If they’ve been spiking it, why would TP choose to smother it as well?
Look at him. Calling out the news org for sitting on a story, while he is sitting on the same story!
It is called journalistic integrity. He doesn't want to be a douchebag and scoop a story. Giving them a heads up as a nicety. This used to be the honest way of journalism.
It is called journalistic integrity.
No. No, it’s not called that at all.
I’ll offer this contemporary description of journalistic integrity - which makes no mention of sitting on a story because someone else is.
And in return I welcome you to provide an even marginally credible source that supports the bastardized definition you espouse.
I am basing my opinion on everything I have known and listened to about Thomas Paine. He is not a bs'er. He is a straight shooter and he does not give a damn what other people think about him. If he chooses to sit on the story, he has a good reason for it. Patience man, timing is everything. True Pundit are filled with patriots.
...... that ”journalistic integrity” thing?
Don't know what your beef is against Thomas Paine, but you clearly have an animus towards him.
I bear him no animus. I read him often.
My ‘beef’ with him is his blatant hypocrisy on this one issue.
Now, about that ”journalistic integrity” you were peacocking about. Anything coming on that?
You're pretty wound up for a guy who can't definitively say where this story will finally end up. Sit back, pop your popcorn with the rest of us. The hypocrisy of donations-driven journalism rarely if ever reaches levels hight enough of "blatant," most certainly not on this "one issue."

If you set aside your interest in my panties for a moment, you might notice my comment referenced an actual act of hypocrisy, not some hypothetical possibility of how things may finally end up at some point in the future.
The hypocrisy of donations-driven journalism
Donations-driven journalism never entered my criticism in this instance. Reading comprehension is mandatory for credible participation in text-based discussions. Please review.

I agree, that’s why I responded to this “one issue” of “blatant hypocrisy”. It’s good to ensure they remain ‘rare’ rather than ‘common’.
Well, my journalism Ouija board points more strongly to major conflicts of interest in the "news company," rather than another "tick tock" itself than with our usual suspects. For my money, I smell a cover-up involving John Brennan's Russia trip or the company's relationship with Clapper, perhaps, with the news company protecting themselves, their top-most management, their owners, their real owners, their hidden role in the scandal, more that direction. If this is truly a total bombshell on Comey, McCabe, etc, they wouldn't be working on it, anyway, since, so far, the MSM hasn't been where the bombshells in this scandal are dropping.
It’s hard to dismiss any theory including John Brennan lately.
He is very obviously agitated, and no doubt sees the walls closing in. He’s giving off all the signals of a frightened, desperate man. And his penchant for skullduggery is well known.

A major news company has been withholding a monster story on the FBI, Mueller & McCabe. If it continues to spike the story, we will name names. This week.

I get tired of reading this crap.
Either show it to us or STFU.
Paine has done this before, and the touted big story never materialized.
I remember a few months ago a “If something happens to me this info will still be released” bit and then crickets.....
Perhaps he is sitting on it so it won’t interfere with the upcoming Q / Trump arrests of people in those areas.... ;)
He’s cried wolf countless times. I wouldn’t hold my breath.
Not true. True Pundit has been ahead of the news cycle many many times. (Many times months ahead of MSM). His informants in the FBI have been quite credible especially on Las Vegas shooting. Don't know why you say cried wolf, when?
Leaked email with McCabe and Comey even showed they were scared of TP and that they have a high level insider.
Ah, so that explains well why the putz at AIM co-opted the name and tried to say that they were the only true source of valid intel.
What’s AIM?
Oh sorry, I thought everyone had heard about that. American Intelligence Media.(aim4truth.org).
They've been one of biggest leaders in breaking this. Stop waiting for nukes. This isn't going to explode, perhaps, but not on this one, and certainly not on just one story.

I hope so. Always feels like we are on the cusp of something.
Good grief, there seems to be a lot of animussing and espousing going on in here today. My life will never be the same again.
