“[A] new consensus has emerged in the press … that truth isn’t a process of collective discovery, but an orthodoxy already known to an enlightened few whose job is to inform everyone else.” Bari Weiss, former op-ed staff editor and writer at The New York Times.
On July 27, 2020, several social media platforms including Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter took down a viral video of a press conference held by the group America’s Frontline Doctors.
According to reports, the three social media giants flagged and removed the group’s press conference video (held in front of the Supreme Court in Washington, DC) for spreading “misinformation” regarding COVID-19.
Before the video stream of the press conference by America’s Frontline Doctors was removed by Facebook, it was on the giant’s platform for eight hours and viewed by over 17 million people, making it the most viewed video in the world on Facebook.
CNN’s Democrat-Party propagandist Oliver Darcy reported that Facebook removed the video for “sharing false information,” YouTube removed it for violating “community guidelines,” and Twitter removed it for not being in line with “covid policy.”
Twitter not only suspended and locked down Breitbart News for posting stories about the press conference on the giant’s platform, but Twitter censors were so brazen that they removed the President of the United States’ and his son Donald’s retweets of short clips from the doctors’ press conference.
The press conference fallout wasn’t limited to social media censorship. On Thursday night, Dr. Simone Gold, a Los Angeles-based physician who spoke at the press conference, was fired by her employer for expressing her medical opinion regarding the use of hydroxychloroquine in treating COVID-19 patients.
“Frontline doctors like myself, we’re seeing patients not get what they need, we’re seeing doctor-patient relationships being completely eroded and governors are empowering pharmacies to overrule doctors who’ve had conversations with their patients. It’s really something that Americans should all be alarmed about.” Dr. Simone Gold, board-certified physician and attorney
In addition to the press conference video being removed, Gold, founder of America’s Frontline Doctors, said that group’s website was “completely and arbitrarily shut down” by Squarespace, the site’s website host. Gold added that the group now has a new website at Americasfrontlinedoctorsummit.com.
Although the Fauci-WHO zealots on social media have censored and removed the video of America’s Frontline Doctors’ Summit press conference, the video has been posted up on BitChute, a free speech version of YouTube, and can be seen here.
The 46-minute press conference video was only part of Monday’s events. The summit covered seven hours of detailed doctor presentations on treating the Wuhan virus.
The video below is Session 1 of American Frontline Doctors’ Summit posted online by TPPatriots. The sessions’ purpose “is to empower Americans to stop living in fear.”
Virginia state senator Amanda Chase has sounded the alarm for patriots planning to attend Monday’s Lobby Day Second Amendment rally in Richmond.
According to a post on Chase’s Facebook page, Ralph Northam, Democrat Governor of Virginia, intends to cause problems for patriots at Monday’s Second Amendment rally.
The post warns patriots who plan to attend the rally that Northam is setting them up to be arrested and held as domestic terrorists. According to the post, the groundwork has been laid “to make the entire movement look like insurrection.”
The post suggests that Northam is looking for any sort of disruption as an excuse to arrest rally goers as domestic terrorists.
“If people show up wearing any kind of uniform, patch or other symbol on their clothing signifying they belong to a militia and something goes wrong, you could/will be held as a domestic terrorist. If anyone steps out of line, all it takes is one person, it may even be a government plant….if that plant does anything to disrupt the rally, you could/will be arrested as a domestic terrorist.”
According to the post, tomorrow’s rally in Virginia will be used as a trial balloon “to put the rest of the nation on notice of what will happen to you, if you resist.”
The post goes on to say that patriots and supporters of gun rights “are being played by a well oiled machine, these things have been in the works for many years. … they are coming after us full speed ahead and they aren’t even trying to hide it anymore.”
The post concludes with a warning to “keep your head on a swivel” and keep abreast of everything going on around you.
“We were told not once, but several times by the current President, ‘It’s Not Me they are after, It’s You, The American People.'” Facebook post, Virginia state senator Amanda Chase
The actions by the Democrats over the last few years clearly show that Trump was right.
In 2017 James Hodgkinson of Belleville, Illinois, shot Republican lawmakers, including Louisiana Representative Steve Scalise, during baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia.
