Former FBI Director James Comey’s testimony included some details that Richard Grenell doesn’t think are getting enough interest from the mainstream media, and it’s not hard to see why:
Breaking: DC reporters are NOT tweeting the line where Comey destroys their anonymous sourced narratives.

Gee, why would that be?
And outed an anonymous source — his own friend and adviser — in the process. https://t.co/rPZGlkCWAm

In the hearing, Comey called #FakeNews on a New York Times report that cited anonymous sources sayin Trump campaign officials met with Russians prior to the 2016 election. Comey also admitted he had a friend leak a Trump story to the New York Times:
Blunt: So you didn't inform your superiors of the Flynn conversation, but you thought it was appropriate to leak to a friend?
Comey: Yes.— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) June 8, 2017
Columbia Law Prof Daniel Richman confirms to @ZCohenCNN that he is the friend that provided excerpts of the Comey memo to reporters.

If Comey can give memo to friend to distribute publicly, why can't he give it to the US Senate and House?

Add it all up and the media’s “anonymously sourced” reports get even more questionable.
