TKC TOLD YOU SO!!! KANSAS CITY STAR CAUGHT PUBLISHING CONSULTANT FAKE NEWS ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP BUILDING NEW SINGLE-TERMINAL AIRPORT!!!
Yesterday our blog community was FIRST to dispute the Kansas City Star "news" about a new airport via Prez Trump.
And now . . .
THE KANSAS CITY NEWSPAPER WAS FORCED TO ADMIT THAT THEIR FAKE NEWS WAS COMPLETELY DISAVOWED BY PREZ TRUMP INSIDERS!!!
Citizens For Responsible Government Kansas City called up Congressman Graves and earned this tidbit:
Rep. Graves: "Right now no plans or projects are finalized or authorized, but we'll continue to stay involved in infrastructure decisions and ensure the federal projects undertaken in the KC area are those which local people support and from which local communities benefit.”
More to the point . . .
INTERNETS JUGGERNAUT POLITIO MYTH-BUSTED THE KANSAS CITY STAR!!!
Checkit:
INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT LIST NOT FROM TRANSITION: A former member of the Trump transition’s landing team for DOT said a list of infrastructure projects supposedly tied to the new administration is actually fake. “We saw it and confirmed it did not come from the transition team,” Brigham McCown, the chairman of the Alliance for Innovation and Infrastructure, told our Lauren Gardner. McClatchy reported that the list shows the projects that the Trump administration would possibly want to prioritize as a part of an infrastructure plan. But some of the projects listed aren’t requesting funding from the federal government. “Some of these projects have been completed, some are in development, some are good candidates, and others would not be the types of projects we would have recommended,” McCown said.
Sadly, the newspaper was forced to admit as much just a couple of seconds ago . . .
Kansas City Star: A draft list of 50 major infrastructure projects compiled and shared by President Donald Trump’s transition team was put together by a Washington-based consulting firm, McClatchy has learned.
And so . . .
We can talk about credibility and journalism all night but the fact remains that THE KANSAS CITY STAR WAS WRONG in imagining that Prez Trump wants to build a new airport for Mayor Sly and our blog community said so FIRST.
You decide . . .
The infrastructure money would be better spent our sewer system and evaluating the water department.
ReplyDeleteI think it was Super Dave who called this one too. It just didn't make sense. Trump is mart enough not to get into bed with Mayor James.
DeleteTo their credit. The rest of the news in Kc has been in a constant Ventura grief loop.
DeleteAnd no expect a litany of angry reporters attacking Tony because they're scared about their jobs.
ReplyDeleteNot our fault that you guys didn't take a second to think that your consultant tipsters could be lying to you.
Take everything with a grain of salt. Be calm, patient, courteous and kind.
DeleteAnd somebody should probably fire Tony Berg before he blames this on everyone but himself.
Trump is not going to listen to the KC Hillary democrats: Sly, Justus, Taylor, McManus, Shields. So KC call Senator Blunt and tell we want the sewers, or I-70 fixed not the airport.
ReplyDeleteBetter to read facebook or twitter not the star!
ReplyDeletewiden i-70, and leave it open to adapt to driverless cars.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, didn't the new pulitzer prize winner on the editorial board fact check this news?
ReplyDeleteWow people really do read what I say.
ReplyDeleteNo really, anyone with half an once of common sense could see that this story was full of more BS than the Kansas City Stockyards were back in the day.
Well I guess that's fair since people call out your lies, biases, falsehoods, mischaracterizations and truth-twisting every hour of the day.
ReplyDeleteRemember that one back in 2009 that had you saying you called McClatchy and they you over the phone The Star was going to printing as many as three of its daily editions?
Yeah.
A lie.

Not to mention the Louie Wright one. That one paid off big didn't it?
^^^ that why you're reading TKC late on a Wednesday night, participating in this forum and searching through the archives???
ReplyDeleteYeah, you just totally can't stand the lies!
You're addicted. Deal with that addiction and get help.
Have you read the Pitch? They're putting out GREAT stuff!
This phony list was out on Monday. The STAR is a rag.
ReplyDeleteBut Good news for KCMO Degenerate Mayor Sly James is that TRUMP is gonna build a concrete "Insane Asylum" for Sly's worthless Commie Ass !!!!

ReplyDeleteJust don't be a hypocrite.
ReplyDeleteDon't jump up and down like a our year old, saying: "See! See! Toldja!"
*four year old
DeleteThey expanded the op-ed board ( w old people... gag me) - what do you expect? There could be more reporting and or journalism, but no we get geriatrics's finest ( ???) who are more divisive than a book of antonyms.
ReplyDeleteIf they are too old to be reporters- retire them and let them show up as a blogger so they can merit their worth!
This one didn't pass the smell test when I first saw it.
ReplyDeleteIsn't life in the KCMO "Mental" Bubble fabulous?
Just seriously fix me some sewers and processing plants. This will improve the lives of residents for years and years to come.
ReplyDeleteRing! "Hello, Tony Berg here!"
ReplyDelete"Tony Berg! This is Donald Trump! I want to make KCI yuuuuuuuge!"
"Great! But wait a second. Why does my caller ID say Mark VanLoh?"
"Nevermind about that! Let me send you the fantastic plan I've drafted to replace the weak, loser 3 terminal Kansas City airport!"