Four years later the campaign has another Trump-hating extremist Democrat activist working on Sanders’ 2020 presidential campaign in Iowa.
Project Veritas just released two videos showing Kyle Jurek, a field organizer who works for Sanders’ campaign, calling for violence if Donald Trump is re-elected President in 2020.
“[I]f Bernie doesn’t get the nomination or it goes to a second round at the DNC Convention, f*cking Milwaukee will burn. It’ll start in Milwaukee and then … when the police push back on that, other cities will just f*cking [explode]. …Yeah, I mean, we don’t have a lot of time left. We have to f*cking save, like, human civilization ”— Kyle Jurek, field organizer for Bernie Sanders’ 2020 campaign for President
In the undercover videos, Jurek promises there will be violence if Sanders isn’t nominated on the first round at the DNC Convention.
“Remember what happened when McGovern got f**ked in Chicago … ? Riots. F**king people getting beaten by the cops. The cops are gonna be the ones that are getting f**king beaten in Milwaukee. They’re gonna call up the national guard for that s**t. I promise you that.”
Like Stalin, Jurek has few qualms when it comes to breaking the proverbial eggs for the omelet.
“The only thing that fascists [the GOP and Trump] understand is violence. So the only way to confront them is with violence. … There are things that are more important than the rule of law in the United States, when it comes down to the existence of the human race.” — Kyle Jurek
If Jurek is to be believed, he’s not the only far-left extremist staffer working for the Sanders campaign in Iowa. Jurek identifies four additional fellow travelers and “a lot” of Antifa members in Sanders’ Iowa campaign who are “definitely further left than the Democratic Socialists” who support Sanders.
Why do fanatical leftist revolutionaries like Jurek and Hodgkinson find a home in Sanders’ presidential campaigns? Are Sanders’ presidential campaigns attracting them or are they creating them?
For the most part, the major media and the punditry on television and talk radio have done a gross disservice to the American people by either ignoring or downplaying these two undercover videos.
Everyone should watch these videos so they know just how extremely dangerous people like Jurek are to the American people, the nation’s Constitution, and its republican form of government.
It’s clear from the videos that Jurek is a communist revolutionary and a would-be terrorist. If he were a staffer on any Republican campaign, major media and its punditry would make Jurek a household name and the Veritas videos would go viral on the Internet and be playing ad nauseam on the alphabet channels’ radio and television networks.
Then again, we all know that we’re not in Kansas anymore. Don’t we?
A few days ago I received a letter with an obituary of an acquaintance who had died a couple of months ago. For several years she was “on the wagon” and kept away from the drugs and alcohol by busying herself with church activities and AA meetings.
During those years of sobriety I would speak with her on the phone and would send her money periodically to help with her living expenses. The last time we spoke she was rambling, slurring her words, and dropping hints about needing money.
Somewhere in her disjointed ramblings, she mentioned that she had relapsed and was taking medication to help with her pain and suffering. Before saying goodbye, I told her, “I’m sorry, but I don’t know what to say to you anymore.”
I mention this story in passing because for the last ten years I’ve been doing everything I can think of to convey biblical and political truths to patriots and evangelicals on social media, and I’m sorry, but I don’t know what to say anymore because the truth doesn’t seem to matter to them.
It makes me think of what Paul wrote in his second letter to the Thessalonians regarding the prophesied Second Coming, “God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness” (2:11,12).
America’s patriots and evangelicals live in perilous times where the dawning of each new day is fraught with danger and brings with it an imminent risk of disaster. But rather than having ears for the actual truth itself, they seem to have itching ears for “the truths” they want to hear and with which they agree. They don’t seem to know that they are blind to the truth and being led by blind guides or care that they are being deceived by deceivers.
Lear’s lament rings just as true for the 21st Century and it did for the 17th. ‘Tis the times’ plague, when madmen lead the blind.’
Barack Obama and the Democrat Party have severed America’s ties from her Christian moorings and set her adrift on a sea of hostility, violence, and turmoil. This nation is now under God’s judgment, and she can’t be saved no matter how many times Donald Trump and his enthusiastic supporters say she will be made “great again.”
