CMV: Recent testimonies have damaged the credibility of the media.

See, this is the thing. Once you decide "The media is wrong!" then anything the media says is wrong, even if it hasn't been disproven. So the reports that Kushner and Sessions are people of interest? Just conjecture!

That is what happens when you lose credibility. The problem, as I see it, is people who are fierce anti-Trumpers don't see it as a big deal. The hypocrisy is during Obama's 8 years it was considered a big deal when Fox News would do the same thing.

No, he didn't. He said that he interpreted Trump's request as regarding Flynn specifically and not the Russia investigation more generally.

From the transcript:

BURR: Did any individual working for this administration, including the Justice Department, ask you to stop the Russian investigation?

COMEY: No.

I understand it's pretty clear to you, but this is far from a universal response, and I frankly don't see much evidence for it. Why do you lose your hard standard for validity and confirmation when making an assessment like this? I also get the strong feeling, based on your responses, that you are not centrally interested in the specific view in the OP but rather in something more general about the Russia investigation.

I am simply correcting your statements. You began from a position that was incorrect. We can't have a discussion if you are going to use incorrect statements as "undeniable facts".
