The New York Times updated its story reporting a new assault allegation against Brett Kavanaugh to clarify that the woman at the center of the incident does not recall it

One year later, the Kavanaugh controversy still rages. Photo: Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images On Sunday, the New York Times updated its story reporting a new assault allegation against Brett Kavanaugh, which had drawn widespread attention, to clarify that the woman at the center of the incident does not recall it.

That clarification put already substantial right-wing backlash to the story into overdrive, with many conservative defenders of Kavanaugh — most prominent among them President Trump — alleging journalistic malpractice or worse. The story also includes new details about Deborah Ramirez, who last year alleged that Kavanaugh thrust his penis in her face at a party during their time together at Yale. The Times reports that at least seven people, including Ramirez’s mother, heard about the incident shortly after it occurred, but that the FBI, in its seemingly perfunctory investigation of Kavanaugh’s past conduct just before his confirmation vote, did not talk to any of them.

NYT Reporters Say They Uncovered New Sexual Misconduct Claim Against KavanaughTwo New York Times reporters say they’ve uncovered a previously unreported account of sexual misconduct allegedly carried out by Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh when he was a student at Yale I would sue nytimes and the students making the false comments. Justice Kavanaugh should also sue Balsey Ford. The Civil Court deals in Facts, not in fake facts as the court of public opinion does. TheJusticeDept should step up it's investigation into Ford for her scam. This is underhanded, even for the mainstream media. Note that the American people are watching, we're well aware of what you're doing. Eventually, there will come a day of reckoning for the left and the leftist press in this country... What the media is doing to Justice Kavanaugh is sickening. Nobody with any sense believes a word of this garbage, we see it for exactly what it is: a coordinated attempt to ruin an innocent man's life. The scary thing is, this legitimizes false allegations by unhinged nuts.
