6. How did we, the general public, get the obviously false information about Harvard capitulating

by agreeing to pay $500,000,000?

It seems simple enough to have reported the truth, had the press just asked Harvard President Garber, is this true? And, his response would be no. How difficult would that have been?

It's obvious this Administration lied to the American public via the press that continues to capitulate to the Felon by just regurgitating what has been fed to them by "un-named Whitehouse sources". You are not reporters, you are spokespeople. An embarrassment to real journalists.

I will tell you what I used to tell my daughter when she didn't want to do her homework.
"Repeat after me, would you like fries with that?" Because, that's the only job you will be qualified for if you don't exercise some self discipline and do the job at hand.
