Bullshit. Especially with reporters and news organizations, it's very often public knowledge. Just a few examples of many below.

https://www.theguardian.com/media/20...ia-controversy

https://fortune.com/2023/12/12/sport...ngs-ceo-fired/

https://www.newsweek.com/full-list-r...emarks-1837834

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-65380349

https://www.washingtonpost.com/media...tgomery-fired/

https://www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/ne...training-camp/

What is just as interesting to me as Finn's lame and unfounded accusations: if Solomon wrote false or misleading stories and was "fired" from the Hill for doing so, why are his articles still available to read on the Hill's site? The Hill was supposed to have conducted an "exhaustive review" of Solomon's articles, but the articles haven't been taken down. Examples:

What is just as interesting to me as Finn's lame and unfounded accusations: if Solomon wrote false or misleading stories and was "fired" from the Hill for doing so, why are his articles still available to read on the Hill's site? The Hill was supposed to have conducted an "exhaustive review" of Solomon's articles, but the articles haven't been taken down. Examples:

https://thehill.com/homenews/adminis...n-push-for-us/

https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/...-fetal-tissue/
Because The Hill has some pretty lame journalistic standards. That should be obvious by their willingness to hire a discredited clown like Solomon in the first place and then to keep his articles up after their internal investigation found that he wrote:

"(M)isleading and poorly attributed articles last year that asserted corruption by Joe Biden in his dealings with Ukraine during his time as vice president...

In effect, the Hill said Solomon amplified an inaccurate and one-sided narrative about the Bidens and Ukraine that was fed to him by Giuliani, “facilitated” by businessman Lev Parnas, who was working with Giuliani at the time..."
(the same Giuliani who is facing boatloads of criminal and civil charges and the same Les Parnas who was later convicted for campaign finance crimes, wire fraud and false statements).

https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifes...a77_story.html

Like Fox News, The Hill is unwilling to publish corrections or take down false articles. This unwillingness does not verify these articles, it shows The Hill's lack of journalistic standards (something that was already widely known prior to Solomon's cavalcade of lies).

At least we now know where you got the discredited Burisma story that you've tried to hawk here on a number of occasions. Instead of defending Solomon and his lies, you should perhaps engage in some soul-searching as to why you are so willing to gobble up and then spew such nonsense and lies.

You are nothing but a right wing hack.

You are truly bankrupt when it comes to debating. What you call "defending Solomon and his lies" was simply me asking you to back up your posts that claim he was fired. You've been unable to do that so far, but in multiple post you spew about how Solomon is not credible.

So, when you can't defend your own posts and assertions, you can call others liars. You tell me I'm the one who needs "soul searching" when you're the one posting false info. What a freakin' hypocrite you've become!

You truly have nothing left to add to this segment of the thread, unless you want to take another shot at backing up your claims in earlier posts.

Typical. Can't back up what he posts, so he starts calling other folks names. Laughable.

As expected, these links say nothing about Solomon being fired. But thanks anyway,

The question is and always was whether your source was full of shit, Mike. John Soloman is absolutely full of shit as is the Washington 'Moonie' Times. Get ahold of yourself, dude.
