>They're coming on thick and strong with attempts to discredit the source because the source is seriously lacking in credibility the way they could do this correctly is to contradict assange's claims with evidence... do that, and if their evidence is valid, assange's claims collapse. but they aren't doing that; they can't do that. here is the recipe upcoming from the clinton campaign: 1. attack source 2. escalate attacks on source 3. deny claims of source categorically 4. deny context of facts that source puts forth 5. deny specifics of facts that source puts forth 6. deny involvement of high level people 7. throw scapegoats 8. deny witting involvement of high level people 9. admit item numbers 3 through 8, sequentially, as separate steps 10. media "loses attention" of the story before reaching the point where high level people admit that the allegations of the source are correct this cycle will take a while, maybe a year or so.
