A series of text messages released Wednesday reveal that former FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok was in contact with reporters at the New York Times and Washington Post regarding stories they published about the FBI’s investigation into alleged collusion between Russia and President Trump’s campaign during the spring of 2017, according to a series of texts obtained by SaraACarter.com.
The text messages suggest that Strzok, along with his paramour, former FBI Attorney Lisa Page, had been in contact with reporters from both newspapers. Strzok specifically mentioned two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times writer Michael Schmidt his text message to Page.
Strzok wrote, “Also, apparently Times is angry with us about the WP (Washington Post) scoop and earlier discussion we had about the Schmidt piece that had so many inaccuracies. Too much to detail here, but I told Mike (redacted) and Andy they need to understand we were absolutely dealing in good faith with them,” Strzok texted to Page on April 14, 2017. “The FISA one, coupled with the Guardian piece from yesterday.” (The New York Times did not respond immediately for comment. The Washington Post also did not respond immediately for comment.)

Sara Carter, thankfully you are one of the few reporters, who reports facts and you work hard to obtain the facts, unlike the Fake News reporters. Keep up the great work and I love seeing you on Fox. With regard to Strzok and Page, if we had a real Attorney General, these two clowns would be in prison. Shame on you, Jeff RINO Establishment Sessions.
IF people still don’t believe the FBI is corrupted by insane acts like this, imo nothing will convince them.
Ironic, since Sara is the one who deserves a Pulitzer. But I guess she isn’t in on the liberal loop. Just like Obama and his tear a nation to peace’s prize. She just does her homework. And these to children need to be shamed, and jailed.
I wonder, is there a list of all reporters who’ve won a Pulitzer, and what their ‘political affiliation’ is? Would be nice to see how FEW republican leaning ones won.
One would be a fool to think that ANY news organization is honest or ethical.
But when the an FBI member starts playing footsie with the news media.
They need to be shot or at least put in prison.
I vote for shot.
I volunteer for trigger time. But this might take a while, there are plenty of participants in this coup attempt that need to have justice meted out. At just over 3200 FPS.
Na, hung, drawn and quartered!
IMO this is prima facia evidence of the media and the FBI colluding to screw over trump.
Unfortunately, they were colluding to screw over you and me. and most importantly, the Constitution, as well as the President.
Hence my “hung drawn and quartered” comment. IIRC of british history, that was considered a worse fate than just being executed..
These text messages would be easier to read if these two wouldn’t always talk in code. i.e. “Are you available for a 5 pm BJ?” means “Is that new fake news leak ready to go out yet?”
“Only if you do that special thing you do” means “I’m putting the finishing touches on it, then we’re good to go!”
Love ya!
My question is “What Changed?” Were we just naive in younger years? Did this crap go on back then and we just didn’t know about it? Has the Internet given us the ability to learn more, or are we speculating and listening more to rumors? Is the Internet leading to more false information than true information? How is one to tell today what is true and accurate and what is not? As a kid, we all knew certain supermarket tabuloids printed lots of garbage. Has the Internet helped, or hurt our ability to see, read and hear the truth?
I think it always went on, we are just hearing about it more often.
tarnishedcopper, I suspect the media were ALWAYS left-leaning and in cahoots with the Dems to “control” the narrative as a way of advancing their Leftist LOON agenda. I think they just worked harder at HIDING their bias until Obama was elected, and they were SO entranced with HIM that they started humping his leg like besotted dogs!
When Obama was elected–and ESPECIALLY when they thought Hillary was a SHOO-IN to succeed him in 2016 and FINISH the job of COMMUNIZING the US, they GLEFULLY threw off their masks, revealing themselves for the disloyal, subversive Leftist LOONS they have always been, and started doing their premature victory dance.
THEN the UNTHINKABLE happened, and Hillary LOST–and there they were, with their bare Communist faces hanging out, and NOWHERE to hide. So now they’re just OPENLY left-tilted and complicit with the Commucrats and not even TRYING to hide it. They’re using their hatred of Pres. Trump as an EXCUSE for their craven sucking up to the Left, but the truth is, they were EGREGIOUSLY guilty of that LONG before Pres. Trump appeared on the scene!
Which is why i don’t feel any of them deserve ANY protections of the 1st amendment.
The msm has been an arm of the CIA for sometime, but at least for years there were real reporters digging for the truth. Now it’s mostly just a bunch of airheads of a type of elitist, American aristocracy.
Don’t you mean they’ve been the political wing of the DNC??
The question about “then” and now is not about discerning what is fact and fiction. The difference is that in prior decades (Go back 39-40 years) the media was comprised of journalists and those people dug for details, rather than accepting bulleted talking points doled out by groups with agendas. Today the internet has served to expose the lies, the Corruption and bad actors. But today to get facts and real truth one must do their own homework… That which was once done by reporters.
And we should bless the internet for opening Pandora’s box. But one group stands out above all others as seeker of truth, responsible for exposing more of the Deep State underbelly than any and all others. That org is JUDICIAL WATCH. Subscribe to it, support it with donations. They have successfully brought hundreds of lawsuits seeking govt docs in FOI release. Were it not for them we’d know little facts about what is going on.
The difference is that there are very few journalists around that will dig to get to the truth of a news story. Sara Carter is one of the few, rare exceptions and a beacon of light exposing all of this underhanded corruption. She is the highlight of Sean Hannity’s show and always has something new, interesting and newsworthy to report that you will not get on any of the other cable news channels. Only problem is that she is on far too little. This lady truly has all the goods on what went on behind the scenes from the time Trump announced his candidacy thru the time he was inaugurated as President and beyond. She should be given her own news program on Fox so she doesn’t have to rush and cram it in. Always seems like she has alot more to tell the audience but time just never allows for it. All of the other cable news programs are full of political pundits spouting off their worthless opinions on why they hate Trump and why he is worse than 9/11. I truly believe that the information that Sara Carter has revealed will eventually make its way to a court of law and those who broke the law in so many countless ways will be held accountable. This far exceeds anything that was exposed by Watergate. I only hope that she has some type of security detail protecting her and her loved ones because she’s exposing the worse of the deep state and they can’t be liking that!! Keep up the great work Sara-it’s greatly appreciated!!
