George Stephanopoulos Has Always Been A Propagandist

The Federalist   

"George Stephanopoulos served as Bill Clinton’s White House communications director and then joined the ranks of the news media to become a shill on behalf of the Democrat Party."

 "It is about time ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos faced consequences for his propaganda; he has always been a Democrat activist masquerading as an “objective journalist.”

"ABC was recently forced to fork over $15 million after Stephanopoulos falsely asserted multiple times that Donald Trump had been found liable for rape, a payout he is reportedly “apoplectic” about. But in light of his career as a far-left media hack, the sum seems like a slap on the wrist.

" 'George Stephanopoulos is who we always thought he was: a partisan tool to the very end,” Curtis Houck, managing editor of MRC NewsBusters, told The Federalist. “There’s only one reason ABC settled: discovery. They were deathly terrified of reaching any point of discovery in which e-mails or texts from Stephanopoulos, his assistants, and the rest of ABC News about the show and week in question would come to light.”

“Needless to say, they would have been damning in showing not only an aversion to Trump, but a disgust for half the country that doesn’t share their ideology,” Houck added.

"While other left-wing propagandists in the corporate media were angry after the settlement, claiming that the $15 million payout “undermines journalists doing their jobs,” blatant defamation has always been illegal. It is also considerably harder to find a reporter guilty of a defamation claim against a public figure like Trump, which suggests that ABC and Stephanopoulos knew what they were doing was illegal and settled to avoid a potential guilty verdict.

"To make matters worse, Stephanopoulos was reportedly warned by producers not to use the word “rape” in his segments, but decided, apparently out of his sense of journalistic duty, to make the false claims anyway.

"But that is not surprising for a person like Stephanopoulos, who was President Bill Clinton’s White House communications director, and then senior advisor, and then joined the ranks of the news media to become a shill on behalf of his party while trying to dupe the American people into believing he is objective.

Bill Clinton’s Fixer

"Back in his White House days, Stephanopoulos was a fixer, shielding Clinton from Paula Jones’ accusations of sexual harassment by claiming she was simply seeking money. He also made calls to friends in the media, successfully pressuring outlets like CNN and NBC not to cover Jones’ news conference." . . .
