Journalism this year. someone even mailed trump s 1995 tax return to the new york times. but what never leaked? raw footage from the apprentice. number six, good-bye gawker. a jury ruling that the site innovated hulk hogan s privacy when it published parts of the sex tape featuring the former wrestler. a multimillion dollar judgment forced gawker into bankruptcy and the flagship site was later shut down a warning to journalists everywhere. in a surprise twist, silicon valley billionaire peter thiel revealed he had been secretly bang rolling the lawsuit. his revenge for what he believed was gawker oufting him in 2007. number five, fake news stories. posted on the web polluting facebook time lines and twitter streams. some now wondering if it helped tilt the election for trump although facebook says no. we don t think it swayed the election but we take that responsibility really seriously. facebook and google did announce steps to halt the flow of ad dollars to the creators of
Personal animus between president obama and prime minister netanyahu or if you don t buy into this is personal at all? oh, it s highly personal. the foundation of the u.s./israeli relationship actually is better than it s ever been. provision of u.s. security assistance, support for israeli anti-missile promise, intelligence and strategic cooperation are at their height. but the two leaders, netanyahu and obama, just never got along. and you re now seeing this come out in a very negative way right at the end of the administration, especially after mr. netanyahu appears to have endorsed mr. trump. it s really a shame that we re not looking at what s important here which is the strength of the bilateral relationship. the netanyahu spokesman said yesterday that israel is still committed to a two-state solution. but kerry says netanyahu s