The truth be told, when Ronald Reagan died, America’s greatness died with him.
The Post reported that Leigh Corfman, who was 14 years old in February 1979, was with her mother when she met 32-year-old Roy Moore outside a courtroom in Etowah County, Alabama.
According to the Post, Corfman and her mother, Nancy Wells, said that Moore approached them, introduced himself, started talking, and offered to watch the girl while the mother went into the courtroom for a child custody hearing.
The Post story then transitions to Moore’s alleged conversation with Corfman outside the courtroom and doesn’t mention the custody hearing again except briefly near the end of the piece where the Post verified through divorce records that Wells attended a hearing at the courthouse in February 1979.
The Post did not report any details involving the child custody hearing because the hearing involved the custody of Corfman who had become a problem child for Wells, who was in the courtroom that day to sign over custody to Corfman’s father.
that the court ordered the 14-year-old Corfman to move in with her father beginning March 4, 1979.
The Post story did not mention the court documents that show Corfman was exhibiting “disciplinary and behavioral problems,” which were cited in the joint petition to change custody as the reason for the court-ordered move.
The documents also show that Corfman’s father lived in Ohatchee, about 22 miles from Gadsden where Corfman and Wells lived, and that he and Wells agreed that moving Corfman to Ohatchee to live with him would be better for the girl.
The Post reported that Corfman said her alleged sexual encounter with Moore had caused her to become reckless in her behavior as a teenager.
“I felt responsible. I felt like I had done something bad. And it [sexual encounter with Moore] kind of set the course for me doing other things that were bad,” Corfman said.
According to the Post, Corfman’s “teenage life became increasingly reckless with drinking, drugs, boyfriends, and a suicide attempt when she was 16.”
The Post would have readers believe the custody hearing, where Moore allegedly met Corfman and arranged meetings with her outside her mother’s home, was something extraneous that had nothing to do with Corfman’s allegations or added anything important to them.
Had the Post reported what went on in the custody hearing, the information contained in the court documents would have contradicted and refuted Corfman’s claim that her reckless behavior as a teenager resulted from her alleged sexual encounters with Moore.
Over a year later, Wells filed a new petition, which stated that Corfman’s “disciplinary problem has improved greatly,” and that she wanted custody of her daughter again. The court agreed and custody was granted October 15, 1980.
Corfman’s improved behavior described in Wells’ petition for custody clearly refutes what Corfman told the Post. The Post reported Corfman said that after her alleged sexual encounter with Moore in ’79, her life “became increasingly reckless with drinking, drugs, boyfriends, and a suicide attempt when she was 16.”
There was but one court case in February 1979, and it was February 21 when Wells voluntarily gave up custody of Corfman to Corfman’s father.
The Post’s November 9 story left out pertinent information contained in the court documents detailing what had taken place that day in a custody hearing when a 14-yar-old girl and her mother claim they met Roy Moore.
It’s shameful that the Post would omit such crucial information to hide the truth from readers. It matters not if the omission of information was intentional or if it was the result of negligence and shoddy research. Such reporting is inexcusable.
Yet the Post’s top editor Marty Baron came out and defended the reporting, calling it a “meticulously reported story about Roy Moore.”
Is it any wonder President Trump and Roy Moore call The Washington Post “fake news?”
Moore Accuser’s Former Lawyer’s Firm has Ties to Democrat Party
By Jerry A. Kane
Leigh Corfman, the main accuser of Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore, was, until recently, represented by a lawyer whose law firm has ties to the state’s Democrat Party.
Sexton’s Alabama law firm, located in Riverchase, an upscale section of the Birmingham suburb, Hoover, is known for mediating and administering multi-billion and multi-million dollar mass tort and class action cases.
So, how does 53 year-old Corfman, who has a history of financial problems and bankruptcies and works as a customer service representative at a payday loan business, end up with a lawyer from a firm that specializes in the administration of mass tort and class action settlements and is tied at the hip to the state’s Democrat Party?
For that matter, why would Sexton or his law firm take a case like Corfman’s in the first place? And if he or his firm was paid for services rendered, who paid the bill? And why, pray tell, is he no longer representing her; in fact, when exactly did Sexton become Corfman’s lawyer to being with?
