Lawyer Suing Oil Company Admits 'No Proof' that Fracking Fluid Contamina


The lawyer, Leslie Lewis, stood before the jury and stated:

This is not a case — this is not a case about toxic materials ending up in the water. We do not have proof of that. We don't have proof of that. This is not about fracking fluid appearing in the water. Hydraulic fracturing materials, we don't have proof of that.

I love how you completely suck at this.

The link goes to a site called "TruthRevolt"....which is run by David Horowitz. Someone who is a complete fraud and a con man. For 5 minutes in the '60s Horowitz was a "radical" that hung out with the Black Panthers. For far longer Horowitz has been taking money from the Right to portray himself as a "leftist that saw the light" and repeat whatever lies they pay him for. In this case, fracking. So, strike one right there.

The article highlights the bogus documentary "Fracknation", which is a piece of crap paid for by the Right and oil companies. Zero credibility for that film and its filmmakers-

"It comes in the form of a documentary film titled, “FrackNation,” whose co-directors' funding in the past came from Donors Capital and Donors Trust, referred to by Mothers Jones' Andy Kroll as “the dark-money ATM of the right” and a major source of funding for climate change denial."

Strike two, right there.

No independent verfication for that quote from Lewis, and certainly no context for it. The quote comes another TruthRevolt article (ZERO credibility there), which takes it from a Facebook post by the hack who made "Fracknation." Massive FAIL everywhere you look, and I love how that proves you and the rest of these clowns have no credibility. Lewis and "Gaslnad" makers win.
