How is the "burden of proof" on the people being accused? Guilty until proven innocent is an insane standard by a supposed journalist.
Taylor is 57 years old until she proves she's not.
How can you criticize her article when there’s a GENOCIDE going on?!?!
I have a copy of Taylor’s credit card number and it ends in 2756, now if she wants to prove me wrong she should privately send me her credit card so I can retract this statement.
1:34 every single time I've heard someone respond "That's a good/great question." It's never been followed by a good/great response.
The "I think you're confused" line is so indicative to her entire thought process as an investigative journalist. Most people with integrity will react by saying "maybe I misspoke" "I was unclear" "I might be misunderstanding what you are saying" or "based on what I have, I'm led to believe". These phrases aren't concessions on the actual point, but they point to someone recognizing that they don't know everything. And when it comes to an investigation, it is impossible to know absolutely everything. But instead, Taylor will push everything onto the opposition: it's not me, YOU are the one that's confused. It's just disheartening to see the behavior of the far left. I used to be like that. You see this candidates that everyone is calling great, but you find some way to tear them down with a purity test so you can act superior. These people are like a clique in high school wearing their virtues like the newest fashion trend so they can fit in with the cool kids.
"Everyone keeps misunderstanding my reporting and it in no way reflects on how well I reported on this topic"
"I have shown no proof that my baseless accusations are true, but they haven't shown proof that they are false so I win." ?????
Wow, that was painful to listen to. She was not prepared at all for this conversation
So, self-admittedly, she wrote this article to identify people she THINKS are not pro-palestine so they become easier targets for harrasment? Beautiful.
