I've dealt with the NY Times article several times in this thread. I was responding to YOUR post about CNN's reporting. Please try to stay on topic.

Wrong again. They referenced the document and asserted that the document's contents contained information that could potentially be used to compromise Trump. They KNEW the information was not verifiable.
As far as your claim that CNN didn't report on the contents: they used Buzzfeed for this.
CNN's article They did everything but link to the PDF of the article on Buzzfeed. They also treated all of this info like it was something new. They failed to reference that the info had been around for months and that no one had been able to verify the info in all that time.

Because its not true. They know it wasn't true but they ran with it anyway. And then they spent countless hours of airtime talking about it to try to give it credibility.
The real issue is that the pragmatist in you is cheering for this crap to continue for the next four years.
