A House Divided
The media, the elites, the entitled – joined by the managers in our managerial oligarchy –those who lost a periodic election have embarked upon a strategy of annihilation. It seems that they would embrace national failure, even if it means their own destruction. Their weapon of choice? Poison. Poisoning the well is; “a rhetorical technique and logical fallacy that uses the association of negative emotions to distract a subject from actual evidence in an argument. Poisoning the well is an appeal to hate.” | Joel D. Hirst's Blog

Your Say
Poisoning the well poisons ALL of the well.
The well in question is the MSM well and the past partakers have recognized the poison and have moved on.
The MSM's problem was that they thought they were the only well in town. Arrogance and ego does that to ya.
Now we get the news we want and the MSM can drown in their self made poison for all we care.
They just don't matter no more.
As they flounder and go down for the 300th time they still aren't convinced, but we don't even look back, because we are busy looking forward.

@Bill Jones, that 3rd paragraph from the end is littered with lies, why the focus on Assad?
