Calls to cancel New York Times subscriptions emerge over report identifying Trump whistleblower

Calls to cancel subscriptions to The New York Times reached fever pitch on Thursday night following outrage over the newspaper’s decision to identify the Trump whistleblower as a CIA official.

In an article published earlier Thursday, the Times revealed that the whistleblower at the center of a political showdown in Washington is a male CIA officer who had previously been detailed to the White House.

The “exclusive details” were revealed in a report based on corroborated accounts of three unnamed sources, not the whistleblower himself. The Times also reported that lawyers for the whistleblower refused to confirm that he worked for the CIA and said that publishing information about him was "dangerous." (Fox News has not confirmed The Times' report.)

All the Lies That's Fit to Print.

It's Prog-on-Prog, I'm good with it. :popcorn:

Keeping the "whistleblower" annoymorous as long as possible was an important element in this fauxny scandaloid production. Trump short-circuited it by releasing the phone call transcript - contrary to Dems' expectations, I suspect - and this report narrowed the search for the Prog spy, and via him, his sources (if any).
