How are your pension and 401k contributions coming along?  Still going to retire a rich man in your 50’s?

Your liver will give out in ten years. Not that it will matter, death will be better than a life of poverty living on the streets sucking cock for a tin of cat food.

rawstory.com
is BIASED

By their own admission:

Raw Story is a progressive news site that focuses on stories often ignored in the mainstream media. While giving coverage to the big stories of the day, we also bring our readers’ attention to policy, politics, legal and human rights stories that get ignored in an infotainment culture driven solely by pageviews.

Their original reporting has also been referenced by MSNBC’s Ed Schultz and Lawrence O’Donnell, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Real Time with Bill Maher and Countdown with Keith Olbermann; and were a finalist for an Online Journalism Awards in 2008 in the “Investigative, Small Site” category for a story about improper partisan influence in the prosecution of former Governor Don Siegelman of Alabama.

They scooped everyone with a report about Ntripid receiving a U.S. contract wherein Ntripid would create fake online personas worldwide.

It’s called a liberal mag, but likely by those who either do not know the difference between ‘liberal’ and ‘progressive’, or do not care about the difference.

Caveat Emptor: The site does have a satire/parody section.

Addendum 11-15-2016: We had hoped that marking this as real-but-admittedly-progressive would give the appropriate pause. To be clear: Rawstory has an agenda, as much as Breitbart does — only with different leanings. As with any source that wants to be an actual source of news versus one of entertainment, you should take the time to investigate their facts.

Hackers Release Dozens of Law Firm’s Emails Citing Trump, but There’s No ‘Dirty Laundry’

The ransomware hackers who stole gigabytes of data from a prominent New York entertainment law firm posted a batch of emails Saturday on the dark web, which they previously hyped as containing incriminating information on President Donald Trump.

But there’s nothing damning in the collection of 169 emails, which the hackers illegally obtained from Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks’ systems.

Indeed, only a few of the emails published online Saturday actually refer to Donald Trump in any meaningful context. Those include discussions of satirical references to him in certain TV shows and ads, as well as his 2015 interview with Barbara Walters on ABC News’ “20/20.”

Meanwhile, among the hacked emails were newsletters with links to articles about the current White House occupant. In several cases, the emails included “trump” in the verb sense of “to override,” having nothing to do with Donald Trump. A few others were correspondence with a company whose offices were in Trump Tower in New York. Another email chain referenced a client who was staying at Trump International Hotel & Tower New York.

 

 

In short, it’s nothing resembling the “ton of dirty laundry” the cyberattackers claimed they possessed on Donald Trump.

The criminals’ claims to have revealing info on Trump in connection with their hack of Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks were puzzling, given that the law firm has never represented Donald Trump or the Trump Organization.

The hackers claimed the emails they released Saturday contain “the most harmless information” about Trump — apparently trying to imply they are holding back more compelling material. But considering that what they published contained nothing remotely interesting, it seems likely that the cybercriminals are vastly exaggerating the value of the data they’ve stolen.

Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks refused to pay the cyberthieves’ initial $21 million ransom, after which the hackers doubled their demand to $42 million. Now that it’s clear the law firm, which has brought in the FBI to conduct a criminal investigation, will not even negotiate with the criminal ring, the hackers are claiming they will auction off the client data they stole on the dark web.

The attack on the Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks network, which appears to have occurred on or around May 7, allegedly resulted in the theft of documents on multiple music and entertainment figures. The hackers have claimed those include Lady Gaga, Madonna, Nicki Minaj, Bruce Springsteen, Mary J. Blige, Ella Mai, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, Cam Newton, Bette Midler, Jessica Simpson, Priyanka Chopra, Idina Menzel and Run DMC.