The Washington Post (WAPO) was first to publish Corfman’s unproven allegations against Roy Moore. The Post’s story that featured Corfman’s salacious accusations was published November 9.
Also published November 9 was an AL.com article identifying, Eddie Sexton, as a Hoover attorney representing Corfman:
“An attorney for Leigh Corfman, whose story of a sexual encounter with Roy Moore when he was 32 and she was 14, broke today, said Corfman stands by her story.
Hoover attorney Eddie Sexton told AL.com that Corfman has wanted to publicly talk about the time in 1979 when Moore dated her, but never felt like it was the right time.”
In the November 9 AL.com piece, Sexton said that Corfman had been talking with WAPO reporters for several weeks before WAPO’s November 9 story appeared, which WAPO echoed in its November 9 story:
“Over the ensuing three weeks, two Post reporters contacted and interviewed the four women. All were initially reluctant to speak publicly but chose to do so after multiple interviews …”
In addition to Corfman, WAPO reporters also interviewed three other women, Wendy Miller, Debbie Wesson Gibson, and Gloria Thacker Deason for their November 9 story. None of these women accused Moore of inappropriate sexual contact, and to my knowledge, none of them had attorneys present when they told their stories to WAPO reporters.
Obviously, Sexton’s services had been retained before WAPO published its November 9 story. Questions of when Corfman retained the services of an attorney, or why she retained an attorney went unasked by WAPO reporters.
Corfman submitted an “open letter” published November 28 at AL.com. In it she echoed what her mother, Nancy Wells, had told Arron Klein ofBreitbart News November 12.
In their November 9 story, WAPO reporters admit that the four women were initially reluctant to speak to WAPO reporters, and that it was WAPO reporters who sought out the women and made the initial contact:
“Over the ensuing three weeks, two Post reporters contacted and interviewed the four women.”
If the women didn’t initiate contact with WAPO reporters, how did they learn of Moore’s alleged relationships with teenage girls?
“While reporting a story in Alabama about supporters of Moore’s Senate campaign, a Post reporter heard that Moore allegedly had sought relationships with teenage girls.”
Shazam! Serendipity, thy name is Bezos. Unreported 40-year-old allegations just fell out the mouths of Moore supporters to an all-ears WAPO reporter working on a story about Moore supporters during Moore’s Senate campaign.
Lady Luck wasn’t just smiling on WAPO reporters, she was grinning like Cheshire Cat. WAPO reporters didn’t say how they found the women to corroborate what the reporter had heard at the Moore rally?
It was yet another serendipitous find. Voilà! WAPO reporters just happened to stumble upon Corfman, a Republican supporter of Trump who voted for him for President in ’16, and was at that very moment ready to break 38 years of silence, lawyer up, and dump a ton of salacious allegations about Moore just a few weeks outside of a crucial Senate election. Eureka! The sleuths found the kill shot.
What would raise an eyebrow on most people regarding the timing of Corfman’s allegations was nothing more than a facial tic on the WAPO reporters. Corfman, the self-identified Republican and Trump supporter, could’ve come forth with her allegations a month earlier during the Republican primary when Moore was running against Luther Strange—who Trump supported, and that would’ve helped the Republican Party and the Trump agenda.
Instead, Corfman waited until Moore won the primary and was pitted against a pro-partial-birth abortion, gun grabbing leftist Democrat before coming out with her salacious allegations and putting a Republican incumbent’s Senate seat in play for the Democrat Party.
It must not have occurred to the WAPO reporters to ask why a Trump-supporting Republican would turn against her party and president to aid the Democrat Party and help elect a leftist Democrat.
WAPO reporters didn’t ask Corfman a lot of probing or relevant questions. Corfman told them that Moore had phoned her not long after they’d met in 1979 and that she had talked with Moore on her phone in her bedroom.
Telephones weren’t that commonplace in 14-year-old girls’ bedrooms back in ‘79, but the WAPO reporters didn’t seem to possess that knowledge and just took Corfman’s word for it.
But the truth came out when Breitbart’s Arron Klein interviewed Corfman’s mother who said that her daughter didn’t have a phone in her bedroom at the time.
