The Republicans rushed to leak Comey's memos to the press without reading anything he wrote. To get the spin they want they're going to have to do a lot of out of context cherry picking to build a fiction story that makes Trump smell better than an old gas bag.

One thing that caught me attention was Trump's apparent short term memory loss. He can't remember anything! Comey documents every time he repeated himself, often in the same conversation, and frequently saying something that is directly opposite of the first time. Now I'm going to be wondering if all his lies are really more about senile dementia or alzheimers???

Not one Faux Nooze watcher will bother to read the report. They will take what is told to them as gospel truth. So, yes, they can cherry pick to their hearts content, and their viewers will eat it right up. You just wait till the message boards and twitter start filling up with RW memes based on the report.
