a hack. Hersh dismissed the phonecall as "gossip," but to borrow the vernacular of WaterGate, it constituted a "non-deial denial." VIPS, led by the technical expertise of Bill Binney, produced a forensic meta data analysis claiming that ahack by Guccifer 2.0 was physically impossible, but the speed of transmission for a leak (eg a thumb drive) fit the meta data neatly. Julian Assange, while coyly claiming he would never give up a source, heavily implied that the theft was a leak, as opposed to a hack, and that the source was Seth Rich. On the other side, we have an indictment alleging certain GRU cyber personnel were Guccifer 2.0. As far as I know, the indictment is based on American intelligence sources without hard evidence. I claim such sources are incredible without corroborating physical evidence. If such a hack occurred it would be presumably easy for the NSA to provide hard evidence, since they capture and store all global cyber communications involving Americans. Coupled with the fact that the FBI inexplicably did not independently obtain and check the physical evidence "analyzed" by CrowdsStrike and that no American investigator ever, (eg Mueller} go to London to question about Wikileaks' source on the DNC emails leads me to believe it was indeed a leak and not a hack. It's part of the prevailing narrative that it was a hack, but where are supporting facts other than uncorroborated claims by Western intel sources?

13. holy hell guys. this isn't complicated. The steel dossier was so stupid on its face. You had to be a high school dropout to ever take it seriously. the pro war money laundering uniparty had to get rid of someone they couldn't control. imagine what they'll do to RFK or Cornell West.

14. Multiple people WENT TO PRISON covering for trumps ties to Russia! No matter how hard trump cult members try to to lie themselves there were 100% connections and collusion with Russians. Trump worshipers can lie to themselves all they want but the rest of the world knows what happened.

15. It is so surprising that the Democrats haven't conducted a hate campaign against Chris Hedges. I guess they realize that nobody would believe he became a rightwing extremist MAGA loving Trump supporter. It seems they are just silent about him hoping nobody will notice his criticisms.

16. girthy boy

17. Convictions of members in trumps inner circle, convictions of russian agents and citizens engaged in criminal activity, Muellers report outlining methods of more crimes that the DOJ did not want to follow up on. Even after all this were still listening to people try and debunk trumps various ties to the Kremiln. Irresponsible, and amateurish.

18. I was torn as to whether I should continue my monthly donation, but after hearing this Chris Hedges Report on Russiagate, w/Jeff Gerth, I will continue. Good report.

19. This is really great, especially from a left leaning journalist. I have noticed a lot of guests Chris has on here still have the Trump is a fascist, racist nonsense going on……. Without providing any evidence – people on the left seem to worship everything Chomsky says without question……for the last 25 years I've noticed he subtly takes the side of the establishment – he'll be against certain, approved things. Ive noticed a lot of my liberal friends are like that and they always defer to 'academics' even if it doesn't make logical sense……and say either, 'why do you care ' or that because i haven't done a university degree in said topic my opinion/facts are not valid (even if it is obviously true)

20. They lied, and in next weeks episode.

21. chris! chris! sorry mate, love ya like a brother, and have followed you for many, many moonz, but this piece is not one of ur finest. this Gerth chap, is at best, out to lunch, you might even say this has been a real waste of a half hour, look 4wrd to ur next effort, all the best, over and out!!

22. Generally agree with the presentation but I take issue with your characterization of the DNC emails as a "hack." VIPS (eg Ray McGovern) asserts tat it was a leak, not a hack on the basis of forensic analysis re "Guccifer 2.0" and the claimed hack. Julian Assange has implicitly denied the hacking claim by repeatedly highlighting Seth Rich.. Sy Hersh in a controversial phonecall said there was an FBI report sayings Seth Rich reached out to Wikileaks and offered leaked emails for payment. What is your basis for claiming that it was in fact a hack? Intelligence sources without corroborating hard evidence can not be considered credible evidence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBiV1h7Dm5E

23. Distraction

24. Thanks for getting this out even though sounds like you are not so sure just quickly I thought it was against the law for reporter's journalists to report untrue stories this has been the worst of journalism ever and I really think that Obama and BIDEN are in on this Trump got in the way I honestly think they owe people from all over the world so much I wouldn't doubt if they try to ASINATE PRESIDENT TRUMP

25. We have a huge threat to democracy. It's our CIA FBI and Department of injustice. The go after any thing about Trump. Cover up any thing bad about Biden. This is not a fair Democracy. Either Trump or JFK has to fix this. Biden is part of the problem. Establishment Republicans are even worse. Cutting working class and poor peoples benefits. Voters need to wake up and vote for 3rd party independents for every office. The fake two party system is a one party system for the 1%. Our country needs to be We the people. Not We the 1% like it is now.

26. I want someone to investigate what Biden was doing in Ukraine as Obama's vp. Why his son was on the board of a Ukrainian energy company & how Biden got the prosecutor who was investigating that business sacked. Russiagate, Ukraine, 2020 elections and the conflict in Ukraine – its all connected.

27. Particularly useful point on the new demographic of digital subscribers and their role in this. Hadn't made this link until now. Many thanks for this and all your work.

28. Please do not make Trump out to be a scapegoat he could have stood up and fought against what was happening to him he chose not to fight against the deepstate

29. Please cover all elections up to Reagan and what he did with the hostages in Iran thank you

30. I was Rabbiting On to the President of the International Translator's Association, later flown to the Turkish Ship after it was Intercepted by IDF Commandos on its way to the Gaza Strip, defined by her husband as The Sceptic, or by me as She Who Knows. Now the Sorbonne Graduate, Septieme Arondissement, Daughter of Two Sorbonne Medical School Professor, has Un Certain Je Ne Sais Pas Quois, if you'll excuse the French, which I'm happy to Butcher after 1985 and the Rainbow Warrior sinking. "How do you know that?", with an Exquisitely Executed Subtlety of Quisical Vocal Intonation and the Faintest Hint of an Uprised Sneer at the Corner of The Mouth. "I Read it in The Newspaper!" The Cynical Dull Double Entendre, also Perfected by her Husband The President of Business International : "You read it in the Newspaper", in a Flat Tone of Utter Dismissal. Now that was in about 1988 and I stopped reading "News" Papers a Long Time Ago.

31. So where are the pee tapes?
    Ha ha
    The lie worked once and same technique is used today so as a citizen all i can do is not rely on one source of information and never gatcha one liner comments.

32. At 20:28 he lied, Russia wanted to proceed in discovery and it was the US who chose to back off.

33. All of these podcasters and great little YouTube channels that are doing real journalism need to unite and have a common source of donations / investing in by the people of all countries if real journalism is to survive. It's also important that it survives globaly because we all share and live on one planet for now.