Corfman also told the Post that she had met Moore at Alcott Road and Riley Street, which she said was “around the corner” from her mother’s house in Gadsden. Once again, the WAPO reporters took Corfman’s word for it and didn’t bother to check how far away from Corfman’s mother’s house those streets were.
As it turns out, the Alcott Road and Riley Street intersection was not just “around the corner”; it was almost a mile away, and, at the time, across a major thoroughfare.
Corfman told the Post that she first met Moore while sitting on a wooden bench with her mother outside a courtroom in Etowah County, Alabama. Moore, a 32 year-old assistant district attorney at the time, had an office down the hall from the courtroom.
She said that she had gone out with Moore twice. The first time he told her she was pretty and kissed her. The second time he touched her over her bra and underpants and guided her hand over his underwear to touch his penis.
Corfman said the encounters with Moore had caused her to become increasingly reckless as a teenager. She began drinking, taking drugs, having boyfriends, and attempted suicide when she was 16 years old.
To verify Corfman’s allegations, WAPO reporters looked at divorce records from February 1979 and found that Corfman’s mother did attend a hearing at the courthouse. They also confirmed that Moore had an office down the hall from the courtroom. And that’s all the verification they needed to prove that Corfman was telling the truth.
Had the WAPO reporters spent a bit more time reading the court documents, they would have found only one court case for February 1979, and it occurred February 21. In that case, Corfman’s mother voluntarily relinquished custody of Corfman to her father.
The custody documents cite Corfman’s “disciplinary and behavioral problems” as the reason for the change of custody from Corfman’s mother to her father. Both parents agreed that 14-year-old Corfman would be better off living with her father. Based on these court documents, Corfman’s behavioral problems began before her alleged encounters with Moore.
Obviously, the WAPO reporters did not carefully vet Corfman or take pains to investigate her allegations. They really weren’t looking to verify the accuracy of Corfman’s story or to determine the truth of her allegations.
Their job was to create and craft a narrative that would successfully destroy Moore and keep him out of the Senate. They needed salacious allegations to push that narrative, and Corfman’s story had to appear credible and sound believable.
The credibility of Corfman’s allegations relies on her memory of 38-year-old events and her ability to accurately recount the details surrounding those events, and thus far she’s been inaccurate about several of those details. These inaccuracies undermine her salacious allegations as well as her overall credibility and character.
The Post reported that Corfman’s had three divorces, three bankruptcies, and multiple misdemeanor charges. And she admits that “There is no one here that doesn’t know that I’m not an angel.”
And several people from Alabama who say they know her would disagree. They have taken to Facebook and Twitter to say that Corfman has a history of making false sexual allegations. According to their posts, Corfman has falsely alleged that several pastors at various churches have made sexual advances toward her.
Now that Moore accuser Beverly Young Nelson came out today and admitted that she had forged a portion of the high school yearbook she and attorney Gloria Allred used as proof of her salacious accusations against Moore, Corfman is now the last accuser standing.
WAPO’s November 9 bombshell piece was a created narrative crafted by WAPO reporters designed to destroy Roy Moore’s reputation and Senate candidacy.
Tuesday’s special election will determine whether or not they’ve succeeded. God help us if they do.

LESTER HOLT AND HILLARY CLINTON TEAM UP TO DEBATE DONALD TRUMP
NBC News’ Lester Holt channeled CNN’s Candy Crowley on Monday night during the first presidential debate of 2016 between the Republican Party nominee Donald Trump and the Democrat Party nominee Hillary Clinton.
During the 2012 second presidential debate, Crowley “corrected” Mitt Romney and agreed with Barack Obama that he had called the September 11 anniversary attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya, an act of terrorism during his Rose Garden press conference following the attack. Crowley’s “fact-check” intrusion was incorrect as she would later admit.
As the debate moderator for the first presidential debate in 2016, Holt abandoned any pretense of objectivity, making Crowley’s disgraceful performance in 2012 look ethical by comparison.
Throughout the debate, Holt asked Donald Trump questions that mimicked Clinton campaign talking points. Holt not only matched Crowley’s fact checking incompetence, but he also exceeded her impudence when he entered the fray himself and argued with Trump about tax records, Obama’s birth certificate, and opposition to the Iraq War.
