Since he was born in The Bronx and his name is Rob, and my name is Roberto, and I'm living on City Island we're neighbors and Tocayos. Rob is best known as Meathead, no fakakta, that I can tell you. But more about that below. I went to watch Rob @robreiner Reiner's latest motion picture with good friends. Three gave the filmmaker a thumbs up and one gave it a sideways thumb.
The true story focuses on Knight Ridder Newspapers refusal to buy into the lies and propaganda The Bush administration was pushing about weapons of mass destruction. After the film, Reiner mentioned that European news agency Reuters does a good job but failed to acknowledge The AP, in the #USA https://www.apnews.com/tag/apf-topnews https://www.ap.org
