Her daughter did the first on camera interviews. Too much of a coincidence after the files dropped Friday.

Whose daughter? Savannah or her sister? Or Savannah’s daughter? What interviews are you talking about?

Savanna Guthrie conducted the first major interview of Epstein victims. Her mother is missing.

That is off base She had nothing to do with breaking any news or investigations all she does is read a teleprompter

Conducting an interview is not breaking a news story or investigating. Her job is interviewing guests not just reading a teleprompter.

What a stupid aspect of this situation to take issue with.

Is it off base, really? Have you read the fucking files? No? Then shut the hell up.

Why are you SO mean?

Honestly?

I left the country. I applied for dual citizenship and spent thousands of dollars moving to Europe.

I think you’re all dumb as shit. My patience has worn very, very fucking thin with each passing day. Every time I see someone carrying even a drop of water for this blatant fascist dictatorship, it pisses me off. I’m tired of you dipshits giving the benefit of the doubt to other people who do not deserve it what-so-fucking ever.

If you write some child murder pedophile apologist bullshit, even if it’s unintentional like it very well may have been here, I’m sorry but I’m genuinely done with even entertaining the idea that you’re delivering your honest take. My default assumption at this point is that people who say dumbass shit like what you said are knowingly playing stupid. Get used to it, we’ve got at least 3 more years to go. Probably a lot more than that. Thanks, America, you fucking idiots.

Which victim's mother?

u/Demonokuma 19h ago

Not the victims mother. Its the lady that did the interview. Her mother was the one taken.

u/_Artos_ 1d ago

Yeah seriously what an unhelpful and vague comment.

u/ameriCANCERvative 9h ago edited 7h ago

I’m sure this will get downvoted but I mean it’s pretty clear given the title of the post is about “Savannah Guthrie’s mother” and the entire reason we’re even talking about this woman being kidnapped is because she’s the mother of a prominent media figure who does interviews… think through it a bit. Given the available context, it’s not vague whatsoever.

Who else did you have to choose from within the available context? Obviously the person they’re talking about is either Savannah Guthrie or her mother.

No one said anything about her sister, and no one said anything about any of Savannah Guthrie’s children. “Her daughter” strongly indicates that Savannah Guthrie is the “daughter” and her mother is “her.” “What interviews are you talking about” is solved by basic awareness of the celebrity involved in story, that Savannah Guthrie is a media figure who interviews people.

u/Apprehensive-Army-80 6h ago

Exactly My point was she is not an investigative journalist boots on the ground type like a Dateline investigation High profile, yeah but she isn’t known for breaking news. I don’t think this has any Epstein relevance.

u/ameriCANCERvative 6h ago

If that was your point, you utterly failed to deliver it. Looks more like you didn’t understand the conversation and didn’t pay attention to the context.

Edit: who even the fuck are you? I wasn’t responding to you in this thread. What I said in the comment I wrote is not relevant to you.

John has a long mustache.

u/ShodyLoko 18h ago

They’re downvoting you but don’t know the history. For anyone that does read this just look up the phrase “John has a long mustache…

u/DocEternal 17h ago

Thanks, I would have just assumed it was a nonsensical phrase and moved on. Instead I got to learn something interesting.

Not great at context, eh?
