737239, I don't even think it is wrong to take a dig at the media

if you have the right angle. particularly in pursuit of sensational storylines in the 24/7 news cycles, you can have people out there on some extreme bullshit.

(remembering the Iraq War, and the run up to it, for example. too many people forget that, while "never forgetting" 9/11)

it's just a problem now because you have Dolt 45 screaming about "fake news" and kicking reporters out of the room.

like the FBI, I really hate having to defend CNN, because of the above.

I also hear the complaints about them making up (possibly malicious) shit about a person who is dead. the response to that should be, this is a biopic, which means by rule, some things are going to be completely made up. Odious as it may be. It's not as if this film is presenting itself as a documentary of historical record. Let that colour your review.
