Unless you are a really amazing person, you have probably at some time in your life said or done something stupid, rude, classless, and just awful. If you tell me you haven&#8217;t, I would seriously doubt it. Unfortunately, in the age of cell phones, there moments can be immortalized and brought out at the most inconvenient time. It&#8217;s the modern-day equivalent of your mother showing your naked baby pictures to your boyfriend. Well, some new information has come out about a sneak attack using an old event.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/big-journalism\/2017\/02\/23\/nbc-news-behind-video-leak-to-hurt-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\">Breitbart<\/a> reported Thursday on some recent discoveries about an <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Tape recorder\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tape_recorder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">audio tape<\/a> that was supposed to end the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Donald Trump\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Donald_Trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Donald Trump<\/a> campaign for President.<\/p>\n<p>The article quotes a <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"New York Post\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nypost.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"homepage\">New York Post<\/a> story:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>The infamous \u201c<a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Access Hollywood\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hulu.com\/access-hollywood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"hulu\">Access Hollywood<\/a>\u201d tape \u2014 in which President Donald Trump bragged about grabbing women by the hoo-ha \u2014 was an inside job, leaked by an <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"NBC News\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/NBC_News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">NBC News<\/a> staffer on <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Billy Bush\" href=\"http:\/\/billybushshow.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"homepage\">Billy Bush<\/a>\u2019s own \u201c<a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Today (U.S. TV program)\" href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?ll=40.7584,-73.9791&amp;spn=1.0,1.0&amp;q=40.7584,-73.9791 (Today%20%28U.S.%20TV%20program%29)&amp;t=h\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"geolocation\">Today<\/a>\u201d show, multiple sources tell Page Six.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>\u201cThe tape was leaked by the NBC News division, by somebody at the \u2018Today\u2019 show,\u201d says one source. \u201c<a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"NBC Universal\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nbcuni.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"homepage\">NBC<\/a> News knew for a while about the existence of the tape. Billy himself had told them about it.

But the full tape, which was leaked to the <em><a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Washington Post\" href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"homepage\">Washington Post<\/a><\/em>, featured Bush goading the president. The leak got Bush fired from \u201cToday,\u201d which was, according to the source, part of the plan.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>\u201cThe leaked tape served a dual purpose: It helped get Bush out of the way \u2014 <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Matt Lauer\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Matt_Lauer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Matt Lauer<\/a> didn\u2019t like him and felt he was a liability \u2014 and NBC thought it would derail Trump,\u201d says the source. \u201cBut all it did was crush Billy, and, ironically, his own network was behind it.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is an example of major media trying to bring down a presidential candidate.

I don&#8217;t know how the mainstream media got so biased, but it is now no longer worth paying attention to.
