http://www.counterpunch.org/2017/04/10/media-promote-baseless-assertions-by-government-officials-of-russian-interference-as-facts/Date Written: 2017-04-25 Publisher: CounterPunch Year Published: 2017 Resource Type: Article Cx Number: CX20677 The headline of a New York Times article published April 6, 2017, "C.I.A. Had Evidence of Russian Effort to Help Trump Earlier Than Believed," misleadingly implies not only that there was an effort by the Russian government to help Donald Trump win the American presidential election but that it is a settled fact that the CIA was in possession of hard evidence to that effect.