The Holt-Clinton tag team kept Trump on the defensive for much of the debate, preventing important issues such as ObamaCare, illegal immigration, the importation of Syrian refugees, the Clinton Foundation, and Clinton’s deleted emails and illegal email server from being introduced or getting traction.
Holt intentionally misled millions of America’s electorate. He shamelessly shilled for Clinton and never asked her any tough questions; yet many of his peers in the news media and from the chattering classes praised his performance as moderator.
The man who said to vote your conscience and to vote for the candidate who best upholds Constitutional principles was resoundingly booed exiting the convention stage by party delegates.
Conversely the male who heads the PayPal corporation currently boycotting North Carolina because of its law restricting men from using women’s bathrooms and who shamelessly declared his pride for being a homosexual was applauded, cheered, and given a standing ovation by the delegates at the convention.
Those delegates who booed Ted Cruz and cheered Peter Thiel don’t belong to the party of Lincoln and Reagan nor do they represent its principles and values.
Those delegates belong to the Party of Trump and represent his progressive principles and New York values.
Trump has said on several occasions that he doesn’t need the party’s conservative base to win in November and doesn’t want their vote.
So I am honoring Mr. Trump’s request to not vote for him, and I encourage every principled conservative, evangelical, and patriot to do likewise.
What Conservative, Evangelical, and Patriotic Americans Should Know about Donald Trump but Are Afraid to Ask
By Jerry A. Kane
The American public has been made privy to Donald Trump’s life throughout his adult hood. The media focus on Trump has been so pervasive it’s left behind a trail of headlines and feature stories that provides ample evidence he is unfit to be President of the United States. For those conservative, evangelical, and patriotic Americans who want to know the truth about Trump because they care about the survival of this Constitutional Republic, I’ve compiled a rather lengthy list of articles, commentaries, and videos for your perusal.
Although the list is large, it is by no means exhaustive. The news and feature articles are not gossip or rumor-based, Roger-Stone-fed National Enquirer hit pieces; they are based on facts and actual interviews conducted with the mogul himself and are posted online at newspaper and magazine websites.
Most conservative, evangelical, and patriotic Americans are not authoritarians or fascists, but the same could have been said about most conservative, evangelical, and patriotic Germans who lived in 1920s and 1930s Germany. And they ended up supporting Hitler and the Nazi Party because the Nazis promoted a religious, political, and national vision that they found appealing and agreeable.
Trump is a master showman and a marketing guru. Manipulation is what he does, and he sees nothing morally wrong in being dishonest and deceitful to promote himself.
“The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people’s fantasies. … I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration — and a very effective form of promotion.”—Donald Trump, The Art of the Deal
Trump followers see him as a political outsider, a larger-than-life messiah and superman standing for truth, justice, and the American dream. They believe he will overturn the tables of the moneychangers to “make America great again” and bring an end to the political corruption and cronyism in government.
The problem is Trump has been (until he decided to run for president last year) a crony capitalist, left-leaning Democrat with New York values who has endorsed and funded corrupt politicians and has used the corrupt political system to amass wealth and build an empire. The truth is Trump doesn’t have any conservative bonafides, and what’s worse he’s a congenital liar. Why any conservative, evangelical, or patriotic American would believe anything he says is mystifying.
Yet Trump has followers who are more than willing to proclaim his propaganda and repeat his lies and allegations with zero evidence any of them are true. His followers parrot his empty slogans and fascist ideas without question or second thought, and they zealously attack his critics as mortal enemies who must be destroyed.
Any conservative, evangelical, or patriot who musters the nerve to tell the truth about Trump is immediately branded a traitor to the cause and marked for verbal abuse on social networking and media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
Trump has made it dangerous for conservative, evangelical, and tea party Republicans to criticize him. It matters little who they are or what they have actually done over the years to further constitutional principles or the conservative agenda. They must bow and kiss the Donald’s ring or suffer the stones and arrows of personal attacks from the slings and quivers of his followers and paid henchmen. The upshot is Donald Trump’s masquerade as a conservative Republican has succeeded in damn-near destroying the GOP’s conservative base.
