Yes I agree. It appears as nothing more than another MSM hit piece.

“Instead of the words “science-based” or “evidence-based,” analysts were told they could use instead: The “CDC bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes,” the newspaper [Washington Post] reported.”
What?
My bad.

When you people consider Fox News the acme of journalism, no wonder all real news sources are "fake news" to you.

Another MSM unidentified source...
"A former C.D.C. official, who asked not to be identified, said that some staff members were upset because the purported ban suggested that their work was being politicized.
“I don’t know exactly who said what in the meeting, but I have to assume this came from H.H.S. people, because they’re the ones who have to make the budget,” the former official said."
Because, you know, the Republicans won't play ball with anyone who they think doesn't subscribe to their own stunted, uneducated beliefs.

But this cant be confirmed right? Either WAPO (the media outlet that advertised for people to come forward against Moore) or the anonymous "OFFICIALS" could be false and no one would ever know. Yellow journalism!

So all Trump spokesmen are liars? Do you realize just how biased and stupid that sounds?
