MSNBC Pushed False Iranian Propaganda That 30 American Troops Were Killed In Missile Attack

[bigrebnc1775]

If you aren't outraged by what MSNBC did to those parents you should be ashamed of yourself.

You're an idiot. They reported an unconfirmed report, and identified it as such. Quit whining you big baby.

Since when has the media reported unconfirmed sources that troops were US killed? that irresponsible. Imagine anxiety they put some parents through.

All the time. The problem is reporting unconfirmed information without designating it is unconfirmed. Watch fox if you want to see examples of that on a regular basis.

Disagree. When a major network reports anything, there is an assumed level of credibility. It is not enough to say "unconfirmed" especially given the enormous stakes of these events. We aren't talking about Juicy Smollet's unconfirmed report.

You're wrong. Quit whining.

I guess you're going to take Iran's offer of 80 million dollars you disgusting little prick.

You seem to guess lots of goofy stuff that doesn't turn out like you thought.

Since when have the media ever gone to the enemy for sources?
THESE FUCKERS NEED TO LOSE THEIR FIRST AMENDMENT FOR THE ABUSE THEY JUST CREATED

When did you first discover that you hate the constitution?

So you openly show you don't give a shit about parents and family members of U.S. Troops in Iraq?

I'm a little ashamed to laugh at someone as crazy as you, but I can live with it.

If you aren't outraged by what MSNBC did to those parents you should be ashamed of yourself.

You're an idiot. They reported an unconfirmed report, and identified it as such. Quit whining you big baby.

Maybe if you got your head out of your ass long enough to consider the situation, you wouldn't be so flippant about it.

What if you were the parent of one of those stationed at that base......you'd be worried sick for your kid's life. Only to find out OOPSIE, we just had to report something that disagreed with the Don.

Could you even imagine the emotional & mental rollercoaster those parents must have felt?? Of course not, your head is buried to the hilt.

Of course it was scary for the family members, and I am sorry they had to go through that. It was still the responsibility of legitimate news sources to report what was said by the people involved in the incident. They did say the claim was unconfirmed.

Strange that MSNBC was the only source to that and now the story can't be found...….if it was responsible reporting, it would still be there along with a corrected followup

I'm sure you do remember all the unconfirmed reports about Rogelio Martinez.
Right wingers still claim the border patrol agent was murdered when the FBI said there was no evidence of any attack.

Now that we have learned NOTHING IMPORTANT OR ANY MILITARY were killed, MSNBC looks like an ARM of Iranian propaganda!...NEVER TO BE TRUSTED AGAIN!

------------

MSNBC pushed the unverified report from Iranian state media that claimed to have killed 30 U.S. service members in their ballistic missile attack on Tuesday evening.

The Iranian claim of U.S. causalities in Iraq also circulated on social media despite the Department of Defense quashing the rumors.

"They launched the first wave of attacks in revenge for Soleimani’s killing. We're getting reports as you've just mentioned They have launched a second wave of attacks in the same vicinity. We're also getting unconfirmed reports from state media saying that they have leveled Al-Assad base in Iraq and they have killed 30 U.S. troops. Now, Iran is saying that if there is any retaliation from the United States from these latest two attacks that they have launched by the IRGC directly, they will target all U.S. bases," NBC's Tehran Bureau Chief Ali Arouzi told MSNBC host Chris Hayes an hour after the Pentagon confirmed the attack.

The Pentagon's press statement about the missile attack was released almost a full hour before MSNBC's segment aired. The press statement did not mention any U.S. or Iraqi causalities from the attack.

Fake news.

Google, "We're also getting unconfirmed reports from state media saying that they have leveled Al-Assad" and get a whopping 2 hits. One from fake news Townhall and the other referencing fake news Townhall...

 

[Faun]

They clearly identified those reports as "UNCONFIRMED"

From the OP

We're also getting unconfirmed reports from state media saying that they have leveled Al-Assad base in Iraq and they have killed 30 U.S. troops.

C'mon, you can't expect these yahoos to understand a 3 syllable word.

So reporting unconfirmed stuff is only OK if you can use it to whine, right?

So was MSNBC reporting what Tehran was telling Iranians, or were they reporting it as fact. Since they said the report is "unconfirmed", I suspect you are putting a spin on it that Hayes is reporting this as fact instead of reporting it as an Iranian blurb.

They clearly said it was an unconfirmed report from "state media" (that's Iranian media)