For conservative, evangelical, and tea party Republicans to bow and scrape before a man who changes political parties as often as Hugh Heffner does girlfriends would be laughable on it’s face were it not so mystifying and heart wrenching. Why they would promote a man who proudly identifies himself with leftist New York values is nothing short of Churchillian, a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma. The survival of this Republic rests on the faint hope that these conservative, evangelical, and tea party Republicans are merely ignorant and not willfully so.
“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”—Abraham Lincoln

WAPO’s Roy Moore Story Alleging Sexual Encounter with 14-Year-Old Girl Omits Crucial Information
Jerry A. Kane
The Washington Post’s (WaPo) November 9 story, “Woman says Roy Moore initiated sexual encounter when she was 14, he was 32” leaves out crucial information and hides the truth from readers.
The Post reported that Leigh Corfman, who was 14 years old in February 1979, was with her mother when she met 32-year-old Roy Moore outside a courtroom in Etowah County, Alabama.
According to the Post, Corfman and her mother, Nancy Wells, said that Moore approached them, introduced himself, started talking, and offered to watch the girl while the mother went into the courtroom for a child custody hearing.
The Post story then transitions to Moore’s alleged conversation with Corfman outside the courtroom and doesn’t mention the custody hearing again except briefly near the end of the piece where the Post verified through divorce records that Wells attended a hearing at the courthouse in February 1979.
The Post did not report any details involving the child custody hearing because the hearing involved the custody of Corfman who had become a problem child for Wells, who was in the courtroom that day to sign over custody to Corfman’s father.
The Post failed to tell its readers:
that Wells had been divorced from Robert R. Corfman since 1974,
that the case to change custody was amicable and involved a joint petition by both parents, and
that the court ordered the 14-year-old Corfman to move in with her father beginning March 4, 1979.
The Post story did not mention the court documents that show Corfman was exhibiting “disciplinary and behavioral problems,” which were cited in the joint petition to change custody as the reason for the court-ordered move.
The documents also show that Corfman’s father lived in Ohatchee, about 22 miles from Gadsden where Corfman and Wells lived, and that he and Wells agreed that moving Corfman to Ohatchee to live with him would be better for the girl.
The Post reported that Corfman said her alleged sexual encounter with Moore had caused her to become reckless in her behavior as a teenager.
“I felt responsible. I felt like I had done something bad. And it [sexual encounter with Moore] kind of set the course for me doing other things that were bad,” Corfman said.
According to the Post, Corfman’s “teenage life became increasingly reckless with drinking, drugs, boyfriends, and a suicide attempt when she was 16.”
The Post would have readers believe the custody hearing, where Moore allegedly met Corfman and arranged meetings with her outside her mother’s home, was something extraneous that had nothing to do with Corfman’s allegations or added anything important to them.
Had the Post reported what went on in the custody hearing, the information contained in the court documents would have contradicted and refuted Corfman’s claim that her reckless behavior as a teenager resulted from her alleged sexual encounters with Moore.
Over a year later, Wells filed a new petition, which stated that Corfman’s “disciplinary problem has improved greatly,” and that she wanted custody of her daughter again. The court agreed and custody was granted October 15, 1980.
Corfman’s improved behavior described in Wells’ petition for custody clearly refutes what Corfman told the Post. The Post reported Corfman said that after her alleged sexual encounter with Moore in ’79, her life “became increasingly reckless with drinking, drugs, boyfriends, and a suicide attempt when she was 16.”
There was but one court case in February 1979, and it was February 21 when Wells voluntarily gave up custody of Corfman to Corfman’s father.
The Post’s November 9 story left out pertinent information contained in the court documents detailing what had taken place that day in a custody hearing when a 14-yar-old girl and her mother claim they met Roy Moore.
It’s shameful that the Post would omit such crucial information to hide the truth from readers. It matters not if the omission of information was intentional or if it was the result of negligence and shoddy research. Such reporting is inexcusable.
Yet the Post’s top editor Marty Baron came out and defended the reporting, calling it a “meticulously reported story about Roy Moore.”
Is it any wonder President Trump and Roy Moore call The Washington Post “fake news?”
