Intentional or not…CBS News provided an out for Nancy Pelosi after false claims regarding James Comey
An interview House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) gave CBS News Tuesday morning offered a window into why Americans’ trust in the mainstream media recently sunk to “a new low,” as Gallup described it.
